RUTHERFORD, N.J., Aug. 5, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cancer Genetics, Inc. (OTCQB:CGIX) ("CGI" or the "Company"), an emerging leader in DNA-based cancer diagnostics, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights:

Revenue for the second quarter of 2013 increased 60% to $1.8 million, compared with $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2012.

Clinical test volume increased 97% to 3,204 tests in the second quarter, compared with 1,623 tests in the second quarter of 2012.

Gross profit increased 792% to $553,000 in the second quarter, from $62,000 for the same period of 2012, while gross margin improved to 30% compared to 5% in the second quarter of 2012 and 12% for the first quarter of 2013.

Operating expenses were unchanged at $2.3 million in the second quarter, compared to the same period of 2012. R&D expense for the second quarter decreased 13% to $456,000, compared to $527,000 in the second quarter of 2012. Sales and marketing expense increased 19% to $447,000 in the second quarter, from $376,000 in the year-ago period.

Loss from operations in the second quarter decreased 22% to $1.7 million, compared to $2.2 million in the same period of 2012.

Adjusted for one-time IPO-related debt conversion costs, net loss for the second quarter was $2.3 million, compared to a net loss of $1.9 million, in the second quarter of 2012. This increase in loss was primarily the result of expense related to a $170,000 decrease in the fair value of derivative warrant liability, as compared with $1.5 million in non-cash income related to an increase in fair value of derivative warrant liability in the second quarter of 2012. Interest expense decreased from $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2012 to $388,000 in the second quarter of 2013. GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2013 was $9.1 million compared to a loss of $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2012.

Six-Month Financial Highlights:

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 increased 54% to $3.1 million, compared with $2.0 million for the same period of 2012.

Clinical test volume increased 58% to 5,115 tests in the period, compared with 3,233 tests in the first six months of 2012.

Gross profit increased 847% to $701,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, from $74,000 for the same period of 2012, while gross margin improved to 23% compared to 4% in the first six months of 2012.

Operating expenses increased 16% to $4.7 million in the period, compared to $4.1 million in the first six months of 2012. R&D expense decreased 9% to $951,000, compared to $1.1 million in the same period of 2012. Sales and marketing expense increased 16% to $832,000 in the six-month period, from $716,000 in the year-ago period.

Loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same period of 2012 remained unchanged at $4.0 million.

Adjusted for one-time IPO-related debt conversion costs, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $68,000, compared to a net loss of $2.9 million in the year-ago period. This was primarily the result of non-cash income related to changes in the fair value of derivative warrant liability and $664,000 received from the sale of certain state tax NOLs. Interest expense for the six-month period of 2013 decreased 14% to $1.7 million from $1.9 million in the six month period of 2012. As of the Company's initial public offering in April 2013, $9.6 million of debt was converted to equity, which is expected to significantly decrease interest expense going forward. GAAP net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $6.8 million compared to a loss of $2.9 million for the same period in 2012.

In April, CGI completed a 690,000 share equity offering, including the 90,000 share overallotment option, for which the Company received gross proceeds of $6.9 million. After deducting transaction fees and offering-related expenses not previously paid, CGI netted approximately $5.0 million. As of June 30, cash-on-hand was $1.9 million, compared to $217,000 at March 31, 2013. Cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $3.7 million, compared to $4.1 million cash used in the first six months of 2012.
