US Nuclear Corp. (OTCBB: UCLE), a leading manufacturer of advanced radiation detection instrumentation, announced profitable results for the year ended December 31, 2015. 

"We started off strong in 2015 and kept up the momentum throughout the entire year, as demonstrated by our vigorous increase in sales revenue and earnings per share," said Robert I Goldstein, President, CEO, and Chairman of US Nuclear Corp. "The increase in sales revenue and earnings can be attributed to our market penetration in China through the help of our new representative, as well as starting to deliver on the new cycle of upgrades from existing customers that we previously predicted. The recognition and quality of our tritium monitors has allowed us to capture new opportunities in the rising nuclear power and research sectors, while continuing to service our world-wide base of existing customers. Furthermore, our unique water monitoring instrumentation continues to retain advantage in the marketplace and gain traction as regulations for safe drinking/effluent water tighten." 

In related news, US Nuclear Corp. recently received a new order totaling $235,000 from our representative in Canada, Radiation Measurement Systems (RMS), in April 2016 for portable tritium in air monitors. To meet current and future electricity needs, the Canadian government has invested several billion dollars towards extending the operating life of a number of reactors through refurbishment, and as one of the original suppliers, US Nuclear Corp./RMS are well positioned to meet future requirements as they arise.
