“The $3.4 million increase in revenue resulted from a $3.8 million, or approximately 20%, increase in revenue in our Optics segment, offset by a $0.4 million or 2% decrease in revenue in our Innovation and Development segment. Our Innovation and Development segment was renamed to emphasize the exciting new technology that is being developed in this segment’s business unit, RMD, particularly in the fields of material science, radiation detection, digital imaging technology, magnetic imaging, laser optics and photonics. The Innovation and Development segment’s 2% decrease in revenue largely resulted from a reduction of NIH funding and a delay in our commercial revenue orders.

 

“Our 20% revenue increase in the Optics segment was the result of the efforts across all of our optics businesses, as well as our new marketing team. While not overly impactful for 2018, marketing’s influence on our recently improved website greatly facilitates our customers’ shopping experiences. Our upcoming presence at the Photonics West trade show will showcase the unified Dynasil marketing effort.

 

“Our increased operating expenses in the Optics segment are reflective of marketing costs and an investment in both personnel and process development for our new business initiatives in the IR coatings and assembly areas. These investments are expected to begin to bear fruit in 2019 and we anticipate continued growth in this segment in the future. We are very optimistic about these initiatives which we specifically identified as strategic growth initiatives in 2017 and actively pursued during fiscal 2018.

 

“As announced last July, Xcede Technologies, Inc., our majority-owned subsidiary, has halted clinical trial preparations and curtailed its operations in response to a termination notice received from Cook Biotech, Inc.,” added Mr. Sulick. “One of our innovation teams at RMD is investigating funding for continued development of the Xcede Patch.”
