"SurModics is pleased to report strong financial and operating results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2006, achieving record revenue and earnings," said Bruce Barclay, President and CEO. "We delivered broad-based revenue growth, setting new records in each of our three operating segments - Drug Delivery, Hydrophilic and Other, and Diagnostics and Drug Discovery. In addition to strong CYPHER sales, we also delivered record non-Cordis revenue in the quarter."
"Our exceptional team of SurModics employees once again attained several significant operating milestones during the quarter," continued Barclay. "Working in concert with the Donaldson Company, we completed a significant agreement with Corning Life Sciences to market and distribute jointly developed synthetic extracellular matrix cell culture products. Our ophthalmology division signed its first license agreement, granting Bausch & Lomb access to our Genistein technology. Moreover, we announced additional customers using our hydrophilic coating technology on their DES delivery systems. In addition, we signed an agreement to jointly develop a drug-eluting prostatic stent with AbbeyMoor Medical."
Revenue in the Hydrophilic and Other segment achieved the highest year-over-year growth rate of the company's three operating segments. "We are pleased with the results we have achieved," commented Barclay. "Our strong competitive position in the hydrophilic marketplace has allowed us to build a broad and growing base of customers currently using our advanced lubricity coating technologies to enhance their medical devices. Further, the trend toward minimally invasive procedures has increased demand for hydrophilic coatings in the marketplace, favorably positioning us for sustained success."
