OptiCare Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2004 Financial Results WATERBURY, Conn., March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- OptiCare Health Systems, Inc. (AMEX:OPT) announced today for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2004, total net revenue on a continuing operations basis increased approximately 3.9% to $14,378,000 from $13,842,000 in the same period in 2003. For the full year, total net revenue on a continuing operations basis decreased approximately 3.6% to $58,903,000 from approximately $61,099,000 in 2003. Results from continuing operations exclude the Company's Distribution Segment which was sold on January 12, 2005. OptiCare also reported income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2004 of $286,000 compared to a loss of $640,000 for the fourth quarter 2003. For the year ended December 31, 2004, OptiCare reported income from continuing operations of $38,000 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $7,053,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The loss in 2003 resulted primarily from a one-time charge of $1,896,000 related to an early extinguishment of debt and the write-off of $4,927,000 in deferred tax assets. "Our 2004 operating results demonstrate that the Company continues to focus on its core businesses of Consumer Vision and Managed Vision and has established a solid foundation to build upon," stated, Christopher J. Walls, OptiCare's President and Chief Executive Officer. In addition, on January 12, 2005, OptiCare closed a series of transactions which resulted in a significant debt reduction while increasing its equity. Taken together, these transactions lowered OptiCare's long-term debt and accounts payable by approximately $6,145,000 and $1,530,000, respectively, and increased its equity by approximately $4,445,000. The transactions included, among other things, the following: * Palisade Concentrated Equity Partnership, L.P., OptiCare's majority stockholder, and Linda Yimoyines, the spouse of OptiCare's Chairman and former Chief Executive Officer, purchased for approximately $4,445,000 of OptiCare's Series D Preferred Stock; * OptiCare sold, effective December 31, 2004, substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of its Distribution Division, which consisted of Wise Optical and its Optical Buying Group, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4,150,000, less a working capital adjustment of approximately $575,000 and closing costs of approximately $349,000, to Wise Optical, LLC and AECC/Pearlman Buying Group, LLC, both entities formed by OptiCare's Chairman and former Chief Executive Officer; and * OptiCare amended the terms of its revolving credit, term loan and security agreement with OptiCare's senior lender, to reduce the tangible net worth covenant for December 2004 and January 2005 from ($3,000,000) to ($6,500,000). Without this amendment, OptiCare would have been in violation of the tangible net worth covenant at December 31, 2004. Under the revolving credit, term loan and security agreement, as amended; OptiCare must maintain a tangible net worth of at least ($3,000,000) million after February 1, 2005. "The recent sale of our Distribution Segment and the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock significantly lowered our debt, increased stockholders' equity and will reduce our debt service on a prospective basis which should improve the Company's financial performance in 2005," stated Mr. Walls.
