BOHEMIA, N.Y., Sept. 30, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Scientific Industries Inc. (OTCBB:SCND) — The Company reported net income of $8,700 ($.01 earnings per basic share) on net sales of $7,848,400, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, compared to a net loss of $75,300 ($.05 loss per basic share) on net sales of $6,793,200 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.

The increased revenues resulted primarily from sales of Torbal brand products and increased sales of catalyst research instruments.  The results also reflected significant increases in depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily related to the Company’s February 2014 acquisition of the Torbal division of its Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations, totaling $434,800 as compared with $262,800 for the fiscal years 2015 and 2014, respectively. 

Ms. Helena R. Santos, President and Chief Executive Officer, remarked that she is optimistic about the upcoming year’s results as a result of the Company’s significantly higher sales backlog of $2.5 million which it expects to deliver in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016, although no assurance can be given.
