IGI, Inc. Announces the First Quarter of 2004 Results

May 17, 2004 08:45:00 AM ET

IGI, INC. IG today reported net income of $3,000, or $.00 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, compared to net income of $36,000, or $.00 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2003. Product sales to new customers were higher during the first quarter of 2004 offset by lower royalty income from Johnson & Johnson.

"IGI continues to make progress in reducing general and administrative expenses while increasing spending in R&D for our patented Novasome(R) trans-dermal molecular delivery technology," stated Frank Gerardi, IGI's Chairman and CEO.

IGI is applying its patented Novasome(R) microencapsulation technologies to deliver pharmaceuticals, dermaceuticals, cosmetics, skin care, nutrients and other industrial products. Novasomes(R) drive large molecules deep into the skin in a moisturizing, non-irritating, controlled release lotion.
