HILLSIDE, N.J., Nov. 14, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Integrated BioPharma, Inc. (Nasdaq:INBP) reported financial results today for its first quarter ended September 30, 2007. Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 were $12.6 million compared to $12.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Operating income for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was a loss of $1.5 million compared to operating income of $368,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The Company's increase of $1.8 million in operating losses is primarily attributable to the acquisition it made in its fiscal 2007 third quarter in its Nutraceutical Segment, which resulted in increased selling and administrative costs, including marketing costs, with no significant sales in the current quarter, increased consulting professional fees in its Biotechnologies Segment and an increase in our cost of goods sold in our Pharmaceuticals Segment resulting from increased sales in this segment. As previously announced, the Company expects to spin off its biotech business to the Company's shareholders, after which the biotech business will be separately financed and will operate as a wholly-separate company.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, there was a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $1.3 million or ($0.09), compared with a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $514,000, or ($0.04) per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Net loss applicable to common shareholders is calculated after cash Preferred Stock dividends of $119,000 and non-cash Preferred Stock deemed dividends of $563,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
A summary of our financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 is presented below:
