DRAD Digirad Corporation

Management of Digirad Corporation (NASDAQ:DRAD), a leading provider of cardiovascular imaging services and solid-state nuclear medicine imaging products to physician offices, hospitals and imaging centers, updated previous financial guidance for 2006 and provided initial guidance for 2007 in a presentation today at the 25th Annual JPMorgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco. For 2006, Chief Executive Officer Mark Casner said that the Company currently anticipates consolidated revenues at the high end of the previously announced range of $70.7 million to $71.5 million, consisting of DIS revenue between $49.1 million and $49.5 million and product revenue between $21.6 million and $22.0 million; and a consolidated loss at the low end ($7.3 million) of the previously announced range of $7.3 million to $7.8 million, including estimated stock-based compensation expense of $1.7 million. Casner stated that revenue guidance for the full year of 2006 includes $2 million in stress agent revenues Digirad received through June of 2006, when it phased out stress agent deliveries, and noted that an evaluation of Digirad's 2007 revenue guidance in comparison to Digirad's 2006 results should take the lack of stress agent revenue going forward into account. For 2007, Casner said that the Company currently anticipates consolidated revenues in the range of $73 million to $76 million, consisting of DIS revenue between $50 million and $52 million and product revenue between $23 million and $24 million; and a consolidated loss between $1.3 million and $3.3 million, including estimated stock-based compensation expense of $1.3 million.
