Polydex Pharmaceuticals Issues First Quarter Financial Results
TORONTO, June 15, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Polydex Pharmaceuticals Limited (Pink Sheets:POLXF) (the “Company”) reports financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the three-months ending April 30, 2012. All figures are reported in U.S. dollars.
Installation of a new reactor, and replacement of components of the company’s distillation equipment, resulted in a decrease in production and sales for a period of two months during the first quarter. Full production has now been resumed, with the benefit of these equipment upgrades.
“We’ve seen a significant demand for product over the last several quarters,” said George Usher, President and CEO. “With these new opportunities emerging from overseas markets, we are planning and preparing for increased production and distribution. We now have several product registrations in process in Europe and elsewhere, and here at home, our order book continues to grow.”
The Company has also been reviewing other projects in its portfolio and is actively pursuing their potential for creating new market opportunities.
