Selling, general and administration expenses of $5,416,000 in the fourth quarter increased 23.4% as compared with last year due to non-recurring costs, the bulk of which relate to the wind-down of the Company's U.S. operations in 2000.

Income from operations before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of $1,139,000 for the fourth quarter compares with $534,000 in the prior year.

Net research and development expenditures totaled $712,000 for the current quarter as compared to $575,000 incurred in 1999.

Depreciation and amortization of $2,256,000 during the fourth quarter compares with $1,990,000 for 1999.

Canadian Federal and Provincial governments have announced their intention to reduce corporate income tax rates, the effect of which will be to lower tax rates applicable to all of the Company's Canadian operations to 31% over the next six years. As a result of this change, a $2,444,000 charge was recorded in the fourth quarter to reflect the reduced value of the Company's future income tax assets.

Fourth quarter revenues from the Company's radiopharmaceutical line of $1,632,000 decreased 29.8% as compared to the same period last year due mainly to lower than anticipated lyophilized ly·oph·i·lize

This situation is expected to improve significantly once the Company's own lyophilization capacity comes on line later this year.

A segment EBITDA loss of $429,000 was incurred in the quarter, as compared with earnings of $665,000 last year, the reduction being largely caused by lower revenues, and increased spending in support of product development and launches.

In December 2000, the Company announced the first clinical uses of its BrachySeed(TM) implant implant /im·plant/ (im-plant´) to insert or to graft (tissue, or inert or radioactive material) into intact tissues or a body cavity.  for the treatment of prostate cancer prostate cancer, cancer originating in the prostate gland.

Fourth quarter manufacturing revenues of $6,560,000 tracked 10.1% ahead of 1999 due mainly to new contract manufacturing volumes.

Segment EBITDA of $156,000 for the fourth quarter compares with a loss of $189,000 incurred in the corresponding quarter last year. On a full year basis an EBITDA loss of $291,000 was incurred, representing an improvement of $990,000 year over year.
