IDAHO FALLS, Idaho, April 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- International Isotopes Inc. (OTCQB: INIS) (the "Company") announces its financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

The following is a summary of significant accomplishments of the Company in 2022:

Achieved $11.2 million in total revenues in 2022, a 16% increase compared to 2021. 2022 total revenue was the largest single year in company history.
Net income was approximately $300,000 in 2022 compared to a net loss of about $900,000 in 2021.
Increased sales in the Radiochemical segment by 41% in 2022 through increases in sales of our FDA approved generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product.
Completed the sale of certain unused assets for $4.0 million in cash, resulting in a net gain of $1.8 million.
Developed several new products for our Nuclear Medicine products segment and expanded our product line into Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging standards.

Sales of radiochemical products accounted for approximately 54% of our total sales in 2022 as compared to 44% in 2021. Sales in this segment increased by approximately 41% in 2022 compared to 2021. The increase is primarily the result of sales of our new generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product which was launched in March 2020. We expect sales of this product to continue to trend upward in the coming year.

Sales in the nuclear medicine standards segment accounted for approximately 36% and 40%, of our total revenue in 2022 and 2021, respectively. Sales in this segment decreased slightly, approximately 1%, in 2022, as compared to 2021, due to the discontinuance of our Radiological Services business. Our core RadQual division within this segment grew revenues in 2022 over 2021.

Cobalt products sales accounted for approximately 10% of our total sales revenue in 2022 and approximately 14% in 2021. Sales in this segment decreased by approximately 15%, in 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to timing of receipt of additional cobalt material from the Department of Energy (DOE) in 2022, delays in customer contracts for Cobalt Sealed Source Manufacturing, and delays due to maintenance and repairs to our manufacturing equipment.

Cost of revenues for 2022 increased approximately 25% compared to 2021 and gross profit percentage decreased to 56% for 2022, from 59% in 2021. The cost of raw materials used in our radiochemical products and nuclear medicine standards represented the bulk of direct cost increases for 2022. Our total operating costs and expenses for 2022 increased approximately 17% compared to 2021 primarily due to increases in salaries and contract labor expenses from increases in headcount and production labor rates.

Other income increased by more than 300% in 2022 compared to 2021, primarily due to a gain of approximately $1.8 million on the sale of some unused assets in February 2022. Our net income was approximately $300,000 in 2022, compared to a net loss of more than $900,000 in 2021, primarily due to the aforementioned $1.8 million gain on sale of assets. Additionally, the increase in income was the result of the increase in revenue in our Radiochemical Products segment offset by the increase in operating expense from salaries, contract labor, and expenses from research and development in 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021.

Steve Laflin, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, "Our business performance results for 2022 have set a new high-water mark for the Company. The continued growth in our radiochemical segment sales led the way to this improved financial performance last year and we anticipate further growth within this business segment during 2023. Our ability to liquidate unused assets from our contract manufacturing building expansion has significantly contributed to our net profit and greatly improved our overall cash position. We anticipate that our continued investment into new RadQual product development should further strengthen sales within the radiochemical segment, and we anticipate completing significant purchases of bulk cobalt from the DOE during 2023. All of these factors should help us continue this positive trend in increased revenues and net profit for 2023."
