GAITHERSBURG, Md., Aug. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BioVeris Corporation (NASDAQ:BIOV) reported today the financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2005.
BioVeris adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN 46), as of March 31, 2004 based on a determination that Meso Scale Diagnostics, LLC. (MSD) qualified as a variable interest entity with the Company as the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, beginning as of March 31, 2004, the Company consolidated the financial information of MSD in its financial statements. In August 2004, the Company and MSD entered into a settlement agreement that resolved litigation between the parties and constituted a reconsideration event under FIN 46. The Company has determined that it no longer meets the conditions to be designated as the primary beneficiary of MSD, as certain provisions of the settlement agreement reallocated the obligation to absorb the majority of MSD's future expected losses and beginning August 12, 2004, the Company deconsolidated the financial results of MSD. Accordingly, the statement of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 includes the consolidated revenue and expenses of MSD and the quarter ended June 30, 2005 includes only the financial results of BioVeris and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
BioVeris recorded revenues of $4.9 million for the fiscal 2006 first quarter ended June 30, 2005, compared to $8.2 million in the corresponding prior year period. Of the $3.3 million decrease, $3.0 million represents MSD revenues which were consolidated with BioVeris last year. Revenues include product sales of $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, compared to $7.8 million in the corresponding prior year period, of which $3.0 million were due to the consolidation of MSD's product sales. BioVeris' product sales in the current quarter were from $2.3 million of biodefense products and $2.3 million of products for the life science market. These changes in product sales in the current quarter reflect the change of orders and product deliveries for biodefense and life science products, which are based on customers' requirements.
Product costs were $2.0 million (45% of total product sales) for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 compared to $4.6 million (59% of total product sales) in the corresponding prior year period. The current year decrease of $2.6 million consists of $2.3 million due to the consolidation of MSD's product costs last year and a $300,000 reduction in BioVeris' product costs.
Research and development expenses decreased to $4.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 from $7.2 million in the corresponding prior year period. Of the $2.4 million decrease, $2.7 million represents MSD research and development expenses, offset by a $300,000 increase in BioVeris' expenses. BioVeris research and development expenditures increased in the current period due primarily to higher facilities and personnel costs. Research and development expenses primarily relate to ongoing development costs and product enhancements associated with the M-SERIES family of products, development of new assays and research and development of new systems and technologies, including point-of-care products. Future research and development costs are expected to increase as product development and core research expand, including costs associated with efforts in vaccines, developing clinical diagnostics and biodefense testing products, and development of a proprietary approach for determining an individual's personal immune status through unique diagnostic test panels.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $5.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 and $9.7 million in the corresponding prior year period. Of the $4.0 million decrease, $3.1 million represents MSD selling, general and administrative expenses. BioVeris' decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to lower professional fees in the current year.
BioVeris' net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 was $6.7 million ($0.25 per common share, compared to a net loss of $12.9 million ($0.48 per common share) for the quarter ended June 30, 2004.
At June 30, 2005, BioVeris had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $87.1 million.
