Operational Highlights
-- ProPhotonix expanded its distributed product portfolio. The portfolio now includes high powered laser devices from Oclaro, augmenting a multi-year relationship between our companies. In addition, the Company and Osram Opto Semiconductors embraced a mutual agreement for ProPhotonix to distribute Osram's ground breaking green (515nm and 520nm) and blue (450nm) Direct Diode Lasers.
-- 1.15 Book-to-Bill ratio from existing customers and significant new customer activity, of which 10 new customers amounted to $1.8 million of first half bookings.
Tim Losik, President & CEO, Commented:
"During the first half 2013, the Company has experienced an improvement in business activity with order bookings through the first six months of 2013 totaling $8.4 million and the June 30, 2013 backlog of unshipped orders, $6.2 million, up 16% since December 31, 2012. The Company ended the first six months of 2013 with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.15. New customer activity is a cornerstone focus for growth and I am pleased that we are embracing new customers every day. Ten new customers accounted for $1.8 million of bookings in the first half, in both businesses, across several market sectors: industrial, medical/dental, semiconductor, and robotics. The investment in our sales team is reaping rewards. In addition, we are seeing broad interest in the green and blue Direct Diode Lasers by Osram and believe this will allow growth within the existing customer base and new customer activity.
"As announced on June 21, 2013 the Company secured $3.0 million of new loan financing with net availability of $2.5 million through an existing lender to the Company alongside a new lender. We are confident this capital puts ProPhotonix on solid footing to continue the execution of its strategy. As we execute our strategy and grow, we will seek additional sources of capital in order to expand our product and market positioning and to reduce our cost structure.
"Excluding restructuring and one-time charges of $582K, we produced significant improvements in the operating performance versus the first half 2012, including: Operating Income improved 69%, EBITDA improved 80%, and Net Income improved 47%. The improvement in operating performance is the result of increased revenue, product mix, cost reductions, and overhead absorption. The actions taken to reduce costs in the first half will significantly reduce our break-even point on a go forward basis. Following the financing on June 21, 2013, and having assessed future trading forecasts, the Company believes that it has sufficient financing to allow it to trade for the foreseeable future.
"The outlook for ProPhotonix is very encouraging and despite global economic head winds, to which we are not immune, order activity has improved in the first half 2013, while our opportunity pipeline continues to grow."

Half Year 2013 Financial Results
Revenue for the half year ended June 30 2013 was $7.4 million, an increase of 9% compared with $6.8 million in the same period of 2012. Gross profit was $3.0 million, an increase of 41% compared to $2.1 million in the first half of 2012. Gross profit margin increased to 40.4% from 31.1% in the same period 2012 due to a shift in product mix, material cost reductions and higher volumes. Foreign currency exchange impact on gross profit and operating income was negligible.
Operating expenses, excluding intangible amortization charges, totaled $4.0 million versus $3.7 million in 2012 for the comparable period. Included in the 2013 operating expenses are approximately $0.6 million related to restructuring and nonrecurring charges. Sales and marketing and research and development (R&D) expenses decreased 5% in 2013 from the first half 2012, while general and administrative expenses increased 21% over the same period. Without the restructuring and nonrecurring charges, general and administrative expenses would have declined by 11% from the same period in 2012. The operating loss was $1.1 million, as compared to a $1.7 million loss in the same period 2012. Excluding the restructuring and nonrecurring charges, the operating loss would have been $0.5 million, an improvement of 69% from the first half 2012. EBITDA, excluding the $0.6 million restructuring and nonrecurring charges, was a loss of $0.3 million versus an EBITDA loss in 2012 of $1.4 million, an improvement of 80% from the first half 2012. The net loss was $1.5 million compared to the first half 2012 net loss of $1.8 million.
Strategy and Markets
ProPhotonix consists of two business units: an LED systems manufacturing business based in Ireland (Cork), and a laser modules production and laser diode distribution division located in the United Kingdom (Hatfield Broad Oak). Corporate, marketing and the North American sales activities are based in Salem, New Hampshire, United States of America.
The Company is well positioned to make significant progress on in its strategy to combine its expertise in two key areas of optics: LEDs and lasers. The Company intends to capitalize on increasing opportunities in this area by designing and manufacturing high value, high margin components for global manufacturers of equipment.
The Company has made significant investments in R&D, including expanding its R&D team, which now includes a full complement of optical, mechanical and electrical engineers and represents over 20% of the Company's total workforce of 96 employees. They are focused on continuing to develop proprietary products to meet clearly defined demand from our customers and the markets which we serve. In this regard, progress during the first half included a range of new laser module and LED OEM opportunities including development for new customer applications. Currently, the majority of the Company's R&D and product development activities are specifically tied to future customer requirements.

Notes to unaudited Interim Results
Basis of Presentation
The Company financial reports are issued under the recognition and measurement principles of United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial reports reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the (i) results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012; (ii) the financial position at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012; and (iii) the cash flows for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any other interim period.
Cautionary Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical fact, including without limitation, those with respect to ProPhotonix's goals, plans and strategies set forth herein are forward-looking statements. The following important factors and uncertainties, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements: uncertainty that cash balances may not be sufficient to allow ProPhotonix to meet all of its business goals; uncertainty that ProPhotonix's new products will gain market acceptance; the risk that delays and unanticipated expenses in developing new products could delay the commercial release of those products and affect revenue estimates; the risk that one of our competitors could develop and bring to market a technology that is superior to those products that we are currently developing; and ProPhotonix's ability to capitalize on its significant research and development efforts by successfully marketing those products that the Company develops. Forward-looking statements represent management's current expectations and are inherently uncertain. All Company, brand, and product names are trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective holders. ProPhotonix undertakes no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company provides non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA, to complement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized definition and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other reporting companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial and operating performance and its prospects for the future. Specifically, the Company believes the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors by identifying certain expenses, gains and losses that, when excluded from the GAAP results, may provide additional understanding of the Company's core operating results or business performance, which management uses to evaluate financial performance for purposes of planning for future periods. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to supersede or replace the Company's GAAP results.
The Company uses EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and impairment charges) as a non-GAAP financial measure in this press release. A reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:
