ROCKWELL MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Date: November 12, 2004 By: /s/ Thomas E. Klema ---------------------------- Thomas E. Klema Its: Chief Financial Officer EX-99.1 2 e19688ex99_1.txt PRESS RELEASE Exhibit 99.1 Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. Reports Record Third Quarter Sales; Year-to-Date Earnings Improvement of $295,000 WIXOM, Mich., Nov. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: RMTI), a leading, innovative hemodialysis products company in the healthcare sector, reported its third quarter 2004 results today which included the following third quarter highlights: * Record quarterly revenues of $4,473,872 were up 13.6% over the third quarter of 2003. * Core dialysis concentrate product line revenues were up 30% over the third quarter of 2003. * Dri-Sate(R) Dry Acid Concentrate unit volume increased 41% over the third quarter of 2003. * Net income was $65,277 or $.01 per share. Nine month results for 2004 improved substantially over the first nine months of 2003 with the following highlights: * Sales increased 21.6% over the first nine months of 2003. * Dialysis concentrate revenue was up 30%, driven by broad growth across all concentrate product lines. * Continued market growth of Dri-Sate(R) Dry Acid Concentrate with unit volumes up 43% over last year. * Operating income of $338,000, or 2.6% of sales, improved 2.2 percentage points over last year. * Net income improved by $295,000 as compared to a loss of ($95,000) in the first three quarters of 2003. * Earnings per share was $.02, an improvement of $.03 per share compared to the first nine months last year. Mr. Robert L. Chioini, Chairman, CEO, and President of Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. stated, "Third quarter sales growth of 30% in our concentrates were strong and in line with our expectations. Although we lost a piece of lower margin ancillary business for the quarter, growth in our core product line made up for more than the difference. Our strategic focus continues to be on getting our proprietary iron therapy product to the market while continuing to increase market share in our core concentrate business." Rockwell has been developing a proprietary drug product containing Ferric Pyrophosphate (FePPi) to be delivered by its dialysis concentrates. It believes FePPi, delivered via Dialysate, is a superior iron compound and delivery method for the treatment of anemia in dialysis patients as compared to the current intravenous (IV) Iron drugs used today. The Company is seeking FDA approval of the product, which it intends to market. The Company believes that the current market for IV iron is $300 million in the United States and more than $500 million globally. As compared to IV iron administration, the Company believes that administering the drug through its dialysate is a safer and more effective method for maintaining iron balance in dialysis patients, while at the same time eliminating the associated nursing and pharmaceutical IV iron administration costs. Rockwell holds the exclusive rights to the patents which cover the pharmaceutical composition, methods of use and delivery of iron to be administered via dialysate to both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients. Rockwell will be hosting a conference call to review its third quarter results on November 11, 2004 at 11:00 a.m. EST. Investors are encouraged to call in 5-10 minutes in advance of the call at 888-896-0862 or may listen on the web at: http://orion.calleci.com/servlet/estreamgetevent?id=4420&folder=default using Windows Media Player.

Rockwell Medical Technologies, Inc. is an innovative leader in manufacturing, marketing and delivering high-quality dialysis solutions, powders and ancillary products that improve the quality of care for dialysis patients. Dialysis is a process that duplicates kidney function for those patients whose kidneys have failed to work properly and suffer from chronic kidney failure, a condition also known as end stage renal disease (ESRD). There are an estimated 350,000 dialysis patients in the United States and the incidence of ESRD has increased 6-8% on average each year over the last decade. Rockwell's products are used to cleanse the ESRD patient's blood and replace nutrients in the bloodstream. Rockwell offers the proprietary Dri- Sate(R) Dry Acid Mixing System, RenalPure(TM) Liquid Acid, RenalPure(TM) Powder Bicarbonate, SteriLyte(R) Liquid Bicarbonate, Blood Tubing Sets, Fistula Needles and a wide range of ancillary dialysis items.
