(OTCBB: ILGN), a leader in the development of risk assessment products, today reported financial results for the year and quarter ended December 31, 2003. Key Milestones Achieved during 2003: -- We signed a strategic alliance with Alticor and its affiliates to develop and market novel nutritional and skincare products. The major elements of the alliance, in which Alticor acquired a majority interest in Interleukin Genetics, included an equity investment, a multi-year research and development agreement, a licensing agreement with royalties on marketed products, a deferment and conversion feature of outstanding loan repayment and a refinancing of bridge financing obligations. -- We were awarded two new patents. One for a discovery that certain common variations in the Interleukin-1 (IL-1) genes are associated with an increased risk of Osteoporosis and one for a discovery that certain common variations in the IL-1 genes are associated with an increased risk of Cardiovascular Disease. "2003 was a rebuilding year for our company," said Dr. Philip R. Reilly, MD, JD, the company's Chairman and CEO. "We have strengthened our financial position but now must execute our plan to develop and launch risk assessment products into identifiable new markets. We are pleased to have a partner like Alticor working with us in the implementation of our strategy." Financial Results: For the quarter, the Company reported a net loss of $791,000 or $0.03 per basic and diluted share as compared to a net loss of $1,080,000 or $0.05 per basic and diluted share for the same period last year. For the twelve-month period, the Company reported a net loss of $4,172,000 or $0.18 per basic and diluted share compared to a loss of $5,306,000 or $0.24 per basic and diluted share last year. Revenues for the quarter were $761,000 compared to $188,000 in the fourth quarter of 2002. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, the Company reported revenues of $2,056,000 compared to revenues of $290,000 in 2002. The increase in revenue during the three and twelve months periods was due entirely to research funding from our research agreement signed with Alticor. Cost of revenues was $732,000 and $1,625,000 for the fourth quarter and year respectively. This compares with cost of revenue of less than $1,000 for all of 2002. The increase in costs of revenue during the 2003 periods was due entirely to costs associated with performance on the research project with Alticor. Research and development expenditures were $308,000 in the quarter ended December 31, 2003 compared to $578,000 in the comparable period in 2002. Research and development expenses for the year were $2,031,000 compared to $3,082,000 last year. The decreases in R&D expenses reflected a re-allocation of internal resources from internally-funded projects to the research project funded by Alticor and now reported as cost of revenue. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $488,000 and $2,266,000 for the three and twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2003 compared to $569,000 and $2,333,000 respectively during the same periods last year. As of December 31, 2003, the Company reported total assets of $5,458,000, including $4,759,000 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company also reported total liabilities of $3,901,000 and a net worth of $1,558,000. Subsequent to the year-end on March 15, 2004, the Company reported that it had signed a Distribution Agreement with Access Business Group, a subsidiary of Alticor that resulted in a milestone payment of $2,000,000 to Interleukin by Alticor.
