BASi Reports Fiscal 2012 Second Quarter Results

 

WEST LAFAYETTE, Indiana — May 11, 2012 — Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: BASI) (BASi) today announced financial results for the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2012.

 

"BASi's second quarter results are not indicative of the performance we expect from the company. We are taking a variety of actions on the revenue and cost sides of our business that are designed to position the company for future success, and we are confident that our operating results will improve as a result," said President and CEO Tony Chilton.

 

"We are committed to our strategy to build on BASi's more than three decades of contract research experience to expand our business with the growing population of small biotech and pharmaceutical companies that have become a major force in new drug discovery, while continuing to develop our historically close relationships with major pharmaceutical clients. Pharmacological services and instrument sales were up in April and early May compared to their run rates at the end of the second quarter, and our marketing initiatives in support of our clients' drug discovery efforts, including the recently launched Discovery Center located in our headquarters facility in West Lafayette, appear to be gaining traction. Demand for toxicology services appears to have bottomed, as we are seeing an increase in requests for quotes for these services, an encouraging and long overdue sign of nascent recovery from the recession that has affected the CRO industry so severely these past few years," Chilton said.

 

Jacqueline Lemke, who was named Vice President of Finance & CFO in April, said, "We are moving forward as rapidly as possible on the restructuring of our bioanalytical laboratory operations announced in March. The decommissioning of our laboratory in McMinnville, Oregon will be completed this month, and the operations consolidated into our West Lafayette facility. We expect to book a $450,000 charge associated with these actions in the current quarter. We also are evaluating several options to improve the financial performance of our laboratory in Warwickshire, UK, and expect to announce a final decision and an estimate of associated costs, if any, in the next few weeks. We continue to expect this laboratory restructuring program to reduce operating costs by more than $2 million annually.

 

"Separately, over the next three or four months we are planning to take a variety of steps to reduce operating costs at our West Lafayette and Evansville facilities. We believe we will realize savings of approximately $2.5 million annually from this effort, on top of the savings we anticipate from the laboratory restructuring.

 

 

 
 

 

"All told, within the next few months we expect to reduce operating costs by at least $4.5 million annually, bringing costs into proper alignment with the current pace of our business while enhancing productivity and customer service through improved capacity utilization and more efficient workflow. Together with the improved outlook for revenue Tony mentioned, we expect these cost reductions to position BASi to deliver the growth and consistent profitability we are confident the company is capable of delivering."

 

Financial Results

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, revenue decreased 17.3% to $6,966,000 compared to $8,423,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 was $1,884,000, or $0.27 per share, which included pre-tax restructuring charges of $64,000.
