TalkingStocks.com Issues Investment Rating of `Accumulate' for Isonics Corporation

Report Comments on the Benefits Derived from Yesterday's $3.3 Million Financing Round


DALLAS, Oct. 7, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- TalkingStocks.com announces that Senior Investment Analyst, Jeff Bishop, has issued an investment rating of `Accumulate' for Isonics Corporation (Nasdaq:ISON). Mr. Bishop in the report issued today said, "Isonics appears to be a solid investment at current levels. We feel there has been no material change in the company's fundamentals to warrant the latest price decline. The firm has merely fallen victim to adverse market conditions. In fact, the recent news from the company encourages us that it is still on track to deliver its innovative products."

Bishop adds, "There remains an incredible upside contingent on the company following through with its strategic initiatives. It is highly likely that the Semiconductor or Homeland Security divisions will take this stock to much higher levels. We recommend adding this stock over the next few months in anticipation of a successful product being brought to market in the future."

Isonics Corporation has three business divisions: (1) Isonics Semiconductor, (2) Isonics Life Sciences, and (3) Homeland Defense. Isonics is a world leader in isotopically engineered materials and through its semiconductor division produces isotopically pure silicon-28 chemicals and wafers for the semiconductor industry. Through advances in nanotechnology, the Company is also focused on research and development opportunities for further, value-added product and application development. Isonics' Life Sciences division markets and sells stable isotopes for the health care industry such as carbon-13 for diagnostic breath tests and drug design, and radioisotopes and stable isotopes, such as oxygen-18 for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
