“The challenges of lower revenue for the second quarter and increased spending on future opportunities influenced our operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, over the same period last year,” said Ralph Makar, Bioject’s President and CEO. Mr. Makar added, “During the second quarter of 2010, we significantly increased investment on pursuing new business opportunities. Even with these efforts, our cash position at the end of the second quarter of 2010 was comparable to our cash position at the end of the first quarter of 2010. We believe that the investments made and the active plan we have been working on will yield improved results during the latter half of the year. As we strategically focus on future opportunities, we are also pursuing potential sources of additional capital either through the closure of new contracts or from other sources,” commented Mr. Makar.
