STAAR Surgical Generates $464,000 in Cash from Operations During Third Quarter
Date:11/2/2009

team will be asking surgeons to compare their results with the nanoFLEX IOL to their current IOL of choice in ten patients by using standard visual measuring tools. Historically, STAAR had up to 10% domestic market share for IOLs and with a superior product we want to begin moving from our current 3% share level back to the position we earned in the past. Each market share point represents approximately $6 million sales, so if we are successful at moving toward our goal, we will be adding high margin revenue from increased IOL sales," added Mr. Caldwell.

Financial Performance for the Third Quarter Ended October 2, 2009

Gross profit for the third quarter was $9.8 million compared with $10.5 million in the comparable quarter of 2008, which was 54.3% and 57.7% of net sales in respective periods. The decline in gross profit and gross profit margin is primarily due to lower average selling prices in Japan due to intense price competition. Gross profit margin also reflects the negative impact of a 43% increase in sales of preloaded IOLs to international distributors, which carry low profit margins and lower ASPs on IOLs in Germany and Japan due to significant price competition. Factors that had a favorable effect on gross profit margin were increased sales of toric ICLs, favorable mix of ICLs and IOLs versus other products, and higher ASPs on ICLs and IOLs in the US. Gross profit for the first nine months of 2009 was $30.8 million, or 55.6% of net sales, compared with $29.7 million, or 52.4% of net sales in the prior year period. Gross profit for the first nine months of 2008 was negatively impacted by a $1.5 million purchase accounting charge associated with the acquisition of STAAR Japan.

Continued improvement in the management of operating expenses during the third quarter resulted in an approximate $0.9 million or 7.4% reduction from the year ago period. General and administrative expenses were unchanged compar
