Financial Results
All amounts are in US dollars, unless specified otherwise, and results expressed in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), which replaces Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Policies ("GAAP") effective January 1, 2010 for all publicly accountable enterprises in Canada.
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company reported a total sales increase of 14% to $1,833,242 for the quarter, an increase of $224,722 from $1,608,520 during the previous year, and an increase of 27% over the first quarter of 2011. Six months sales for 2011 of $3,278,655 were up 18%, from sales of $2,789,207 in 2010. This increase was attributable to increased demand for our existing products and improved budget availability for capital equipment purchases across all customer types and geographic regions. The Company's customers in the regenerative medicine field primarily use the Company's products in research applications.
Gross profit for the quarter increased 16% to $1,172,842 in the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to $1,009,321 in the previous year and increased to $2,053,372 versus $1,719,522 for the comparable six month periods. Gross profit as a percentage of sales were slightly higher at 64.0% for the quarter and 62.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2011, versus 62.7% and 61.6% for the comparable periods in 2010, due primarily to product mix and increased sales spread over a relatively constant overhead base.
Operating expenses were $1,460,591 and 2,960,476 for the quarter and six-months ended June 30, 2011, up from $1,332,421 and $2,543,293 for comparable periods during the previous year. This increase in operating expenses represents continued strategic investment in the growth of the Company.
Research and development expenses increased from $228,947 to $320,281 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 and from $479,254 to $619,728 for the six-month period due to continued development of new products. Sales and marketing expenses increased from $595,107 to $675,063 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 and from $1,080,794 to $1,309,240 for the six-month period due to the expansion of our sales and marketing staff, commission expense on higher sales volume, and increased variable costs of selling.
General and administrative (G&A) expenses decreased from $508,367 to $465,247. for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the prior quarter and increased from $983,245 to $1,031,508 for the six-month period due primarily to increases in staffing, as well as foreign currency valuation adjustments related to the convertible debentures issued in August 2010 and March 2011 issued in Canadian dollars.
Net interest expense increased from $62,165 to $155,489 for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 and from $132,114 to $282,510 for the six-month period. The increase was due primarily to the non-cash interest expense, both coupon and accreted, on the Company's convertible debentures.
The net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 increased from $385,265 to $443,328 and from $955,885 to $1,189,614 for the six-month period of the previous year. The increased loss was due primarily to the additional investments by the Company in research, product development, sales and marketing, additional general and administrative expenses and interest expense, partially offset by increased gross profit resulting from increased sales.
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had 24,415,157 common shares. As of June 30, 2011, there were 5,694,440 warrants outstanding to purchase common shares: 5,500,005, at a price of Cdn $0.60 which originally were set to expire in April 2011 but were extended by eighteen months to October 2012; and 194,435 warrants to acquire one common share at an exercise price of Cdn$0.50, expiring in August 2012 and March 2013, issued to its financial advisors in connection with the August 2010 and March 2011 sales of the convertible debentures.
