Michael A. McManus Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Misonix, commented, “The results of the quarter clearly indicate that we are gaining traction in the execution of our strategic business plan. We are very pleased with the solid revenue growth in both our BoneScalpel and SonaStar products. We believe that the growing acceptance of these products in the operating room is directly related to the efficiency and the flexibility that these tools provide in the course of a surgical procedure. We are making steady progress in gaining adoption of our surgical devices on a global basis.”
“In that regard, we are particularly pleased,” continued Mr. McManus, “with the strong sales growth achieved in international markets this fiscal year. European sales are up 80% to $1.9 million; we have more than quadrupled sales in Asia to $1.1 million; sales in the Middle East are up 90% to $495,000; Canada/Mexico sales are up 82% to $346,000; South American sales are up 21% to $455,000; and Australian sales increased 69% to $165,000. Our internal sale force, as well as our international distributors, are doing a great job in expanding our markets. In addition, the fundamentals of the Company are strong. We have a solid balance sheet with upwards of $6 million in cash and equivalents and zero long term debt. While the refocused Misonix is in the early stages of operating as a pure play surgical devices provider, we are pleased with the measurable progress achieved toward becoming a profitable company on a consistent basis.”
