Irvine, CA January 13, 2009 – Today InVitro International (OTC, Pink Sheets, IVRO) reported FY 2008 sales of $696,560 and net profits of $67,431. These results followed FY 2007 sales of $741,714 and profits of $69,273. IVRO CEO & President, W. Richard Ulmer, observed: “Although FY 2008 sales were 6% lower than those of ’07, we feel that comparison does not reflect much of our true progress in the last year. For example, we had significant yearend sales activity which carried over to make the first Quarter FY 2009 our best first Quarter since 1996. In additional significant FY 2008 activity, InVitro and our European partner (ResPharma) completed the preparation, review, and submission of our Irritection Assay System (Ocular) formal European Regulatory package at the very end of the year. And importantly, InVitro continued its increased Research & Development spending while also increasing operating margins. In summary, FY 2008 added to our level of excitement about our competitive position as well as the future of invitro testing throughout the world.”
