Michael A. McManus Jr., President and CEO stated, “We are off to a very strong start for the first half of fiscal 2015. We are particularly pleased with the strong revenue increase across our BoneScalpel, SonicOne and SonaStar product lines in the U.S. where units are mainly consigned. We have made great progress in getting our products accepted as a major instrument in an expanded number of medical institutions throughout the country. In addition to strong U.S. results, we experienced sales growth across virtually all international regions. Our internal sales team and our international distributors continued their excellent performance in the first half of fiscal 2015.”

Mr. McManus continued, “As evidenced by the results of the quarter, our ultrasonic surgical instruments are achieving higher levels of acceptance by hospitals and surgeons around the world. The safety profile of our BoneScalpel, resulting in less blood loss, less bone fragmentation and reduction in overall time required to complete a surgical procedure, is gaining increased recognition. The same can be said of our SonaStar and SonicOne products. With the SonicOne we have shown a better way to debride a wound to preserve live tissue with less bleeding and a reduction in bacteria. We have also established a real benefit in the treatment of burns including a recent paper from the Saint Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, NJ. We are making consistent progress in broadly introducing our products to surgeons around the world and having those products take their rightful place in the surgical suites in which they operate.”

Mr. McManus concluded, “The momentum that we developed during fiscal 2014 continued into the first half of fiscal 2015, and we look to extend that into the second half. We maintain a strong cash position of approximately $8.3 million, we carry no long-term debt, and we continue to fund operations from internally generated cash flow. We look forward to continuing to drive solid operational and financial results throughout the rest of fiscal 2015.”
