The increase in cost of sales during 2007 period was in part due to expenses associated with the Company’s introduction of U-Cord service enhancements, including return shipping by a medical courier for all new U.S. customers, and an increase in cord blood collection reimbursements. The increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses reflects the Company’s previously announced strategic initiatives to strengthen the resources allocated to sales and marketing. This resulted in increased expenses associated with various marketing and sales initiatives. Also, contributing to the increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses were approximately $580,000 in professional fees associated with the proxy contest and approximately $126,000 in stock option compensation which is the result of the Company’s adoption of FASB Statement No. 123(R).

As of August 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $4.8 million in available cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and other investments, and it had no long-term debt.

“We believe that several factors may have potentially contributed to relatively flat revenues for Q307 including the overall state of the economy and its possible impact on discretionary consumer spending. In addition, we believe that expansion of public cord blood banks during 2007 may have possibly served to further intensify competition in the cord blood industry,” stated Mercedes Walton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cryo-Cell. “These considerations notwithstanding, the Company intends to continue our strategic priority focus on achieving product diversification and on advancing plans to commercialize novel and compelling technology from Cryo-Cell’s extensive portfolio of intellectual property. We reaffirm our commitment to deliver increased shareholder value in the coming periods”.
