Remedent Reports Fiscal Third Quarter 2010 Results and Remedent to Host a Conference Call at 11:00 am EST, Thursday, February 18, 2010


DEURLE, BELGIUM--(Marketwire - February 17, 2010) - Remedent, Inc. (OTCBB: REMI), an international company specializing in the research, development, and manufacturing of oral care and cosmetic dentistry products, reported results for the fiscal third quarter ended December 31, 2009 (in U.S. dollars).

Net sales in the third quarter decreased 62% to $1.8 million from $4.8 million in the same year-ago quarter. The decrease in sales was primarily due to the non-recurrence of license fees received from Denmat, specifically $2,500,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Loss from operations in the third quarter was $964,000, as compared to a loss from operations of $467,000 in the same year-ago quarter, which was attributable to non-recurring license fees as discussed above, the planned U.S. reorganization, and an agreed settlement with an OTC customer.

Net loss for the third quarter totaled $836,000 or $(0.04) per share (after minority interest and based on 20 million weighted average basic shares outstanding), as compared to net income of $2.5 million or $0.13 per share (based on 19 million weighted average basic shares outstanding) in the same year-ago quarter. The net loss in the third fiscal quarter included a charge of $8,000 for warrants issued during the quarter, as compared to the year-ago quarterly loss which included a $4.3 million charge for warrants issued.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.4 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to $1.8 million at March 31, 2009.

Management Commentary

"We have now established a new worldwide production facility in China," said Guy De Vreese, CEO of Remedent. "Our goal has been to prepare for increasing demand and improved margins, while maintaining the quality of our dental veneers. We achieved this in the second quarter and in the third quarter have been delivering veneers with exceptional thinness and durability. Our new manufacturing facility has enabled us to increase both capacity and timeliness of shipments, while reducing costs."

New Remedent Web Site

On November 19, 2009, Remedent unveiled new corporate website at www.Remedent.com featuring its latest dental technologies. This includes GlamStrip(TM) for the single-motion application of dental veneers, and FirstFit, a revolutionary solution for dental bridges and crowns. The highly interactive website features new before and after images as well as engaging videos.

The site also provides coverage of the FirstFit presentation at the Den-Mat Education Destination Seminar in Las Vegas, which was held on November 7, 2009. The presentation was conducted by Remedent's CEO, Guy De Vreese, with the Belgian inventor of FirstFit, Dr. Evelyne Jacquemyns, presenting live via webcast from one of Remedent's international GlamSmile locations in Dubai, UAE. The event represented the first official presentation of the new bridge and crown technology to dentists in the United States.
