ALAMEDA, Calif., Oct 24, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Calypte Biomedical Corporation (OTCBB:CALY), the developer and marketer of the only two FDA-approved HIV-1 antibody tests that can be used on urine samples, as well as an FDA-approved serum HIV-1 antibody Western Blot supplemental test, today announced financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2002.
During the third quarter, the company achieved numerous milestones, which management believes will help position Calypte for long-term growth. Accomplishments year to date include:
-- Received funding of over $7 million after the company reversed
its shut down plans and restarted its operations.
-- Rehired 100% of top management staff following the restart of
operations.
-- Resumed business with all of Calypte's premier US insurance
companies after the restart, which includes 9 of the top 10
insurance providers. The insurance carriers have continued to
make purchases through the major laboratories.
-- Signed a new agreement with a distributor for serum Western
blot business.
-- Received first order for Burkina Faso in West Africa.
-- Sponsored visit by Dr. Luc Montagnier to Chinese health
authorities. Dr. Montagnier, World Foundation for AIDS
Research and Prevention president, co-discovered HIV-1 and
discovered HIV-2.
-- Negotiated, and in early October, signed a two-year
distribution agreement with a Chinese pharmaceutical
distributor, ZYPute, for minimum purchases totaling
approximately $3 million. Received the first commercial order
for 100,000 tests.
-- Added last of 50 states to regulatory approval list for urine
HIV-1 life insurance testing.
-- Conducted a preliminary Investigational Device Exemption
(pre-IDE) meeting with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA),
with a goal of accelerating the FDA acceptance process for the
rapid urine test. The company plans to submit the IDE
application in December 2002 and initiate US clinical studies
in February 2003.
-- Completed Phase One testing for three Calypte urine tests with
the World Health Organization (WHO).
-- Focused on developing strategic alliances and resuming
evaluations of urine HIV testing with key, influential
customers.
-- Showcased the results of the feasibility testing for the Rapid
HIV Urine Test at the United States Conference on AIDS, in
Anaheim, California.
-- Secured FDA approval for and implemented several
manufacturing-related cost-reduction/saving measures.
Anthony Cataldo, Calypte's executive chairman, stated, "Our goal for the quarter was to take a cash-constrained company with an outstanding product, and begin building a world-class marketing and distribution platform. Among our most significant milestones was the signing of a new distribution agreement in China, which includes minimum purchase order requirements, and has already brought us a new order from this large and expanding market. We also met with the FDA to accelerate the development of our Rapid Urine HIV-1 Test in the United States. In addition, our domestic distribution partners are executing on their marketing and sales programs."
Cataldo continued, "Although the third quarter results were impacted by the fact that we sold through most of our inventory in the second quarter during the shut-down phase, we expect fourth quarter results to reflect significant progress in our recovery. At this point, we anticipate sequential revenue growth of at least 50 to 75 % during the fourth quarter."
For the third quarter of 2002, Calypte recorded revenues of $493,000 compared to $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2001. The net loss attributable to common stockholders for the quarter was approximately $1.5 million, or $0.02 per common share, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.05 per common share for the three months ended September 30, 2001.
Nancy Katz, Calypte's president and chief executive officer, stated, "Our execution during the quarter has been excellent from all perspectives. Employees are enthusiastically back at work, and both orders and production are increasing. Significant progress has been made on our business plan both domestically and internationally. We have gained new visibility in the capital markets due to the extensive work of our executive chairman. The demonstrated demand for our product worldwide give us confidence for improving results in the quarters to come."
For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, Calypte reported revenues of $2.9 million, compared with $4.5 million in the same period one-year prior. The net loss attributable to common stockholders for the nine-month period of 2002 was $7.2 million, or $0.11 per common share, compared to a net loss of $8.1 million, or $0.27 per common share for the nine months ended September 30, 2001.

Das würde mir zumindest gut gefallen.
Der Umsatz ist zwar auch gefallen, aber jedenfalls ist der Verlust nicht gleichzeitig noch gestiegen, wie das sonst einige Spezialisten hingekriegt haben ;-)
Wir werden sehen....

09.08.2002 - Calypte: Erste Bestellung aus Westafrika
Einen neuen Erfolg gibt es von Calypte Biomed zu berichten. Wie das Unternehmen nun bestätigt hat, erhielt es kürzlich die erste Bestellung für seinen einzigartigen HIV Test, der den Nachweis des Virus im Urin ermöglicht, aus Westafrika. Dies ist ein gewaltiger Durchbruch für das kleine Unternehmen und sollte künftig zu substanziell höheren Umsätzen beitragen, denn mit der Bestellung aus dem 12 Millionen Einwohner umfassenden Westafrikanischen Burkina Faso wird Calypte wohl einige seiner Tests absetzen können und darüber hinaus die Bekanntheit seines Tests weiter steigern. Laut WHO sind bereits 6,5% der 12 Millionen Einwohner in Burkina Faso nachweislich mit dem HI-Virus infiziert. Alleine im Jahr 2001 fielen 44.000 Menschen in Burkina der Seuche zum Opfer, 250.000 Kinder wurden durch AIDS zu Waisen. Calypte plant nun bereits, neben Westafrika, seine Aktivitäten nach Benin, Togo, Mali, Niger und die Elfenbeinküste auszudehnen. Erst kürzlich veröffentlichte Daten mit dem Urin-HIV-Test in Afrikanern konnten zeigen, dass das Verfahren wesentlich genauer als die herkömmlichen Bluttests sind und sich zudem einer weitaus größeren Akzeptanz in der Bevölkerung erfreut. Gute Aussichten für Calypte, denn immerhin sind rund 14 Millionen Menschen auf dem Afrikanischen Kontinent mit dem tödlichen Immunschwäche Virus infiziert.
