Calypte Announces Fourth Quarter and Year-End Financial Results; Adds Planned Parenthood Golden Gate to Customer Base
ALAMEDA, Calif., Feb 27, 2003 (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, announces financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2002.
Recent Highlights
During the second half of 2002 and in first part of 2003, Calypte's management team has moved forward with its objective to advance sales growth by increasing product distribution and gaining further acceptance in the marketplace. Recent highlights include:
-- Achieved sequential-quarterly revenue growth of 64% from $493,000 to $809,000 in the fourth quarter. -- As announced today, added Planned Parenthood Golden Gate to the growing list of customers utilizing Calypte's urine HIV-1 tests. As one of the larger Planned Parenthood affiliates, this relationship represents an excellent opportunity to demonstrate the benefits of urine testing to other Planned Parenthood chapters and similar organizations. -- Qualified for distribution in the state of California by PathNet Esoteric Laboratory Institute, which specializes in pathology, cytopathology and amplified esoteric sexually transmitted disease (STD) testing for numerous women's healthcare providers. Calypte and PathNet intend to work together to develop and implement outreach programs to notify PathNet's clients and other healthcare providers about the test availability. -- Received its first and second commercial orders from its Chinese distributor for a total of over 260,000 tests. The first order for 100,000 tests was received in October and shipped in December and the second order for 160,000 tests was received in January 2003, sooner than anticipated, and will be shipped in the next several weeks. -- Executed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Safe Blood for Africa Foundation to market and distribute Calypte's urine-based HIV-1 antibody tests and Serum Western Blot tests in sub-Saharan Africa. The tests are to be used as blood donor pre-screening tools in Safe Blood for Africa Foundation's mission to help prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS throughout 34 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. -- Joined the Community Healthcare Network's (CHN) menu of testing services. CHN, a not-for-profit organization, oversees a network of nine health care centers and three mobile vans, which reach over 60,000 individuals and their families in New York City annually. -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) eliminated the requirement for lot release testing for the Calypte HIV-1 Urine EIA, as the result of a demonstrated multi-year history of successful product manufacture. Elimination of the FDA lot release testing is expected to reduce the production-to-market time by two to eight weeks and decrease associated production costs without sacrificing any product quality. A similar elimination of FDA lot release testing for the Cambridge Biotech HIV-1 Urine Western Blot is also being sought by the company. -- Gained recognition for Calypte's test in a study led by Johns Hopkins University that concluded urine-based HIV screening can be an effective tool for identifying and treating infected persons in high-prevalence inner city communities, and leads to increased voluntary HIV testing versus testing for HIV with blood samples. The test was published in the December 2002 JAIDS Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes. -- Increased government relations expertise by hiring Dr. Richard George, a CDC and HIV veteran, to spearhead global programs to increase awareness of the importance of HIV testing, highlight the benefits of urine-based testing, develop HIV testing programs and secure capital to fund programs with public sector and government-sponsored agencies. -- Appointed Ms. Dian Harrison, CEO of Planned Parenthood Golden Gate Chapter, to the company's Board of Directors effective February 24, 2003. The company intends to utilize Ms. Harrison's experience educating and administering care in reproductive and general health issues.
"During the last quarter of 2002, we believe that our continued progress was evidenced by the increase in sequential revenue and our expanded distribution channels," stated Anthony Cataldo, executive chairman of Calypte. "We believe that in the first half of 2003, Calypte will continue to build its distribution channels and sign on new customers, to provide future growth. As these customers generally need approximately six months to ramp up and provide a normalized revenue, we hope to benefit during the second half of the year."
Nancy Katz, Calypte's president and chief executive officer, stated, "Calypte has also made important strides operationally. As Calypte already has FDA-approved manufacturing facilities, during a review of production goals for our Rapid HIV-1 Test, which is under development, we determined that we will manufacture the test internally. Thus, we plan to utilize our expertise and strict quality controls, and we expect to increase efficiencies and rate of production. As our decision to manufacture our proposed Rapid HIV-1 Test internally will require us to obtain the necessary funding to purchase equipment and materials as well as time to finalize product design, we have delayed our IDE submission. However, we believe this strategy and these initial capital investments will provide significantly greater long-term return and margins on the Rapid product once developed."
Cataldo continued, "Our long-term goal is to maximize the potential of our core urine-based testing solutions. We have built a foundation with our urine HIV-1 screening and confirmatory tests. Now, one of our highest priorities is to secure the necessary funding to complete our Rapid HIV-1 Urine Test IDE submission and to be able to meet our current manufacturing requirements for our FDA approved products. Upon filing the IDE, we intend to launch the Rapid Test internationally, which is our largest target market. At the same time, we intend to pursue FDA clearance to distribute the Rapid Test product domestically. We can begin clinical trials 30 days after our IDE submission, and from there we would anticipate receiving FDA clearance in 12-18 months, allowing 6-12 months for our trials and a maximum of 6 months for the FDA's review process. We will also simultaneously continue our research and development of tests in the areas of infectious and other diseases."
For the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2002, Calypte recorded revenues of $809,000, compared with $2.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. The net loss attributable to common stockholders for the quarter was approximately $6.3 million, or $0.05 per common share, compared with a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $1.2 million, or $0.03 per common share, for the three months ended December 31, 2001. The net loss for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2002 included $3.6 million in non-cash charges related the grants of common stock and fully vested options and warrants as compensation for services that are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and non-cash interest expense. During the quarter ended December 31, 2001, there was less than $0.1 million in non-cash charges.
For the year-ended December 31, 2002, Calypte reported revenues of $3.7 million, compared with $6.8 million in 2001. The net loss attributable to common stockholders for 2002 was $13.4 million, or $0.17 per common share, compared with a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $9.2 million, or $0.30 per common share, for the year ended December 31, 2001. Calypte's 2002 operations and results were significantly impacted by the second quarter decision that resulted in an almost-complete wind down of its operations due to insufficient cash to fund continuing operations. This decrease also reflects lower revenues, increased non-cash-operating expenses, and an increase in non-cash interest expense related to the financings, offset by extraordinary income related to the extinguishment of debt. The net loss for the year-ended December 31, 2002 included $5.1 million in non-cash charges related to the grants of common stock and fully vested options and warrants as compensation for services that are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and non-cash interest expense. During the year ended December 31, 2001 these non-cash charges were approximately $1.6 million.
Calypte will hold a conference call today at 11:00 a.m. (ET), 8:00 a.m. (PT). Investors can access the call from the investor section of the Calypte web site, www.calypte.com.

Planned Parenthood Golden Gate to Offer Calypte's Urine HIV-1 Antibody Tests; Earnings Results Conference Call to be Conducted Today
ALAMEDA, Calif., Feb 27, 2003 (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, announced today that Planned Parenthood Golden Gate has added Calypte's urine HIV-1 test as an option for clients being tested for HIV.
Planned Parenthood Golden Gate, an affiliate of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, serves more than 65,000 men, women and teens in the San Francisco Bay area each year. Its nine health centers, located in Alameda, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Sonoma counties, perform approximately 5,100 HIV tests per year.
"We decided to provide urine HIV testing to increase the convenience for our clients, and potentially increase HIV testing in the Bay Area," said Dian Harrison, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood Golden Gate. "The ability to screen for HIV, pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases from the same urine specimen provides added convenience for both our clients and our healthcare providers. We also anticipate cost savings from reducing the need for multiple client samples."
"The strong partnership between Calypte and Planned Parenthood Golden Gate represents another milestone for Calypte in raising awareness for urine-based testing, as well as increasing distribution through proactive healthcare providers," said Nancy Katz, Calypte's President and CEO. "As one of the larger Planned Parenthood affiliates, this relationship represents an excellent opportunity to demonstrate the benefits of urine testing to other Planned Parenthood affiliates. Based on our experiences with other organizations, we expect Planned Parenthood Golden Gate will experience an increase in voluntary testing for HIV because the test is completely non-invasive and simple to collect."
Calypte will also hold a conference call today at 11:00 a.m. (ET), 8:00 a.m. (PT) to discuss its fourth quarter and year-end earnings results. Investors can access the call from the investor section of the Calypte web site, www.calypte.com.
