IRIDEX Reports First Quarter 2010 Financial Results

First quarter GAAP Earnings per Share increases 150%

Paid off Bank Debt

IRIDEX Corporation (Nasdaq: IRIX) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended April 3, 2010.

For the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a net profit of $0.5 million or $0.05 per diluted share compared to $0.2 million or $0.02 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2009 an increase of 150%. Revenues increased to $10.8 million from $10.7 million.

The results for the first quarter of 2010 include acquisition related costs of $0.1 million resulting from the recent acquisition of substantially all of the assets of RetinaLabs, Inc., which were reported as a component of general and administrative expense. These costs equate to approximately $(0.01) per diluted share for the quarter.

“I am very pleased with our first quarter results. We have generated strong earnings in a typically seasonally weaker quarter, we have paid off our obligation to the bank and have no debt outstanding, and subsequent to the quarter end we closed the acquisition of RetinaLabs” stated Mr. Theodore A. Boutacoff, President and CEO. “We continue to see the benefits of creating a very efficient and scalable business.”

“We have recorded our fifth consecutive quarter of profitability. Our gross margins improved to 48.6% and during the quarter we saw a strong order rate for ophthalmology equipment and signs of a recovery in demand for our ophthalmology consumable products.”

“Looking forward, we are excited about the increased opportunity the RetinaLabs products bring to the Company. The majority of their products are consumables with strong gross margins which will be sold through our existing sales channels, and we expect that sales of these products will add to our profitability. The RetinaLabs acquisition represents a step in the execution of our stated growth strategy, which is a combination of organic initiatives and accretive acquisitions.”
