WHEAT RIDGE, Colo., Feb. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Lifeloc Technologies, Inc. (OTC: LCTC), a global leader in the development and manufacturing of breath alcohol testing devices, has announced financial results for the 2021 fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

2021 Financial Highlights

Lifeloc Technologies posted annual net revenue of $7.054 million resulting in 2021 after tax profit of $676 thousand, or net income of $0.27 per diluted share.  These results compare to net revenue of $6.357 million for 2020, with net loss of $922 thousand, or $(0.38) per diluted share.  The 2021 results included a one-time gain of $936 thousand from the forgiveness of both the 2020 and 2021 Paycheck Protection Program loans through the SBA.  Revenues for 2021 grew by 11% over 2020 sales, representing a partial recovery to pre-pandemic sales levels.

Lifeloc took advantage of continued low interest rates to secure a stable and low interest rate on our only debt, refinancing our building mortgage on September 30, 2021, replacing the prior 4.00% fixed rate (until October 2024) mortgage with a 2.95% mortgage fixed until September 2031.  This refinancing was immediately cash flow positive, with all refinance costs to be recovered through interest savings by early 2023, while eliminating the significant 2024 interest rate change risk from the prior mortgage.

New platform LX9 and LT7 devices produced sales growth of 65% in 2021 versus 2020.  The features and performance of the new L-series products have driven penetration by meeting previously unaddressable market needs, such as wider temperature ranges and fast customization that incorporates local languages.  We expect that most L-series sales will be incremental to FC-series devices rather than displacing FC sales.  The L-series devices are meeting the requirements of the most modern registration standards, such as SAI's (Standards Australia International) latest AS 3547:2019 standards for Breath Alcohol Detectors.

We continue to invest in the significant growth opportunities of alcohol monitoring and drug detection.  The monitoring opportunity will be addressed primarily through the redesigned Real-Time Alcohol Detection and Reporting (R.A.D.A.R.®) device.  Field testing of the redesigned R.A.D.A.R. 200 devices and integration with the monitoring system has been extensive and has required additional modifications before final release.  The design has now been completed with several devices field tested by key customers and now has been released to sales.  Several upgrades have been made to the reporting system including migration to the cloud for higher reliability and an entirely new enrollment app to automate the enrollment process.

Our most important goal remains the convergence of the global need for rapid detection of drugs of abuse with Lifeloc's capability of building easy-to-use portable testing equipment.  We intend to use the SpinDx™ technology platform, sometimes referred to as "Lab on a Disk", to develop a series of devices and tests that could be used at roadside, emergency rooms and in workplace testing to get a rapid and quantitative measure for a panel of drugs of abuse.  The first test we intend to offer is the SpinDx device with disks for delta-9-THC detection from an oral fluid sample collected from a test subject.  Then we intend to offer a device based on our recently updated LX9 breathalyzer to collect a sample for analysis from breath, which coupled with the SpinDx device will be our marijuana breathalyzer system.  We have improved the detection sensitivity for delta-9-THC as well as the robustness of the device.  We are continuing to work on developing this system into a device that can be used for roadside testing, as well as other contexts requiring fast response.  Additional personnel and new equipment resources have been committed to finalizing the development of the first products of the SpinDx technology platform.

"We saw some sales recovery in 2021 and we expect to see more in 2022, with many customers having deferred new equipment purchases during the pandemic," commented Dr. Wayne Willkomm, President and CEO.  "However, we are not just relying on pent up demand for sales growth, but instead our strong pipeline of recent and upcoming product releases will be the big driver.  The Easycal® calibration station and the premium L-series devices are finding broad acceptance and the R.A.D.A.R. 200 devices have been released to sales.  Revenue from these will all provide the continued funding to push the SpinDx product platform across the finish line to commercialization.   We will see research and development expenses continue to rise in this final push, prioritizing substantial value creation over short-term profitability.  We are hopeful that the SpinDx platform will begin making a revenue contribution by late 2022."
