ALLEN, Texas, May 10, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Atrion Corporation (Nasdaq: ATRI) today announced diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2017 were $5.36 as compared to $3.74 in the first quarter of 2016. Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 were $38.5 million compared with $36.2 million in the same period in 2016. Net income in the current-year quarter totaled $10.0 million compared to $6.9 million in last year’s first quarter.
Commenting on the Company’s results for the first quarter of 2017 compared to the same period last year, David A. Battat, President & CEO, said, “Sales were up 6%, with Ophthalmology and Fluid Delivery showing growth and aided by relatively stable foreign exchange rates. With improved scale in manufacturing, operating income increased by 8%." Mr. Battat added, “Diluted earnings per share were up 43% from last year's $3.74, reflecting, in part, a tax benefit related to employee stock compensation that lowered our tax rate to 13% compared to 32% in the first quarter of 2016. Excluding the tax benefit, diluted EPS for the quarter increased 11%, generally in line with the increase in our operating income.” Mr. Battat concluded, “Cash and short and long term investments increased by $2.0 million to a total of $56.0 million as of March 31, 2017.”
Atrion Corporation develops and manufactures products primarily for medical applications. The Company’s website is www.atrioncorp.com.
