PRO-DEX, INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2015
AND SIX-MONTH RESULTS
February 10, 2015 - PRO-DEX, INC. (NasdaqCM: PDEX) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2015 second quarter ended December
31, 2014. The Company also filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal year 2015 with the Securities
and Exchange Commission today.
Net sales for the three
months ended December 31, 2014 increased $152,000, or 6%, to $2.8 million from $2.6 million for the three months ended December
31, 2013, due primarily to increases in medical device revenues. Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2014 increased
$147,000, or 27%, to $696,000 from $549,000 for the same period in 2013. Contributing to this increase were the increase in sales
volume, described above, and the decrease in our accrual for anticipated losses from the development services portion of certain
contracts, which decreased by $103,000 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
(which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the quarter ended December 31, 2014
increased 18% to $1.1 million from $925,000 million in the prior year's corresponding quarter, reflecting primarily our investment
in our newly launched engineering services division.
Loss from continuing
operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 decreased by $136,000 to $202,000, compared to a loss from continuing operations
of $338,000 in the corresponding quarter in 2013. Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $192,000, or $0.05 per share,
compared to a net loss of $338,000, or $0.10 per share, for the corresponding quarter in 2013.
Ended December 31, 2014
Net sales for the six
months ended December 31, 2014 increased $193,000, or 4%, to $5.4 million from $5.2 million for the six months ended December 31,
2013, due primarily to increases in medical device revenues, which were partially offset by a decrease in dental product revenues.
Gross profit for the
six months ended December 31, 2014 remained stable at $1.5 million, consistent with the same period in 2013.
(which include selling, general and administrative, and research and development expenses) for the six months ended December 31,
2014 increased 14% to $2.1 million from $1.8 million in the prior year's corresponding period, reflecting primarily the effects
of the Company's investment in our newly launched engineering services division as well as research and
incurred to launch in-house battery manufacturing and increases in legal expenses associated with acquisitions and other non-routine
Loss from continuing
operations for the six months ended December 31, 2014 was $383,000, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $320,000 for
the corresponding period in 2013. Net loss for the six months ended December 31, 2014 was $362,000, or $0.09 per share, compared
to a net loss of $126,000, or $0.04 per share, for the corresponding period in 2013.
