Scientific Industries Reports Results for Quarter

BOHEMIA, N.Y., Nov. 14, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Scientific Industries Inc. (OTCBB: SCND) -- For the three months ended September 30, 2014, the Company reported a net loss of $161,300 ($.11 loss per basic share) on net sales of $1,662,100, compared to net income of $2,100 ($.00 earnings per basic share) on net sales of $1,436,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

The loss was primarily derived from its Torbal division of the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations which had lower than expected sales of its brand products since the acquisition in February 2014 and acquisition-related amortization costs, and decreased sales to overseas customers of Genie brand products.

Ms. Helena R. Santos, President and Chief Executive Officer, remarked she is hopeful for improved results for the remainder of the year due to an expected increase in orders for catalyst research instruments to increase including its current backlog of $439,500, all of which is expected to be shipped by the end of the current fiscal year.
