Implant Sciences Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2013 Financial Results

WILMINGTON, MA--(Marketwired - May 10, 2013) - Implant Sciences Corporation (OTCQB: IMSC), a high technology supplier of systems and sensors for the homeland security market and related industries, today announced financial results for the fiscal quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2013.

Revenues for the third quarter ended March 31, 2013 increased 84%, to $1.3 million, from $0.7 million for the comparable prior year period. Our net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $5.3 million as compared with a net loss of $3.9 million for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $1.4 million. The increase in the net loss is primarily due to $1.5 million of stock-based compensation recorded on option grants to our directors and officers in September 2012, as well as to increased operating expenses and increased interest expense.

Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 increased 237%, to $9.6 million, from $2.9 million for the comparable prior year period. Our net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $21.8 million as compared with a net loss of $10.3 million for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $11.5 million. The increase in the net loss is primarily due to $12.3 million of stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants, as well as to increased operating expenses and increased interest expense.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, stock-based compensation, warrants issued to non-employees and common stock issued to consultants ("Adjusted EBITDA"), which is reconciled to net income in this press release, calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, were a loss of $2,310,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2013, compared to a loss of $2,081,000 in the comparable prior year period and a loss of $5,020,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2013, compared to a loss of $5,507,000 in the comparable prior year period.

Glenn D. Bolduc, President and CEO of Implant Sciences, commented, "During our recently concluded third quarter, Implant Sciences achieved a number of important strategic goals that we believe position the Company for consistent and sustainable growth. We have taken important steps to broaden the markets we serve, increase our revenue opportunities, and improve our financial stability." The following are some of our recent developments:
Our QS-B220 Benchtop Explosives and Narcotics Trace Detector which successfully met the requirements for acceptance onto the Transportation Security Administration ("TSA") Air Cargo Screening Technology List in January, has been accepted into the final independent validation testing by the Transportation Security Laboratory for TSA qualification for checkpoint screening. We extended the maturity of our credit agreements with DMRJ Group LLC through March 31, 2014, removed the Company's obligation to repurchase any shares of Series H Preferred Stock into which some of our debt is convertible and negotiated the conversion of $12 million of the line of credit to a convertible term note, increasing availability under the $23 million line of credit. We continued to increase our geographic distribution with sales to Japan, Africa, Asia, the Middle East and to a U.S. Government agency. Increased diversification of markets served in the recently ended quarter now include nuclear plants, a national postal service, corporate offices, critical infrastructure and VIP protection. We received follow-on orders from existing customers for our QS-H150 handheld detector, demonstrating the reliability, operational and cost advantages of this device and our technology, and we received orders for our QS-B220 for use in screening parcels for drugs. We executed a settlement agreement and mutual release with Fulong Electronics Integrated Technique Ltd., which resulted in a one-time $295,000 benefit recognized in the third quarter. We enhanced our IP portfolio with the receipt of our 16th patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, titled, "Trace Particle Collection System." We continued to attract industry experienced talent and enhanced our technical team with the recruitment of Dr. Quan Shi as Senior Analytical Chemist. Dr. Shi brings in-depth experience in explosives, drugs and other trace chemical detection, gas chromatography, differential ion mobility spectrometry and mass spectrometry. He was most recently Lead R&D Scientist at ThermoFisher Scientific, held senior technical roles at Sionex Corporation and Aerodyne Research and has a proven record of commercializing technology.
Mr. Bolduc concluded, "Our continued progress with the TSA, in achieving acceptance onto the air cargo screening technology list and acceptance into the final independent validation testing for checkpoint screening, are very significant achievements which we believe establish our credibility as the next generation explosives technology in the competitive global trace explosives industry. In addition to increasing our potential business opportunities, these approvals advance our worldwide approval efforts. The influx of industry talent that we have recruited over the past twelve months provides a solid foundation from which to build upon as we work to innovate new products and technology and grow our market share and revenues. We have much work ahead of ourselves, but remain excited about our future prospects."

Details for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 follow below.

Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 vs. March 31, 2012
Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 were $1,262,000 as compared with $686,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $576,000, or 84.0%. The increase in revenue is due primarily to the shipment of an order to an agency of the U.S. government, resulting in a 104% increase in the number of QS-H150 handheld units sold and increased sales of parts and supplies during the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the comparable prior year period.

Gross margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $303,000 or 24.0% of revenues as compared with gross margin of $182,000 or 26.5% of revenues for the comparable prior year period. The decrease in gross margin is primarily the result of increased manufacturing overhead spending due to stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants, and increased manufacturing personnel costs, as compared to the comparable prior year period.

Research and development expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $1,116,000 as compared with $799,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $317,000 or 39.7%. The increase in research and development expense is due primarily to increased payroll and related benefit costs, stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants, partially offset by decreased contracted engineering.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 were $3,191,000 as compared with $2,258,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $933,000, or 41.3%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is due primarily to a $1,244,000 increase in stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, increased payroll, related benefit costs and travel expense resulting from the addition of sales personnel, legal costs incurred to increase our authorized shares, partially offset by lower consulting fees due to the issuance of our common stock to certain consultants in the comparable prior year period and the $295,000 benefit recognized as a result of the litigation settlement with Fulong.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2013, other expense, net was $1,335,000 as compared with other expense, net of $1,015,000, for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $320,000. The increase was primarily due to increased interest expense on higher borrowings under our credit facility with DMRJ. Interest expense increased $320,000 to $1,336,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2013 from $1,016,000 in the comparable prior year period.

Our net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $5,339,000 as compared with a net loss of $3,890,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $1,449,000, or 37.2%. The increase in the net loss is primarily due to stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants, increased operating expenses and increased interest expense.


Nine Months Ended March 31, 2013 vs. March 31, 2012
Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 were $9,615,000 as compared with $2,854,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $6,761,000, or 236.9%. The increase in revenue is due primarily to the shipment of the India Ministry of Defence order, resulting in a 244% increase in the number of QS-H150 handheld units sold and increased sales of parts and supplies during the nine months ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the comparable prior year period and, to a lesser extent, incremental sales of our QS-B220 benchtop units, which we began shipping commercially in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, partially offset by an 6.4% decrease in average unit sell prices on sales our QS-H150 handheld units.

Gross margin for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $2,732,000 or 28.4% of revenues as compared with gross margin of $946,000 or 33.1% of revenues for the comparable prior year period. The decrease in gross margin is primarily the result of increased manufacturing overhead spending due to stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants, increased manufacturing personnel costs, costs incurred to support the India Ministry of Defense order and by the 6.4% decrease in the average unit sell prices on sales of our QS-H150 handheld units in the nine months ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the comparable prior year period.

Research and development expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $3,521,000 as compared with $2,365,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $1,156,000 or 48.9%. The increase in research and development expense is due primarily to stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants and increased payroll and related benefit costs, partially offset by decreased contracted engineering.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 were $17,115,000 as compared with $6,053,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $11,062,000, or 182.8%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is due primarily to a $10,847,000 increase in stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, increased payroll, related benefit costs and travel expense resulting from the addition of sales personnel, the imposition of liquidated damages of $298,000 under our contact with the India Ministry of Defence, due to delayed shipment, increased legal fees and costs incurred to increase our authorized shares, and increased bank fees, partially offset by lower consulting fees due to the issuance of our common stock to certain consultants in the comparable prior year period and the $295,000 benefit recognized as a result of the litigation settlement with Fulong.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2013, other expense, net was $3,906,000 as compared with other income, net of $2,780,000, for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $1,126,000. The increase was primarily due to increased interest expense on higher borrowings under our credit facility with DMRJ. Interest expense increased $1,125,000 to $3,908,000 in the nine months ended March 31, 2013 from $2,783,000 in the comparable prior year period.

Our net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 was $21,810,000 as compared with a net loss of $10,252,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $11,558,000, or 112.7%. The increase in the net loss is primarily due to stock-based compensation recorded on the September 2012 officer and director option grants, increased operating expenses and increased interest expense.
