Irvine, CA February 2, 2005 – InVitro International (OTC, Pink Sheets, IVRO) today reported a 4% annual sales gain (’04 vs.’03) to $596,123, and a net loss of $34,614 compared to profit of $11,014 in ’03. IVRO President, W. Richard Ulmer said: “We are disappointed that InVitro could not generate revenue gains large enough to cover the added costs associated with our physical relocation last year. This was a very difficult year for InVitro, and it’s people. However, a bright spot was our partnership with INT.E.G.RA, and it’s parent organization, Res Pharma, in Europe. As always, we will work toward better company results in the upcoming year.
