Polydex Pharmaceuticals Provides Year End Financial Report

TORONTO, May 01, 2018 -- Polydex Pharmaceuticals Limited (OTC Pink:POLXF) (the “Company”) reports financial results for its fiscal year ended January 31, 2018. All figures are reported in U.S. dollars.

Gross margins have been maintained and, combined with management efforts; a solid financial position has resulted.  EBITDA remains strong at $765,742, with a working capital ratio of 3.15. Management is also hopeful that the registration of a new product could result in $250,000 of additional supply agreement fees in fiscal 2019 or 2020.

“We have made significant investments into production again this year,” said company President and CEO George Usher. “Another $375,000.00 dedicated to upgraded equipment has simultaneously resulted in increased production capability and reduced utilities costs. We are also in the fortunate position of beginning this fiscal year with $1.2 million in cash and investments on hand, and accounts receivable of a further $1.5 million.  This will allow us to continue to prudently invest in more efficient equipment that will lead to either further savings or increased control the rising cost of utilities.”
