Vasomedical Announces Strong Revenue Growth for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012

WESTBURY, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Vasomedical, Inc. (“Vasomedical”) (OTC: VASO.PK), a diversified medical technology company specializing in the design, manufacture and sale of medical devices and in the domestic sale of diagnostic imaging products, today reported its operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

The Company recorded revenue of $6.04 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2012, compared to revenue of $4.85 million for same period in 2011, an increase of 25%. The increase is primarily due to an increase of $925,000 in EECP® and other medical equipment sales, or 175%, of which $578,000 was contributed by our recent acquisitions in China. Commission revenue at our wholly-owned subsidiary Vaso Diagnostics, Inc., d/b/a VasoHealthcare, also grew by $317,000, or 8%, for the three month period ended March 31, 2012. We continue to record substantial amounts of deferred revenues, which will be recognized once the underlying equipment or service is accepted or performed. As of March 31, 2012, total deferred revenues were approximately $14.78 million, a decrease of $0.45 million from December 31, 2011. At March 31, 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $13.3 million.

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $1.34 million, compared to a net loss of $0.47 million for the same period in 2011. The increase in net loss was due to higher selling, general and administrative costs associated mainly with additional sales and marketing investments at our Vaso Diagnostics subsidiary, the addition of the China operations, and increased corporate expenses. Loss attributable to common stockholders was $1.34 million or $0.01 per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to a net loss of $0.59 million or $0.01 per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

“We are excited about the revenue growth in both segments but especially with the growth in our equipment segment,” commented Dr. Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “We anticipate that our equipment segment will continue to grow and contribute significantly to our future success,” Dr. Ma continued. “We will continue to seek other opportunities to expand our equipment segment to further diversify our business and to enhance shareholder value.”

Vasomedical Announces Record Operating Income of $5.2 Million and 169% Increase in Revenue for the Seven Months Ended December 31, 2011

WESTBURY, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Vasomedical, Inc. (“Vasomedical”) (OTC: VASO.PK), a diversified medical technology company specializing in the manufacture and sale of medical devices and in the domestic sale of diagnostic imaging products, today announces its operating results for the seven months ended December 31, 2011. These results include the operation of its Chinese subsidiaries for the four months since their acquisition in September, 2011. The results for the seven month period are based on the change in 2011 of our fiscal year end from May 31 to December 31.

The Company recorded revenue of $23.49 million for the seven month period ended December 31, 2011, compared to revenue of $8.74 million for same period in 2010, an increase of 169%. The increase is primarily due to an increase in commission revenue at our wholly-owned subsidiary Vaso Diagnostics, Inc., d/b/a VasoHealthcare, as its agreement with GE Healthcare, which began mid-year 2010, was in full operation in 2011. We continue to record substantial amounts of deferred revenues, which will be recognized once the underlying equipment or service is accepted or performed. As of December 31, 2011, total deferred revenues were approximately $15.23 million, an increase of $3.31 million from May 31, 2011. As of March 29, 2012, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of approximately $13.1 million.

Net income for the seven months ended December 31, 2011 was $5.11 million, compared to a net loss of $2.41 million for the same period in 2010. Income attributable to common stockholders was $3.89 million or $0.03 per common share for the seven months ended December 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of $2.60 million or ($0.02) per common share for the seven months ended December 31, 2010. The net income in 2011 and net loss in 2010 applicable to common stockholders were after reduction for preferred stock dividends of $1.22 million and $191,000 for the seven months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These dividends for preferred stock, all of which were converted to shares of common stock during the reporting period, are noncash items resulting principally from the value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature in the preferred stock.

“I would like to thank each and every one of our highly professional employees, particularly our VasoHealthcare team, for their contribution to the great performance during such uncertain times in healthcare,” commented Dr. Jun Ma, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “The continued profitability in this reporting period has placed Vasomedical in a stronger financial position, allowing the Company to further implement its growth strategies, globally and domestically,” Dr. Ma continued. “We believe a diversified medtech company is certainly better positioned to provide stability in the business of delivering quality healthcare products to the public, and at the same time provide consistent growth and return on investment for our shareholders.”

Vasomedical Recorded Record Net Income of $2.47 Million for the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2012

WESTBURY, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Vasomedical, Inc. (“Vasomedical”) (OTC: VASO.PK), a leader in the manufacture and sale of devices for the non-invasive treatment and management of cardiovascular diseases and a leader in the sale of diagnostic imaging products, today reported financial results for the quarter ended November 30, 2011. These results include the operations of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Vaso Diagnostics, Inc., d/b/a VasoHealthcare, our sales representative subsidiary which represents GE Healthcare (“GEHC”) for the sale of select diagnostic imaging products on an exclusive basis to specific market segments in the 48 contiguous states of the United States and Washington, DC, and the recently acquired Chinese companies.

The Company recorded revenue of $9.95 million and $14.28 million for the three and six month periods ended November 30, 2011, respectively, compared to revenue of $3.80 million and $5.08 million for same periods a year ago, an increase of 161.9% and 181.3% for the three and six month periods, respectively . The increase is primarily due to an increase in commission revenue at VasoHealthcare, as the agreement with GE Healthcare, which began mid-year 2010, was in full operation in 2011 and the Company earned higher commission rates in 2011 as a result of achieving certain performance targets. Due to the nature of our commission structure under the agreement with GEHC, we earn progressively higher commission rates as calendar year targets are met. As we achieve these targets the higher commission rates are retroactive to the beginning of the calendar year, and therefore we anticipate earning and recognizing greater revenue in the fourth quarter of the calendar year. We continue to record substantial amounts of deferred revenues, which will be recognized once the underlying equipment or service is accepted or performed. As of November 30, 2011, total deferred revenues were approximately $14.7 million, an increase of $2.6 million and $2.8 million from August 31, 2011 and May 31, 2011, respectively.

Net income for the quarter and six months ended November 30, 2011 was $2.47 million and $816,000, respectively, compared to a net loss of $1.13 million and $3.70 million for the same periods in the prior year. The significant change from net loss to net income is attributable to the increase in commission revenue, as discussed above, offset by the related increase in commission expense. Income attributable to common stockholders was $1.33 million or $0.01 per common share for the three months ended November 30, 2011, compared to a net loss of $1.26 million or ($0.01) per common share for the three months ended November 30, 2010. The significant change from net loss to net income is attributable to the increase in commission revenue, as discussed above, offset by the related increase in commission expense. For the six months ended November 30, 2011 net loss attributable to common stockholders was $406,000 or $0.0 per share compared to a net loss applicable to common stockholders of $3.85 million or ($0.03) per share for the same period in the prior year. The net loss applicable to common stockholders is after reduction for preferred stock dividends of $1.14 million and $125,000 for the three months ended November 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $1.22 million and $152,000 for the six months ended November 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These preferred stock dividends are noncash items resulting principally from the value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature in the preferred stock.

“We are very excited by achieving significant record profitability during this reporting period and are gratified with the significant revenue growth from our VasoHealthcare operations,” commented Dr. Jun Ma, Chief Executive Officer and President of Vasomedical. “This result, combined with our recent acquisition of Life Enhancement Technology Ltd. and BIOX Instruments Co. Ltd., gives us a stronger position in the marketplace, enhanced product offerings and positions us to achieve our global vision while enhancing our growth potential,” said Dr. Ma.

Vasomedical Reports Financial Results for the Quarter Ended August 31, 2011

Company Reports 239% Revenue Growth over Same Quarter in Prior Year

WESTBURY, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Vasomedical, Inc. (“Vasomedical”) (OTC: VASO.PK), a leader in the manufacture and sale of devices for the non-invasive treatment and management of cardiovascular diseases and a leader in the sale of diagnostic imaging products, today reported financial results for the three months ended August 31, 2011. These results include the operations of its wholly-owned subsidiary Vaso Diagnostics, Inc., d/b/a VasoHealthcare, our sales representative subsidiary which represents GE Healthcare (“GEHC”) for the sale of select diagnostic imaging products on an exclusive basis to specific market segments in the 48 contiguous states of the United States and Washington, DC.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2012, which ended August 31, 2011, the Company had revenue of approximately $4.33 million, compared to revenue of $1.28 million for the quarter ended August 31, 2010, an increase of $3.05 million, or 239%. The increase is principally due to an increase in commission revenue at VasoHealthcare, as the agreement with GE Healthcare is now in full operation and had only begun in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $1.74 million for the three months ended August 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of $2.60 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The significant decrease in the net loss is attributable to the increase in commission revenue offset by the related increase in commission expense. Due to the nature of our commission structure under the agreement with GEHC, we earn progressively higher commission rates as calendar year targets are met. As we achieve these targets the higher commission rates are retroactive to the beginning of the calendar year, and therefore we anticipate earning and recognizing greater revenue in the fourth quarter of the calendar year. We continue to record substantial amounts of deferred revenues, which will be recognized once the underlying equipment or service is accepted or performed. As of August 31, 2011, total deferred revenues were approximately $12.1 million, an increase of $200 thousand from $11.9 million at May 31, 2011.

Cash used in operating activities for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 improved by $403 thousand, to $1.84 million, compared to cash used in operating activities of $2.24 million for the same period in the prior year. As noted above, our commission rates under the agreement with GEHC are progressively higher as calendar year targets are met, therefore, we anticipate significantly higher commission billings and recognized revenue in the fourth quarter of the calendar year, as well as receiving payment for such billings in subsequent periods. Our financial position continues to be strong with more than $6.2 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand at August 31, 2011.

“We are excited that we have achieved significant revenue growth from our VasoHealthcare operations and made gains in our operating cash flows,” commented Dr. Jun Ma, Chief Executive Officer and President of Vasomedical. “The performance of VasoHealthcare has generated a significant backlog of deferred revenue to be recognized in ensuing quarters as well as a tremendous improvement in our operating cash flow.”

“Through the vertical integration and expansion of our product lines resulting from our recently announced acquisitions of Life Enhancement Technology Ltd. and BIOX Instruments Co. Ltd., Vasomedical is better positioned in the marketplace to realize our global vision while enhancing our growth and profitability potential,” said Dr. Ma.
