SAN JOSE, Calif., March 31, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Human Pheromone Sciences, Inc. (OTC:EROX) (BULLETIN BOARD: EROX) ("HPS" or "the Company") today announced results for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2007. For the three months ended December 31, 2007, net revenue was $389,000, representing a 6% decrease from revenues of $412,000 in the prior year period, and resulted in net income of $38,000 ($.01 per share) as compared with a net income of $66,000 ($.02 per share) for the same period of 2006. For the full year, net revenues of $1,291,000, were 5% higher than revenues of $1,227,000 generated in the prior year. The net loss in the current year of $16,000 ($.00 per share) was a reduction from the $111,000 loss ($.03 per share) recorded for the full year of 2006. "In the third and fourth quarters of 2006, we had very large orders from our largest purchaser of pheromones that were not replicated in the current year quarters. As such, for the full year, revenue from pheromone sales were $207,000 (24%) lower than in 2007, while revenues attributable to licensing activities rose by $344,000 (188%) from the prior year. The growth in total revenues in the current year is attributable to the licensing activities. Lower operating expenses, coupled with the revenue growth, gave rise to the improved bottom line in the current year," a spokesperson indicated. "These cyclical pheromone purchases are unpredictable and, as such, we developed a set of strategic imperatives to grow our licensing revenues, to formulate a program to maximize revenues from our proprietary Natural Attractions(R) brand and to complete human testing on additional novel compounds that can contribute to the expansion of our business through the scientific validation of additional technologies that will enhance the value of our Company," a spokesman noted. "While we are not pleased by the financial results for the current year fourth quarter as compared with the prior year three month period, we believe that focus on these three strategic imperatives will lessen our dependence on the purchasing pattern of one large customer, and ensure balanced growth in revenue and an expanded technology and customer base, without major capital investment," the spokesman further noted. Human Pheromone Sciences, Inc. is a technology-based company, whose proof-of-concept products included prestige-priced fragrances and toiletries and environmental products sold under the REALM(R), innerREALM(R) and EROX(R) trademarks.
