DOYLESTOWN, Pennsylvania, May 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ProPhase Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: PRPH, www.ProPhaseLabs.com) today announced net sales of $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to net sales of $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The Company incurred a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 of $809,000, or ($0.07) per share, compared to a net loss of $1.0 million or ($0.09) per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The financial results for the first quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019 principally reflect the net effect of a decrease in net sales of $430,000 due to a decrease in demand of third party customer orders, offset by (i) a decrease in administrative costs of $206,000 due principally to a decrease in professional fees, (ii) a decrease in sales and marketing expenses of $96,000 as a consequence of a reduction in marketing initiatives and (iii) a decrease in research and development expenditures of $35,000.

In addition on May 4, 2020, the Company resolved the final pending claim against the Company’s escrow account with Mylan and as a result the remaining funds, totaling $4.8 million, were released from the escrow account to the Company on May 7, 2020.
