Vision-Sciences Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2015 Results

Orangeburg, NY – August 4, 2014 – Vision-Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: VSCI), a leading provider of unique flexible endoscopic products utilizing its proprietary sterile disposable EndoSheath^® technology, today announced financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2015, ended June 30, 2014.

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2015 Highlights

“We are pleased with our financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015. We had excellent growth in our pulmonology line during the quarter, including our launch of the new BRS-5100 video bronchoscope. Regarding our cystoscopy line, our decision to bring the sales responsibility in-house is consistent with the focus of our domestic team on the outpatient environment, doctor’s offices or other ambulatory settings, where over 85% of these procedures are routinely performed. We feel confident that we are now better positioned to take advantage of this opportunity. To date, the transition is going well, and we’ve seen a strong conversion of former Stryker customers who are now buying EndoSheaths directly from Vision Sciences. We expect this to continue to increase through our salesforce’s efforts, which should further enable us to move toward accelerated sales growth and profitability for this product line,” commented Howard Zauberman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vision-Sciences, Inc.

Results of Operations

First Quarter Fiscal Year 2015 versus First Quarter Fiscal Year 2014

Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased by 3% to $3.8 million as compared with $3.7 million in the same period a year ago, attributable to higher sales in the critical care/pulmonology market of our endoscopes and EndoSheath technology. Sequentially, net sales in the first quarter fell by 25% from our traditionally strong fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.

Net sales detail (in thousands, except for percentages) for the first quarter of fiscal years 2015 and 2014 were as follows:

Gross profit increased 6% to $1.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Gross profit as a percent of net sales increased to 30.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2015, an increase from 29.6% in the prior-year period. The increases in gross profit and gross profit as a percent of net sales are attributable to a favorable product mix and to our cost-savings measures.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $2.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 18%, compared to the prior-year period. The decline was attributable to the prior-year period including higher stock-based compensation expense and the recognition of a one-time severance charge of $0.2 million related to the resignation of our former chief executive officer. In addition, lower compensation expenses resulted due to vacancies that we intend to fill before the end of this year. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A decreased to 66% in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 from 84% reported in the same period last fiscal year.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were $0.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, an increase of $0.1 million, or 28%, over the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to higher product development costs. As a percentage of net sales, R&D increased to 14% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 from 11% reported during the same period last fiscal year.

The Company’s operating loss of $(1.9) million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 improved by $0.5 million or 21% compared to the prior-year period, primarily due to lower SG&A expenses.

The Company’s net loss of $(2.0) million and net loss per basic and diluted share of $(0.04) both improved from the prior-year period net loss of $(2.4) million and net loss per basic and diluted share of $(0.05).

At June 30, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million and working capital of $6.2 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $1.2 million and working capital of $6.9 million at March 31, 2014. On June 16, 2014, we issued a convertible promissory note to Lewis C. Pell, our Chairman that allowed us to borrow up to $5.0 million. The note was issued in accordance with a letter agreement dated May 29, 2014 from Mr. Pell that provided for up to $5.0 million of capital to be made available to us, subject to certain conditions and an expiration date of July 1, 2015. The letter agreement was then terminated. As of June 30, 2014, we had $1.0 million in principal outstanding under the note.
