ImmunoPrecise Antibodies reports Q3 2017 financial results - revenues up 70% for the first nine months of fiscal 2017


News provided by

ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd.

VICTORIA, March 30, 2017 /CNW/ - IMMUNOPRECISE ANTIBODIES (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: IPA)(OTC PINK: IPATF), today reports its financial results for the third quarter ended January 31, 2017 and provides a business update. The financial statements and related management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") can be viewed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

ImmunoPrecise Antibodies successfully executed its initial public offering by way of a reverse takeover transaction (the "RTO") with Tanqueray Exploration Ltd. and its securities began trading on December 29, 2016 on the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Company's focus is to aggressively expand its share of the USD$2.6 billion research and development antibody market, delivering its products and services to academic, diagnostic, biotechnology and pharmaceutical customers globally. As a result of the RTO and subsequent financings, as of January 31, 2017 the Company had $3,373,440 in working capital to finance its growth initiatives.

For the three months ended January 31, 2017 the Company recorded revenue of $510,835, an increase of 24% compared to $413,021 for the three months ended January 31, 2016. For the nine months ended January 31, 2017, the Company recorded revenue of $2,036,067 representing an increase of 70% over the $1,200,256 recorded during the nine months ended January 31, 2016. With the new lab facility coming on line the Company's capacity for growth has increased.

For the nine months ended January 31, 2017 the Company incurred an operating loss of $297,774 compared to a loss of $205,304 for the same period during the previous year. Notwithstanding a higher level of sales, the operating loss was primarily due to the costs related to the RTO and because the Company began making foundational growth-enabling investments in operational efficiency and measures to improve gross margins, new information systems, internet marketing capabilities and a new website, and an expansion of its laboratory facilities. These investments will largely be completed within the next quarter and will ensure that the Company can maximize its return on any growth in revenue.

The Financial Statements of the Company for the nine months ended January 31, 2017 reflect a loss of $4,187,158 due to a listing expense associated with the RTO. The listing expense is a one-time accounting entry and is not reflective of ongoing operations of IPA. As the RTO was completed during the nine months ended January 31, 2017, the recording of the listing expense resulted in an accounting loss for the period.

To achieve the best results from its investments the Company added key personnel subsequent to the quarter ended January 31, 2017. On March 9, 2017 the Company announced that Dr. David Kroeger joined its scientific team. Further, the Company announced that Mr. David Orton joined the Company's executive leadership team as Chief Operating Officer on March 29, 2017, and on April 3, 2017 Ms. Lauren Smith will join the team as Vice-President responsible for Marketing and Sales.  They are seasoned business leaders who will together bring the Company proven experience in building and leading rapidly growing organizations, as well success in marketing and sales within the life sciences sector. With the Company's CEO Mr. Tom D'Orazio, these strong additions to the Company's executive leadership team will enable the existing business to be sustained and grown, while providing the executive team with sufficient bench strength to successfully identify, pursue, and execute strategic partnerships and acquisitions.
