Digirad Corporation (NASDAQ: DRAD) today reported revenues of $15.1
million and an ending cash balance of $30.8 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2010.
Digirad CEO Todd Clyde stated, "As expected in this quarter, the
reduction in reimbursements has affected our DIS business and we
are working our adjustment plans accordingly. We also met our
expected sales targets in our camera business, which helped
maintain a strong cash position. We expect increased stabilization
in the middle of the year, leading to a stronger second half of
2010 and a return to positive cash flow and profitability."
Clyde continued, "The new health care environment is driving
change with our physician and health care institution customers. We
believe these changes will allow us the opportunity to introduce
new services and technologies. For example, we expect our new ergo™
general-purpose portable imaging system to open new possibilities
of how and where diagnosis can be performed in the hospital,
thereby enhancing clinical flexibility, improving diagnostic
quality and providing a strong return on investment."
First Quarter 2010 Summary:
-- Total revenue for the 2010 first quarter was $15.1 million, compared to
$17.7 million in 2009 period, mainly due to the impact of lower
reimbursement levels for imaging services. Digirad Imaging Solutions
(DIS) revenue was $10.7 million compared to $13.9 million for Q1 2009,
and product revenues were $4.4 million compared to $3.9 for the first
quarter 2009.
-- Gross profit was $3.4 million, or 22% of revenue, compared to $5.1
million, or 29%, for the 2009 first quarter.
-- Net loss was $1.2 million, or ($0.06) per share, compared to net profit
of $44,000, or $0.00 per share, for the 2009 first quarter.
-- Cash and cash equivalents and available-for-sale securities totaled
$30.8 million, or $1.60 per share at March 31, 2010, net of
approximately $1.0 million invested in the Company's stock as part of
its stock buyback program. Cash and cash equivalents and
available-for-sale securities were $31.8 million at December 31, 2009.
-- DIS asset utilization was 62% on 135 systems (nuclear and ultrasound),
compared to 63% on 159 systems (nuclear and ultrasound) in the first
quarter of 2009.
Richard Slansky, CFO, added, "Our balance sheet remains strong
as evidenced by our cash balance of $30.8 million and no long term
debt. We do plan to continue our stock buyback program this year,
as authorized by our Board of Directors."
Clyde reiterated that the two main goals for 2010 continue to
be:
-- Generate positive cash flow in excess of $2 million; and,
-- Achieve positive earnings.
Digirad expects to accomplish these two fundamental goals
by:
-- Retaining its DIS customers, despite reimbursement reductions, and
offering them new, expanded services;
-- Managing its operating expenses to adjust to the changing healthcare
environment;
-- Continuing to focus on accounts receivable collections, inventory
reduction and balance sheet management; and,
-- Introducing, in the middle of 2010, the first large-field-of-view,
solid-state portable camera to the hospital marketplace.
"We made a commitment in 2009 to continue to innovate; our ergo
imaging system is further evidence of our meeting that commitment
and our long-term vision that our technology can add even more
value to the provider tomorrow than has been achieved in the past,"
Clyde added.
