INTERNATIONAL ISOTOPES INC. ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS OF 2022

The Company Reported A 10% Increase In Revenue And Net Income of more than $900,000 For The Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho, Aug. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- International Isotopes Inc. (OTCQB: INIS) (the "Company" or "INIS") announces its financial results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $5,242,249 compared to $4,752,408 for the same period in 2021.  This was an overall increase of approximately 10% and was the result of a significant increase in sales of radiochemical products.  Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022, was $2,434,808 compared to $2,759,896 for the same period in 2021, an overall decrease of approximately 12%.  The decrease in revenue for the three-month period was largely the result of decreased sales of cobalt products which was largely attributable to the timing of sales in the period comparisons. 

The Company's net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, was $982,997 compared to a net loss of $782,539 for the same period in 2021.  The increase in net income was attributable to a $1.8 million gain on the sale of assets during the first quarter and by continued increases in radiochemical sales.  The Company did report a net loss for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022, of $272,048, compared to a net loss of $181,387 for the same period in 2021.  The net loss was largely attributable to the lack of cobalt product sales during the second quarter.

The following provides a summary of our current business segment performance for the three-and six-month periods.

Revenue from the radiochemical products segment increased approximately 12% for the three-month period and 59% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021.  The increase in both periods was primarily the result of growth in our customer base and increased customer purchasing volumes.  Our sodium iodide drug is used to treat thyroid cancer and diseases of the thyroid and we are currently the only domestic supplier of this important drug product.

Revenue from nuclear medicine products, operating as RadQual LLC, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, increased less than 1% compared to the same period in 2021.  Revenue from nuclear medicine products for the six months ended June 30, 2022, decreased approximately 8% compared to the same period in 2021.  The Company believes the decrease in revenue over the six-month period and smaller than hoped increase over the three-month period are both attributable to the lingering impact of COVID-19 on patient nuclear medicine treatment and imaging procedures.

Revenue from the sale of cobalt products for the three months ended June 30, 2022, decreased approximately 83% and revenue for the six months period decreased approximately 61% compared to the same period in 2021.  The decrease for both periods was primarily due to the timing of sales.  Large volume cobalt sales typically occur on a somewhat random basis and can have a significant impact on period-to-period comparisons.  The Company continues to expect a significant increase in cobalt sales during the second half of the year.

Steve Laflin, President, and CEO of the Company, said, "We continue to expect very positive financial performance for the Company for the remainder of this year.  Radiochemical product sales are expected to continue to be strong in the third and fourth quarter.  There are several significant cobalt sales scheduled for the second half of the year which should boost revenue performance in that segment.  And, steps we are taking to strengthen our sales force, marketing presence, and conduct special product promotions should help the nuclear medicine reference and calibration standards improve sales as well.  We also believe the lingering negative impact COVID-19 will continue to dissipate.  Overall, we believe the Company will continue to generate positive cash flow and we expect to report a strong finish to, and overall profit for, the calendar year."
