Third Quarter 2010 Highlights

  • Closed on the rights offering during the quarter and raised gross proceeds of $1.5 million and net of share issue costs of $1.3 million;
  • Reduced receivables by $0.8 million compared to December 31, 2009 on the collection of approximately $4.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2010; Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) for the quarter reduced to 67 days from 122 days for the same quarter last year;
  • Reduced inventory by $1.2 million compared to December 31, 2009;
  • Payables and accruals decreased by $0.3 million compared to December 31 2009;
  • Sales and marketing, general and administrative, production and manufacturing and research and development expenses were reduced by 18.2 percent to $1.2 million from $1.5 million during the quarter compared to the same quarter last year and were reduced by 21.9 percent to $4.0 million from $5.2 million on a year to date basis compared to the same period last year;
  • Reduced total expenses by 27.1 percent to $1.4 million from $1.9 million during the quarter compared to the same quarter last year and reduced by 30.4 percent to $4.7 million from $6.7 million on a year to date basis compared to the same period last year;
  • Purchase orders received during the third quarter and opening backlog totaled $1.9 million ($1.0 million shipped and recognized in third quarter, $0.9 million booked to closing backlog);
  • Gross revenues were lower by 45.3 percent compared to the same quarter last year and lower by 58.7 percent on a year to date basis; which was largely due to the decline in revenues from Asia Pacific, and EMEA & SA where the orders have been pushed into upcoming quarters of 2010 and slower purchasing decisions in other regions; and
  • Gross margins were 30.4 percent for the quarter compared to 20.5 percent for the same quarter last year and 32.6 percent compared to 26.9 percent on a year to date basis.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2010 was $1,096,880 or $0.01 of basic and diluted loss per share compared to a net loss of $1,425,850 or $0.02 of basic and diluted loss per share for the same quarter last year.  Year-to-date net loss was $3,545,120 or $0.04 of basic and diluted loss per share compared to a net loss of $4,481,648 or $0.05 basic and diluted loss per share for the same period last year.

Commenting on third quarter 2010 results, M. Thomas Boon, IDC President and Chief Executive Officer stated, "Our third quarter financial results were impacted by supply chain constraints which delayed fulfillment of existing orders for detector shipments to the Asia Pacific region; as well as digital radiography system shipments to the United States and the Latin America region.  The outlook for each of these regions for the remainder of 2010 and into 2011 is favorable for IDC's digital imaging technology.  Initial orders for the China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation agreement announced in June will be pushed into late 2010 or early 2011 as resources for this project are being devoted to recovery and rebuilding from recent earthquakes in the Yushu/ZhouQu region of Northwestern China. "

Boon continues, "The proceeds from the shareholder rights offering that closed in September has improved the Company's current cash position.  Ongoing reductions in receivables, payables, inventory and total expenses is clear evidence that each individual in the Company is cognizant of their role in sustaining the business and positioning the Company for the expected recovery of the global digital radiography market segment.  Near term the Company continues to focus on revenue growth the will occur primarily in the emerging markets where our brand and channels are strong.  In addition, the Company is expanding the product portfolio to include DR flat panel technology in selected geographic markets which is expected to add to revenue growth in the near term.  We are optimistic about the potential for considerable improvement in the Company's financial performance by early 2011."

A conference call to review the results will take place on Friday November 12, 2010 at 10:00 a.m. EST (8:00 a.m. MST).  To participate in the call please dial 647-427-7450 or 888-231-8191 approximately five minutes prior to the conference call.
