FONAR Announces Financial Results for First Quarter of Fiscal 2010
MELVILLE,
NEW YORK, November 23, 2009 - FONAR Corporation (NASDAQ-FONR), The Inventor of MR Scanning™, today announced
its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, which ended September 30, 2009. The loss from operations
improved 23% from a loss of $1.8 million, for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008, to a loss of $1.4
million for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2009.
The net loss for the first fiscal 2010 quarter ended September 30, 2009 was $1.7 million including
a charge of $0.4 million due to prepayment of a note receivable. This compared to the fiscal quarter one year
earlier, ended September 30, 2008, which was a loss of $0.5 million but included a gain of $1.4 million from
the sale of a consolidated subsidiary.
For the first three months of fiscal 2010 ended September 30, 2009, the loss per common share (basic
and diluted) was $0.35, as compared to $0.09 loss per common share (basic and diluted) for the same period of
fiscal 2009.
Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $7.5 million as compared to $6.8
million for the same period one year earlier. Service and repair revenues were $2.8 million in the first fiscal
quarter of 2010 as compared to $2.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Total management and other fees
were at $2.5 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2010 as compared to $2.8 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 2009.
As of September 30, 2009, there were 140 FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI units installed
worldwide. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, total product sales were at $1.6 million.
At the end of the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2010, total current assets were $19.2 million,
total assets were $27.5 million, total current liabilities were $30.0 million and total long-term liabilities
were $2.1 million. Total cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities increased 12% from $1.2 million
on June 30, 2009 to $1.4 million on September 30, 2009.
On October 9, 2009, FONAR announced that the NASDAQ Stock Market notified FONAR that it complies
with all NASDAQ Capital Market continued listing standards. Specifically, the Company satisfies NASDAQ Listing
Rule 5550(b)(3) which requires the Company to have a minimum $500,000 of net income from continuing operations
in the latest fiscal year.
This followed the announcement on October 5, 2009 of the Company’s most recent Form 10-K,
whereby net income from continuing operations was $1.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 as compared
to a net loss of $13.5 million for fiscal 2008. Total revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 were $39.7
million as compared to $35.6 million for fiscal 2008. (Visit www.fonar.com/news/100509.htm
for details.)
“The Company is planning to expand the number of FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI
centers under management and to increase the scan volume at its existing centers,” said Raymond Damadian,
M. D., president and chairman of FONAR. “The UPRIGHT® MRI is a unique scanner with many advantages
that other recumbent-only, single-position MRI scanners can not perform. There are over one million spine surgeries
performed in the United States each year and I considerate it essential from all we’ve learned from our
installed base of UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ scanners that no patient proceed to surgery without a prior,
fully weight-bearing UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI examination. FBSS, the failed back surgery syndrome,
is a dramatic diagnostic category that should be retired. It currently is responsible for a 0%-40% failure rate
in spine surgery (The Failed Spine, 2005, p.123, M. Szpalski & R. Gunzburg, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins).
The literature is now replete with publications demonstrating key changes in spine pathology that are visible
only in UPRIGHT® fully weight-bearing MRI and in the full range of positions the patient normally occupies.”
Commenting on the first fiscal quarter results, Dr. Damadian said, “We had experienced three
straight quarters of profit before the current quarter which had a net loss that included a loss on a note receivable.
Given the medical advantages of the FONAR UPRIGHT® Multi-Position™ MRI, and its ability to provide
landscape imaging of the entire spine instead of ‘snap shots,’ we are confident of the benefits our
scanner brings to the public and of our future.”
