BCAM International, reports improved bottom line for the year ended Dec. 31, 1995.

MELVILLE, NY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 1, 1996--BCAM International, Inc. (NASDAQ: BCAM), today reported results for the fourth quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 1995.

Fourth quarter and full-year per share results improved from the comparable periods of the prior year, as costs and expenses were sharply reduced and BCAM's restructured operations are expected to have a positive impact in 1996.

For the fourth quarter ended Dec. 31, 1995, BCAM's revenue was $212,000 compared to $74,000 a year earlier. The company reduced its fourth quarter loss to $446,000 or $(0.3) per share from the previous year's fourth quarter loss of $1,297,000 or $(.09) per share. For the full year, total revenue was $927,000 vs. $1,293,000 in 1994 and losses were $1,689,000 or $(.11) vs. $2,389,000 or $(.16) in the prior year.

Total revenue for the year ended Dec. 31, 1995 declined approximately $366,000 from the prior year, and costs and expenses decreased in excess of $1 million. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to a non-core sale of computer systems in 1994. The favorable change in costs and expenses is due to a decrease in direct costs associated with the sale of the computer systems in 1994, the elimination of certain positions and other operating expenses. Additionally, in 1995, the company incurred in excess of $250,000 of one-time expenses, that are not expected to repeat in 1996.

Commenting on the results, Michael Strauss, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated, "BCAM made great strides during the past year. Not only did we improve operating results, but we also set the stage for a stronger 1996. This was accomplished by the restructuring of senior management, upgrading of our technical staff, putting in place a highly qualified Board of Directors, strengthening and broadening our technology, and installing a strong marketing organization which is aggressively pursuing several key industries."

Strauss noted that BCAM has further refined its business mission, emphasizing three areas -- Technology, Software, and Ergonomic Consulting Services, each of which have substantial growth potential, and which the company is aggressively pursuing.

Among the key initiatives during 1995, the company established collaborative R&D relationships with the State University of New York at Stony Brook and plans to establish additional relationships with other universities.

In 1995, the first commercialized product utilizing BCAM's patented Intelligent Surface Technology reached the marketplace with the introduction by Lumex Inc. of the first, "intelligent" medical recliner used primarily for kidney dialysis purposes. This is expected to feed BCAM's royalty stream in 1996. Additionally, the emphasis during 1995 on BCAM's core Ergonomic Consulting business is expected to result in repeat projects and royalties in the future.

Strauss added, "We expect revenues in 1996 to benefit from the flow of royalties derived from the introduction of BCAM's technology in several major industries," he pointed out that BCAM is at advanced stages of negotiations to license its technology to a number of major companies that produce beds, wheelchairs, recliners, hospital beds, airline seats, etc.

The company recently signed a contract with Risk Enterprise Management Limited (REM), a subsidiary of the Zurich Insurance Group, which will use BCAM's proprietary software and methodologies in its analysis and prevention of workplace compensation claims.

"Virtually all of the objectives we set at the beginning of the year have been met," said Strauss. "With our Software, Technology and Ergonomic Consulting Services, BCAM is now establishing a significant reputation in the marketplace. We are confident that this will be further reflected in the performance of the company in the years to come."

BCAM International, Inc. is one of the nation's leading companies providing proprietary biomechanics technology and software for the development of intelligent products, ergonomic product assessment and redesign, and safe workplace evaluation. -0-
