Nabi Biopharmaceuticals Announces Third Quarter 2007 Financial Results and Positive Vote from November 8, 2007 Special Stockholde...(abi-HB products respectively compared to...),Health

Date:11/8/2007

abi-HB products, respectively, compared to $19.5 million in the third quarter of 2006. Current period revenues also reflect a $3.3 million charge related to an unfavorable court ruling that vacated a portion of the $4.5 million awarded to us on February 9, 2007 in an arbitration relating to a contract manufacturing agreement with Inhibitex, Inc. We will vigorously challenge this ruling on appeal. Excluding this charge, segment revenues increased by $3.9 million, or 20%, from the third quarter of 2006.

We also recorded a $2.7 million charge in the current quarter in connection with the termination of future obligations associated with the development of ATG-Fresenius. Nabi Biologics had an operating loss of $6.4 million for the three months ended September 29, 2007 compared to an operating loss of $2.7 million for the comparable prior year period.
