Inverness Medical Innovations Announces Financial Results for Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2002

WALTHAM, Mass., Feb. 20 - Inverness Medical Innovations, Inc. (Amex: IMA - News), a leading provider of women's health and nutritional products and a developer of advanced medical devices, today announced its financial results for the quarter and year ending December 31, 2002.

Inverness Medical Innovations, Inc. was formed in May 2001 as a subsidiary of Inverness Medical Technology, Inc. (IMT), and subsequently split-off as an independent public company as part of a split-off and merger transaction whereby Johnson & Johnson acquired IMT in November 2001. As part of the split-off and merger, Inverness Medical Innovations acquired all rights to IMT's women's health, nutritional supplement and clinical diagnostics businesses, as well as certain intellectual property. Because Inverness Medical Innovations had not historically been operated or accounted for as a stand-alone business, the results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2001 discussed in this press release refer to historical consolidated financial statements for Inverness Medical Innovations' businesses which have been carved out of IMT 's financial statements in accordance with the requirements of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because the financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2001 have been carved out of IMT's past financial statements, they may not reflect what Inverness Medical Innovations' results of operations, financial position and cash flows would have been had it been a separate, stand-alone entity during those periods.

For the three months ended December 31, 2002, Inverness Medical Innovations reported income, excluding non-recurring and certain non-cash charges and income, of $2.4 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to a loss, excluding non-recurring and certain non-cash charges, of $4.6 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2001. Net income under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for the fourth quarter of 2002 was $1.9 million, compared to a net loss of $25.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. After deducting an aggregate charge of $280,000 consisting of amortization of the discounts and non-cash dividends on the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, net income available to common shareholders was $1.6 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2002 compared to a net loss available to common shareholders of $25.9 million, or $3.99 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2001. A detailed reconciliation of our income, excluding non-recurring and certain non-cash charges and income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to our net income under GAAP is included in the schedules to this press release.

In the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company had net revenues of $65.0 million, a $52.0 million increase over the net revenues of $13.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. Approximately 74% of product sales for the fourth quarter related to consumer products and 26% related to professional diagnostic products. The great majority of the revenue increase was due to the additional revenues contributed by Unipath, the women's health unit acquired from Unilever on December 20, 2001, IVC, the nutritional supplement unit acquired on March 19, 2002 and Wampole, the professional diagnostic business acquired on September 20, 2002.

For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company reported income, excluding non-recurring and non-cash charges, of $1.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, compared to a loss, excluding non-recurring charges and income, of $4.0 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2001. Net loss under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $31.1 million compared to a net loss of $24.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. After deducting an aggregate charge of $11.9 million consisting of accelerated amortization of the discounts and non-cash dividends on the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, net loss available to common shareholders was $43.1 million, or $4.33 per diluted share, in the year ended December 31, 2002 compared to a net loss available to common shareholders of $24.7 million, or $3.88 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2001. A detailed reconciliation of our income, excluding non-recurring and certain non-cash charges and income, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to our net loss under GAAP is included in the schedules to this press release.

Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2002 were $207.9 million compared to net revenues of $47.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2001. The great majority of the revenue increase was due to the additional revenues contributed by Unipath, IVC and Wampole.
