President and CEO Will Moore said, “The third quarter performance showed strong execution both in operations and commercial efforts.  We have been successful in working our way through the supply-chain issue that began impacting us during the second quarter and are now coming out of that challenge with even higher quality standards.  In addition, our glaucoma platform launch continues to be very well received, with placements ahead of schedule.  This includes our patented disposable MP3 probes and new, related disposable products and services that are approaching launch in the coming months.”  

Moore continued, “We are very excited about our activity level during the third quarter, and we look forward to reporting additional progress through the close of the year.  This should include news related to the ophthalmic industry’s largest annual trade show, which will occur in November.  We have a dynamic line-up which we believe will highlight the progress we are making with our glaucoma initiative.”

Share Repurchase Program

During the 2015 third quarter, the Company continued to execute its share repurchase program.  Approximately 120,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of $7.25 per share.
