OraSure Announces 2011 First Quarter Financial Results
BETHLEHEM, PA – May 4, 2011 – (Globe Newswire) – OraSure Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSUR), a market leader in oral fluid diagnostics, today announced total revenues of $17.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $17.9 million recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Product revenues for the quarter increased 3% as higher sales of the Company’s infectious disease and substance abuse testing products were partially offset by lower sales of its cryosurgical systems and insurance risk assessment products. The higher product revenues were offset by a reduction in licensing and product development revenues caused by the absence of a $1.0 million milestone payment received in the first quarter of 2010 under the terms of the Company’s collaboration with Merck related to the development and promotion of the OraQuick® rapid HCV test.
The Company reported a net loss of $2.6 million, or $0.06 per share, for the first quarter of 2011, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million, or $0.05 per share, for the first quarter of 2010.
Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $2.0 million, an improvement of $3.0 million when compared to the $5.0 million used during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
“Our financial results for the first quarter came in better than expected,” said Douglas A. Michels, President and CEO of OraSure Technologies, Inc. “We exceeded our guidance for both revenues and the bottom line. Despite continued economic and funding challenges, we made solid progress on our goals for the quarter, including the ongoing clinical development of our OraQuick® HIV OTC test, which is a testament to the quality of our team.”
Gross margin in the first quarter of 2011 was 65%, compared to 64% in the first quarter of 2010. Gross margin for the current period benefited from increased manufacturing efficiencies and a more favorable product mix.
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2011 increased to $13.8 million, from $13.6 million in the comparable period of 2010, primarily as a result of higher research and development expenses due to clinical trial spending related to the Company’s OraQuick® HIV over-the-counter product study. This increase was partially offset by lower sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $72.4 million and working capital was $76.0 million at March 31, 2011, compared to $75.7 million and $77.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2010.
Second Quarter 2011 Outlook
The Company expects total revenues for the second quarter of 2011 to range from approximately $17.75 to $18.25 million. The Company is currently projecting a loss per share for the second quarter of 2011 of approximately $0.07 to $0.08.
