Due to our limited financial reserves, managing cash continues to be a priority, as well as working to grow the business and secure new deals in a timely manner. While all of our efforts to date have allowed us to maintain cash on hand at about the same level as at the end of the third quarter of 2008, it is important that we secure additional financing for the Company’s future. We believe the transaction contemplated by the recently signed term sheet with Signet Healthcare Partners, regarding our Series G Preferred Stock financing. will give us additional time to try to secure financing or explore other strategic alternatives by providing Bioject with additional capital and removing a significant amount of debt,” said Mr. Makar.

Financial Results
For the third quarter, the Company reported revenue of $1.6 million, an increase of 108% compared to $749,000 for the third quarter last year.

The Company generated $364,000 in EBITDA compared to negative EBITDA of $1.0 million in the third quarter last year.
Scott Grisanti, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "MedClean is making progress in its effort to increase awareness and further penetration of its flagship MedClean® Series On-Demand system for cost-effective and environmentally conscious onsite treatment and disposal of regulated medical waste and HIPAA-compliant destruction of confidential documents. This progress is evident by the year-over-year and sequential growth in our revenue. In addition, our efforts to reduce expenses have enabled the Company to generate cash in the quarter. I wish to thank the entire MedClean team for its loyalty and dedication. While we are encouraged with the progress we have made, it is clear the Company requires additional capital to accelerate its growth and extend the MedClean product family to serve small quantity medical waste generators. Management and the board continue to explore strategic opportunities to expand the company's footprint while pursuing additional capital to further advance its business model."
For the first nine months of 2009, the Company generated revenue of $2.3 million, an increase of 19% compared to the $2.0 million for the first nine months of 2008 and $2.1 million for all of 2008. Gross profit year-to-date was $1.2 million, or 51% profit margin, compared to gross profit of $663,000, or 34% profit margin for the first nine months last year. Total operating expenses year-to-date were $4.5 million, up 41% compared to $3.2 million in the first nine months of last year. The Company reported a $3.3 million operating loss, compared to a loss from operations of $2.5 million last year. Net loss for the first nine months of 2009 was $4.2 million, or $0.01 loss per share (based on 561,542,968 million shares outstanding), compared to a net loss of $4.4 million, or $0.03 loss per share (based on 127,553,445 shares outstanding), for the first nine months last year.
The Company provides equity based payments to officers, employees and consultants as compensation. The net loss of $4.2 million was impacted by non-cash equity based compensation recorded as a charge against operations of $3.3 million. Without the charge, our loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 would have been $899,000 compared to a $2.7 million loss for the same period last year after comparative adjustments. This represents an overall operating improvement of $1.8 million or 66%.
Management Restructuring
Subsequent to the quarter, and effective November 10, 2009, the Company announced a restructuring of its senior management team. David J. Laky will be promoted to President and Chief Executive Officer. Previously, Mr. Laky was the Company's Senior Vice President of Client Services and Technology. Mr. Laky joined MedClean from eResearchTechnology, Inc. where he was General Manager and Vice President of eClinical Group.
Simultaneously, Scott Grisanti will transition from President and CEO to Chairman of the Board of Directors. Joseph Esposito, MedClean's current Chairman, will remain on the board as a director and continue to serve as a consultant to the Company.
Mr. Grisanti continued, "We believe this planned succession will best enable MedClean to achieve its near-term and long-term goals. Dave has demonstrated the leadership qualities and the industry expertise necessary to drive MedClean's growth. His broad based experience managing technology and services functions with full profit and loss responsibility in larger organizations will prove invaluable as we focus on accelerating sales, generating profits, and increasing cash flow."

November 25 - Biomagnetics to Hold Investor Conference Call
Biomagnetics Diagnostics Corp. (OTC: BMGP), a developer of revolutionary diagnostic systems and technology for HIV, hepatitis, tuberculosis, and malaria detection, announced that the Company will hold an investor conference call to discuss upcoming business opportunities and its agreement with one of the world’s premiere research laboratories. The call, which will be open to all investors, will be held on Wednesday, December 2nd at 4:30 EST. Interested parties should contact the Company at info@biomagneticsbmgp.com for invite details.
“It is a very exciting time for all of us at Biomagnetics and its shareholders. For the past few quarters we have been working on several major growth initiatives that are now coming to fruition,” commented Clayton Hardman, CEO of Biomagnetics Diagnostics. “Please join us next week as we discuss the pending introduction of our revolutionary technologies for malaria, tuberculosis, HIV and other pathogen and disease diagnosis and as we profile our new and evolving relationship with one of the world’s premiere research institutions. We view our current business opportunities as being highly significant.”
According to the World Health Organization, some 3.2 billion people, or about half the world's population is at risk of malaria transmission in 107 countries and territories worldwide. While there are between 350 million and 500 million new cases of malaria each year, there are very few reliable and field deployable diagnostic tools available. In the case of malaria, early detection substantially improves treatability and survivability. Field deployable Integrated Optical Biosensor System (IBOS), such as those Biomagnetics Diagnostics is planning to soon introduce hold the promise to significantly speed the diagnostic testing process and to meaningfully lower costs and improve lives.
