RITA REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2006 RESULTS
2-2-2

Revenue was $12.9 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006, compared to revenue of $11.2 million in the third quarter of 2005, a 15% year over year increase. This compares sequentially to revenue of $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2006. The year over year increase was led by significant growth of the Habib 4X™ resection device and the commencement of volume sales of the new LC Bead™ products in the third quarter, together with the initiation of direct sales in several key European markets in late 2005, rather than through distributors in those markets.

The GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2006 was $928,000, or a GAAP net loss per share of $0.02, a significant improvement from the GAAP net loss in the second quarter of 2006 of $1.6 million or a GAAP net loss per share of $0.04. The GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2005 was $705,000 or a GAAP net loss per share of $0.02.

The third quarter and second quarter 2006 GAAP net losses included SFAS 123R stock compensation expenses of $672,000 and $782,000, respectively, which were due to the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006. However, the comparable 2005 losses excluded any impact from the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R, which was only effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2006.

The pro-forma net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $111,000, or a pro-forma net income per fully diluted share of $0.00, compared with a pro-forma net loss in the third quarter of 2005 of $115,000 or a pro-forma net loss per share of $0.00. The pro-forma net income and loss excludes FASB 123R stock compensation expense and amortization expense of acquisition intangibles. A reconciliation of the differences between the GAAP net losses and the pro-forma net losses is included in an accompanying table.

For the first nine months of 2006 revenue was $38.2 million compared with revenue of $34.3 million for the first nine months of 2005, for 11.2% year over year growth. The GAAP net loss for the first nine months of 2006 was $4.5 million, or a GAAP net loss per share of $0.10, which included SFAS 123R stock compensation expense of $2.2 million. The GAAP net loss in the first nine months of 2005 was $3.8 million or a GAAP net loss per share of $0.09. However, the GAAP net loss for the first nine months of 2005 excluded any impact from the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R, which was only effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2006.

Cash and cash equivalents were $6.4 million at September 30, 2006, compared with $5.5 million at December 31, 2005, and $3.2 million at September 30, 2005. The increases were primarily due to stock option exercises by former employees in the first quarter of 2006 and fourth quarter of 2005 and positive cash flow from operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006. Cash flow from operations was positive $875,000 during the first nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to a negative $3.4 million during the first nine months ended September 30, 2005.

RITA REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2006 RESULTS
3-3-3

“I am pleased with our results for the quarter and for the first nine months of the year, and our outlook for the remainder of 2006 is robust. We improved our cash position, which doubled compared to one year ago, and made the investments in R&D and products that we committed to at the start of the year. We believe that this stronger financial position enables us to continue to be aggressive in our new product development endeavors. The increase we have seen in our localized therapy product sales is positive affirmation of our strategy to offer our customers a full continuum of cancer care solutions for their patients,” said Mr. Joseph DeVivo, President and CEO of RITA.

“We have analyzed the year over year decline in our specialty access catheter (SAC) product line and believe we can reverse the trend with a combination of strategies, including re-focusing our sellers who were engaged in a successful effort to launch the LC Bead product, and through dedicated clinical marketing specialist activities. We believe that we can reinvigorate this important part of the business with our existing SAC product portfolio and the planned introduction of new SAC products next year.

“We look to continue our success at executing our business plan in the fourth quarter of the year with the anticipated completion of several exciting product and clinical milestones. As we have previously mentioned, we will introduce a laparoscopic version of our popular Habib 4x™ resection device late in the fourth quarter, ahead of our earlier plan. Early laboratory experiences with a number of thought leaders have been very positive and we believe that the product will have wide appeal to surgeons.

“In the second quarter of 2006 we announced the planned introduction of the Uniblate™ radiofrequency electrode product. Uniblate will allow us to compete more aggressively in specific segments of the ablation market and we believe will increase our market share. In the fourth quarter we intend to complete product development and file the necessary regulatory submissions required for product launch. Depending on the timing of the regulatory submission responses we will begin initial clinical utilization of Uniblate in the fourth quarter but do not anticipate volume sales and shipments of the product until the first quarter of 2007

“We initiated clinical feasibility trials of the Starburst Assure™ RFA electrode in October 2006. The Assure device is designed exclusively for radiofrequency-assisted lumpectomy for breast cancer. The first clinical cases have been performed and the Assure electrode was used to ablate the wall of the lumpectomy cavity of patients undergoing breast conserving surgery. The lumpectomy cavity RFA is performed during the original surgery at the time of the excision of the primary tumor. The feasibility study is designed to assess the potential of lumpectomy cavity RFA using the Assure device to spare women the trauma associated with additional surgery when close or inadequate margins are identified through pathology examination following a lumpectomy procedure.”

Mr. DeVivo further commented, "The Assure device is a novel RFA electrode designed specifically for the breast by our research and development team and the feasibility trial is the first step in our efforts to commercialize this new device. The start of the trial is a very important milestone for RITA and we are very grateful to Drs. Piga and Cabula and the entire team who performed these first-ever clinical cases. Our next milestone is to complete enrollment in this study which we believe we can do on schedule.

“Looking ahead to 2007, we expect to continue our strong growth, leveraging our business model to further improve operating results year over year,” concluded Mr. DeVivo.

About RITA Medical Systems, Inc.
RITA Medical Systems develops, manufactures and markets innovative products that provide local oncology therapy options for cancer patients including radiofrequency ablation (RFA) systems and embolization products for treating cancerous tumors as well as percutaneous vascular and spinal access systems for systemic treatments. The Company's oncology product lines include implantable ports, some of which feature its proprietary Vortex® technology; tunneled central venous catheters; and safety infusion sets and peripherally inserted central catheters used primarily in cancer treatment protocols. The Company’s complete line of radiofrequency products also includes the HABIB 4X resection device and will include the new Laparoscopic Habib 4X resection device, both of which are designed to coagulate highly vascularized tissue to facilitate a fast dissection in order to minimize blood loss and blood transfusion during surgery. The proprietary RITA RFA system uses radiofrequency energy to heat tissue to a high enough temperature to ablate it or cause cell death. In March 2000, RITA became the first RFA company to receive specific FDA clearance for unresectable liver lesions in addition to its previous general FDA clearance for the ablation of soft tissue. In October 2002, RITA again became the first company to receive specific FDA clearance, this time for the palliation of pain associated with metastatic lesions involving bone. The Company also distributes LC Bead embolic microspheres in the United States. The LC Bead microspheres are injected into selected vessels to block the blood flow feeding a tumor, causing it to shrink over time, and are often used in combination with RFA. The RITA Medical Systems website is at www.ritamedical.com.

The statements in this news release related to the use of the Company's technology and the Company’s future financial and operating performance, including without limitation the Company’s outlook for its financial results for the quarter and the year ending December 31, 2006; the Company’s ability to timely develop, obtain regulatory approval, and introduce new radiofrequency and vascular access products, including the Laparoscopic Habib 4X, Uniblate, and Assure products; physician adoption of the Company’s products for treatment of types of cancer other than liver and bone cancers, including breast cancer; the Company’s ability to achieve its revenue goals, including its ability to improve revenue growth by selling directly in certain European markets; the Company’s ability to market and sell the LC Bead product; the Company’s ability to achieve profitability; and the Company's ability to achieve future improvements in operating performance, are forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: the Company’s 2004 material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting which were reported in its Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2004; the timing of product introductions or modifications, including delays caused by technical or regulatory issues; the Company’s limited experience selling directly in certain European markets; the Company’s limited experience in manufacturing its products in substantial quantities and its reliance on one or two suppliers for several of its products, including Habib 4X; the Company’s lack of experience distributing the LC Bead product and its ability to meet its minimum LC Bead purchase requirements; the Company’s historical and future operating results and its lack of profitability; market acceptance of the Company’s products for existing or new indications; the Company’s dependence on international sales; competitive pressures; the ability of users of the Company’s products to receive reimbursement from third-party payors, governmental programs or private insurance plans; product liability or other patient-related claims, defects, recalls or failures; and general economic and political conditions. Information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties is included in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
