ABMC Chief Executive Officer Stan Cipkowski stated, "Sales growth in our core markets continues to be elusive, not only for ABMC but for our entire industry. This continues to be for the same reasons that have plagued us for the past several years, high unemployment and the uncertain worldwide economic outlook. With the introduction of two new products, pending FDA clearance, we expect to see sales and earnings growth in new and expanded markets in the near future."

Cipkowski continued, "Gross margins have returned to appropriate historical levels, and though we have continued to cut operating expenses, costs related to regulatory clearance for the new products as well as costs associated with additional funding caused increased G&A expenses. Diversification continues to be our primary objective in 2013."
