TORONTO, Feb. 27, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gemoscan Canada, Inc. (TSX-V:GES) (MUN:1GE) ("Gemoscan" or the "Company"), a leading owner and marketer of food sensitivity and dietary management solutions, today reported operational and financial results for the third quarter and 9 months ended December 31, 2013. In this press release, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian currency and results are reported in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Substantially improved results were generated by the Company's persistent focus on the consumer as the principle influencer of the emerging retail health care sector. The Company continues to service consumers through pharmacies, healthcare professionals and third party paramedical clinics, as well as its own paramedical clinics. The Company's programs are available in nearly 600 pharmacies and paramedical clinics across Canada.

The current financial results reflect the Company's previously announced acquisition of Physiomed Kennedy Inc. (the "PKI"), a multidisciplinary paramedical clinic, and consolidate the quarterly financial results for PKI. Also included are management fees generated from the previously-announced definitive agreement with Physiomed Yorkdale Inc. to provide operational management services to it.

For the nine months ended December 31, 2013, total revenues were $1,952,000 representing a dynamic increase of over 116% from $906,120, versus the comparative nine-month period in fiscal 2013. Fiscal third quarter revenues of $911,168, were also better than expected, representing a similarly impressive 158% increase over $352,750, for the comparative three-month period in fiscal 2013.

For the nine months ended December 31, 2013 the Company also reported a lower than expected loss of $725,000, as compared to $1,354,000 for the comparative period in fiscal 2013. Similarly, a reduced fiscal third quarter loss of $103,000 was also reported, versus $245,000 for the comparative period in fiscal 2013, equaling a reduction in loss of over 58%.

The Company further reported a significant reduction to cash used for operating activities for the 9 months ended December 31, 2013, of $207,000 versus $800,000, for the comparative period in fiscal 2013.
