MedX Health Corp. Announces First Quarter 2018 Results
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, MedX Health Corp. (“MedX” or the “Company”) (MDX.V) announced its results for the three months ended March 31, 2018, which are also available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
The Company reported revenue of $226,122 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared with revenue of $239,810 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Revenues from SIAscopy of $39,236 were 18% higher than the 2017 three-month period, while sales from the Company’s therapeutic laser line of $186,886 were lower than in the prior year. The Company reported a loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $672,154 or $0.01 per share compared with a loss of $347,859, or $0.00 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
“Our revenue for the first quarter was lower than we had been anticipating, as the shipment of a $120,000 order that we received mid-quarter ended up being shipped just after quarter end due to delays by our customer,” noted Rob von der Porten, CEO of MedX. “We are adding to our marketing efforts to build the laser sales and preparing for the launch of our new telemedicine platform that will be ready for marketing this summer. Through the collaborations with our well respected Advisory board members, such as U.S. based Dr. Dan Siegel and UK based Dr. Joe Walls and Dr. Per Hall, we are increasingly encouraged that our SIAscopy technology integrated into a telemedicine platform will move the company into the forefront of remote scanning and analysis of potentially dangerous moles and lesions. The investment in our technology and business development efforts have increased costs for the quarter, however non-recurring expenses represent approximately half of the increase in the loss for the quarter over last year.”
