MONTREAL, CANADA (TSX: ARA), a Canadian medical device company and a leader in optical molecular imaging products for the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries, today announces its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2007. All dollar amounts referenced herein are in US dollars, unless otherwise stated.

ART incurred a net loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 of $2,200,777 or $0.04 per share, compared to $3,324,441 or $0.07 per share for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, the net loss was $6,939,854 or $0.12 per share, compared to $10,109,538 or $0.21 per share, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006.

Third Quarter Highlights:

- ART appointed Mr. Dino DiCamillo to take on responsibility for direct distribution of the Optix® preclinical imaging system in North America and Europe, as part of several key additions to the ART commercialization team, an initiative which will offer improved service and applications support, as well as a significant gross margin increase for each system sold.

- ART announced the initiation of a prepurchase and evaluation process for a SoftScan® optical breast imaging system at the Ville Marie Medical and Women's Health Center in Montreal, Canada, and anticipates that it will soon make its first breakthrough sale of SoftScan in Canada. Other key reference medical accounts are in the process of being established.

- ART formed a collaboration with the National Research Council of Canada's Institute for Biological Sciences for the development of client-oriented diagnostic applications using the Company's proprietary time domain technology, in the emerging discipline of molecular imaging.

- ART announced an agreement to develop and conduct clinical research with the Stanford Breast Imaging Section of Stanford University to evaluate the effectiveness of the SoftScan optical breast imaging system in treatment monitoring and diagnosis of breast cancer.

- ART presented Optix- and Fenestra®-based research at the Joint Molecular Imaging Conference of the Academy of Molecular Imaging (AMI) and the Society for Molecular Imaging (SMI), held in Rhode Island

- ART initiated a process designed to rationalize its operations and reduce expenses with a focus on commercialization and support of all of its products.

Post-Quarter Highlights:

- ART has signed an underwriting and agency agreement with a syndicate of underwriters for the offering of up to 31,250,000 common shares of ART at a price of CAD$0.16, for total gross proceeds of up to CAD$5,000,000.

- ART has secured a Letter of Purchase Intent from Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre for a SoftScan breast imaging system, engaging the facility in a formal purchasing process.

- ART has been granted a new U.S. patent for optimal selection of SoftScan optical wavelengths.

Revenues

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2007, revenues were $267,741, compared to $821,640 for the same period ended September 30, 2006. Sales resulting from products amounted to $267,741, compared to $821,640 for the same quarter of last year. There were no sales resulting from maintenance for the nine-month period, compared to $164,617 in the same period ended September 30, 2006. Revenues resulting from sales of products for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 amounted to $703,907, compared to $2,288,251 for the same period of last year. During the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the Company sold add-ons and Fenestra products. There were no Optix units sold during that period (1 unit during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007) compared to two units (nine for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006) during the same quarter in the previous year. In 2007, the Company did not perform any upgrades of single-wavelength systems to the new multiwavelength system. Two systems were upgraded during the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. Sales from products include the multi-wavelength Optix system as well as add-ons and the sales of the Fenestra product. Sales resulting from maintenance include upgrades of the single-wavelength system to the multiwavelength system and the sale of demonstration units.

As explained in the past, the Company is in a transition phase for the distribution of its Optix system. ART is now implementing a new sales distribution model, comprised of a mix of direct and indirect sales channels. In August 2007, ART indicated that it has retained exclusivity for itself with respect to distributing directly in North America and in Europe. In light of this transition, the distribution agreement with GE Healthcare for the distribution of the Optix system is no longer in effect. However, the Company is still in discussions with GE Healthcare for the distribution of the Optix system in Asia, and more specifically in Japan where ART's Fenestra contrast agent product is already distributed by GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences KK. Through this distribution model, ART intends to develop a closer rapport with its customers, in particular with large pharmaceutical companies, with whom it has established favourable relationships. As part of its new marketing strategy, ART is in the process of recruiting up to five sales professionals, combined with in-house application specialists. This will allow the Company to solidify sales while providing higher gross margins per system sold. The strategy ART has adopted has been benchmarked against highly successful sales programs used by high-end imaging product companies, and validated through consultations with senior and experienced sales executives.

Furthermore, ART has developed a commercialization plan to allow for the sale and support of SoftScan systems in Canada and in Europe, including the hiring of an experienced executive director responsible for the effective marketing and sale of SoftScan. In the third quarter of 2007, ART announced the initiation of a prepurchase and evaluation process for a SoftScan optical breast imaging system at the Ville Marie Medical and Women's Health Center ("Ville Marie") in Montreal, Quebec. Ville Marie thus intends to introduce SoftScan into its future first-line multi-imaging breast cancer detection and treatment monitoring process, after an evaluation by its staff of the on-site capabilities of SoftScan and its seamless integration into the patients' workflow. Following the close of the third quarter, ART also announced that it had secured a letter of purchase intent from the Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre ("Sunnybrook") in Toronto, for the purchase of a SoftScan system. Sunnybrook had based its decision on encouraging preliminary results obtained during an ongoing pilot study at their facility to determine the role for the SoftScan system in monitoring response to treatment of breast cancer. These sales activities reflect the strategy of the Company to establish reference accounts with facilities and thought leaders that are in a position to demonstrate the value of the technology from an economic point of view. This approach is expected to lead the way for future growth opportunities.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 was $91,120, compared to $452,020 in the third quarter of 2006. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, cost of sales was $313,312, compared to $1,457,686 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. During the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007, ART generated a gross margin of 66% and 55% respectively from the sales of its products compared to 45% and 42% for the same periods in the previous year. The gross margin generated on the sales of maintenance was 16% for both the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006. The increase of the gross margin, as a percentage of sales, in the three-month and nine-month periods ended in September 30, 2007 compared to the same periods of the previous year, is due to the mixed composition of sales. The sales of Fenestra products represented a higher proportion of the total sales in the current period of 2007 and provided a higher margin as a percentage of sales than the sales of Optix systems. Cost of sales consisted principally of raw materials, royalties and manufacturing costs.

Operating expenses

The Company's research and development ("R&D") expenditures for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007, net of investment tax credits amounted to $1,093,057, compared to $1,970,493 for the same period ended September 30, 2006. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, R&D expenditures, net of investment tax credits, were $3,990,556, compared to $6,319,605 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. The R&D expenditures consist principally of the salaries and fringe benefit expenses of employees involved in R&D projects, the consultation fees paid for clinical studies, the cost associated with the preparation and conduct of the clinical studies and of the cost of prototypes. The decrease in R&D expenditures during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007, compared to the same periods last year, relates to the medical sector and in particular the SoftScan program, and is mainly due to lower contract research costs engaged in the current period of 2007 following the Health Canada approval obtained in December 2006 and the CE marking received for Europe in February 2007. The decrease of clinical testing expenses incurred in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period of 2006 approximates $2,003,561.

Selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 totaled $1,088,071, compared to $999,682 for the same period ended September 30, 2006. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, SG&A expenses were $3,706,266, compared to $2,979,117 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006. SG&A expenses consist principally of salaries, professional fees and other costs associated with marketing activities and intellectual property maintenance fees. The increase in SG&A expenses during the three-month and the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same periods of 2006 mainly results from direct marketing activities to support the commercialization of the Optix, SoftScan and Fenestra products.

Net Loss

As a result, the net loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 2007 was $2,200,777 or $0.04 per share, compared to $3,324,441 or $0.07 per share for the three-month period ended September 30, 2006. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, the net loss was $6,939,854 or $0.12 per share, compared to $10,109,538 or $0.21 per share, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006.

Financial Outlook

On November 13, 2007, the Company has signed an underwriting and agency agreement with a syndicate of underwriters. Simultaneously, the Company filed a final prospectus with securities regulatory authorities for a total offering of up to CAD$5,000,000 at a price of CAD$0.16 per common share which would result in the issuance of a total of up to 31,250,000 common shares. The underwriters also have the option to acquire up to an additional 4,351,875 common shares at the same issue price of CAD$0.16 per share within 30 days of the closing of the offering. ART currently anticipates to close the offering on November 27, 2007. On a pro forma basis, as at September 30, 2007, considering this financing round, the Company will have US$6,153,417 of cash (net of financing fees and related costs) and US$1,834,495 in accounts receivable and investment tax credits to fund new and ongoing activities. The Company also has an Optix systems inventory already funded and which could generate between US$3 million and US$4 million of revenue.
