FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER
IBEX noted that during the third quarter of fiscal year 2010, the average exchange rate for USD, the currency-of-sale, dropped to $1.03 vs. $1.25 in the third quarter ended April 30, 2009.
Partially as a result of this decline in our currency-of-sale, reported sales in Canadian dollars for the quarter ended April 30, decreased 56% as compared to the exceptional quarter year-ago, and decreased 46% vs. the previous quarter.
Additionally, the year-ago quarter benefited from a large one time order pertaining to an arthritis study which is no longer running. Also contributing to the decline in this quarter vs. year ago was a reduction in orders by one of our major customers of diagnostic enzymes. This customer has now returned to their regular order pattern.
Net earnings for the quarter ended April 30, 2010 were $137,927 or $0.01 per share, compared to net earnings of $242,582, or $0.01 per share, for the same period year ago, representing a decrease of 43%. This decrease is mainly attributable to the decline in sales for the quarter, rather than increasing costs.
Excluding foreign exchange, expenses during the quarter decreased by 4% versus vs. year-ago and also by 19% vs. the previous quarter. Foreign exchange gains of $353,029 were recorded in the quarter vs. a loss of $117,725 in the same period year ago.
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities increased 12% during the quarter to $2,973,894 and are up 40% vs. the same period year ago.
The Company's working capital was up 47% to $3,482,086 as at the end of the third quarter ended April 30, 2010 as compared to $2,390,884 as at the end of the quarter ending April 30, 2009.
"As anticipated, the Company saw a sales decline due to a declining US dollar (which will effect us in the next quarter as well), said Paul Baehr, IBEX President & CEO, however we are encouraged by our increasing cash and working capital levels."

LOOKING FORWARD
IBEX has been successful in bringing its existing business to profitability and is now turning its attention to pursuing growth opportunities, including further growing its base business, and maximizing shareholder value through strategic initiatives with companies where increased market strength and synergies might be obtained.
Looking forward, we are investing in production capacity to meet increasing demand for enzyme-based products, and we are also adding modestly to our assay development team to accelerate the development of a number of new assays.
On a quarter to quarter basis the Company expects that it will see large fluctuation in sales as a result in the volatility of the Canadian dollar, however, it expects that on average, cash flow will increase steadily due to strong fundamentals and the Company's hedging strategy which is more fully explained in the MD&A.
