TEMPE, Ariz., Aug. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- OrthoLogic Corp. (NASDAQ:OLGC) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2006.
OrthoLogic reported a net loss of $6.5 million, or $0.16 per share, for the second quarter of 2006, compared to a net loss of $6.6 million or $0.17 per share, for the second quarter of 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 the net loss was $23.0 million, or $0.58 per share, versus a net loss of $12.1 million, or $0.32 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in net loss for the six month period resulted from $8.4 million of in-process research and development costs related to the AzERx acquisition, the inclusion in 2006 of $1.7 million in non-cash stock compensation expense related to the January 1, 2006 adoption of SFAS 123(R) and $1.1 million in non-cash deferred tax expense.
The Company had $75.6 million in cash and investments as of June 30, 2006.
OrthoLogic originally issued guidance for 2006 for $35.0 million in cash burn. With careful adjustments to resource allocation and the interruption of the fracture repair clinical development program, the Company now forecasts a cash burn for 2006 of $15.0 - $17.5 million.
"The OrthoLogic management team is operating with an intense focus on value creation," stated Jock Holliman, Executive Chairman of OrthoLogic. "We have significantly decreased the cash burn through the interruption in the fracture repair clinical trial, a reduction in headcount and stringent cost control. We are continuing to analyze Chrysalin from a scientific, clinical and regulatory standpoint in both fracture repair and diabetic foot ulcer healing to optimize its value to shareholders. We are also continuing the pre-clinical work that will support the initiation of clinical trials for AZX100 in one of several possible indications."
