KINDERHOOK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / September 15, 2020 / American Bio Medica Corporation (OTC PINK:ABMC) today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Chief Executive Officer Melissa A. Waterhouse stated, "We are pleased to report increased sales when comparing 2020 to 2019 (from both a quarter over quarter and year over year perspective) as a result of our distribution of the Covid-19 antibody test. There are a number of sales opportunities for the Covid-19 test in the pipeline and marketing applications yet to come for the product. In the meantime, it has been well received by customers. From an operational perspective, selling and marketing expense increased (due to commissions paid on sales of the rapid Covid-19 test), however, all other expenses decreased in the second quarter of 2020 even with increased sales. This allowed us to achieve operating income in the second quarter of 2020."

Waterhouse continued, "As the market for Covid-19 testing is developing, we are reviewing alternative products to offer our customers in addition to the antibody tests and looking for avenues to capitalize on our manufacturing operations. As indicated in our last announcement, we are seeing some rebound in the drug testing markets as businesses and treatment programs re-open, but we are still uncertain if or how long this rebound will continue as the pandemic progresses."

Financial Highlights

  • Net sales in the second quarter of 2020 were $1,758,000, compared to net sales of $958,000 in the second quarter of 2019; an increase of $800,000, or 83.5%. Net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $2,486,000, compared to $1,880,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2019; an increase of $606,000, or 32.2%.
  • Operating income was $16,000 in the second quarter of 2020, compared to an operating loss of $155,000 in the second quarter of 2019. Operating loss was $255,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to an operating loss of $329,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2019.
