MAGELLAN TECHNOLOGY, INC. ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER REVENUE ESTIMATES
DRAPER, Utah, March 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Magellan Technology, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: MGLN) announced today, that based upon results to date, the company expects total first quarter revenues for its wholly owned subsidiary, BioMeridian International, Inc. to be in excess of $1 million. This represents an increase of over 400% from the first quarter of 1998 in which total revenues were $242,000.
The dramatic increase in year-over-year revenue is consistent with management's expectation of over $9 million in total revenue for BioMeridian International, Inc. in 1999. Although the company does not expect to make a profit in the first quarter, management believes it is still in line to end the year with over $2 million in operating income. These statements regarding anticipated results are preliminary and based on partial information and management assumptions.
The company believes there will be continued growth in the future. "We are not surprised by the increase in revenue and we expect BioMeridian International, Inc. to continue to grow," said Blair K. Blacker, President of Magellan Technology, Inc. "and we expect BioMeridian to become profitable towards the end of the second quarter." Management believes their efforts to increase the training and proficiency of the sales force as well as continued investment in customer training and support, will allow BioMeridian to continue to grow at an accelerated pace.
BioMeridian International Inc., Magellan's wholly owned subsidiary was formed in June 1998 when Magellan completed the acquisition of certain licenses and technology from Digital Health, LLC, to join its October 1997 purchase of BioSource, Inc. -- both market leaders in Meridian Stress Assessment (MSA) technology. Digital Health produced the well-known Omega Acubase System; BioSource produced the competitive Listen System. The joining of these two technologies under the Magellan umbrella formed the new market leader in MSA screening equipment, and also created the largest sales infrastructure in the marketplace. BioMeridian released its newly developed BEST system in October 1998.
Magellan Technology, Inc. is the holding company for subsidiaries serving the Health Care and the Aviation Industries. Magellan Technology, Inc. employs talented and innovative personnel who develop and market leading edge technologies in their respective marketplaces.
