Patient Safety Technologies, Inc. (AMEX:PST) provides further
financial information. The Company anticipates that third-quarter
revenue will rise to $122,000 from $30,000 a year earlier and net
losses will decrease to $2.0 million, or 31 cents per diluted
share, from $2.2 million, or 39 cents per share, in 2005. Revenue
from the Company's car wash services segment of $104,000 accounted
for 85 percent of the Company�s revenue while revenue generated
from the medical products segment, which marked the first quarter
that the Company recognized revenue in its medical products
segment, of $18,000 accounted for the remaining 15 percent.
Included in the Company�s estimated loss of $2.0 million is
approximately $675,000 in non-cash charges related to depreciation,
amortization, debt discount and stock-based compensation expenses.
While the Company believes these estimates have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, actual
results may change upon final review of the Company�s financial
results by its independent accountants. The Company continues to
have limited to no funds and operates through loan agreements and
revolving lines of credit. PST also announced today that its Board
has authorized management to initiate specific steps of a new
restructuring plan. The Company, in cooperation and support from
several of PST�s largest shareholder groups, including Bodnar
Capital Management, LLC (�BCM�), has taken steps in which it
believes will be extremely positive for its shareholders,
including: Securing an estimated $1 Million bridge loan with BCM
and other strategic investors Restructuring a majority of the
Company�s short-term debt Engaged Trinity River Advisors, an
outside, independent advisor and Chief Restructuring Officer
(�CRO�) to assist PST with its restructuring plan
(www.trinityriveradvisors.com) Engaged Peterson & Co, LLP, the
Company�s new independent auditor The Board has determined at this
time, after reviewing purchase offers for SurgiCount Medical, the
Company�s primary subsidiary, and discussing with the new CROs, to
evaluate ALL options or alternatives available regarding SurgiCount
in order to optimize value for PST shareholders. Further, PST is no
longer in default to any of its creditors regarding the Company�s
loan agreements or its loan covenants. The Company has reached
newly executed or tentative agreements with its creditors to
restructure its short-term debt that will greatly affect the
working capital deficiencies of the Company. �I anticipate that
this debt restructuring will dramatically strengthen our balance
sheet, ultimately moving approximately $3.5 million of short-term
debt that was included in the Company�s June 30, 2006 $5.8 million
working capital deficit to long-term debt,� said Milton �Todd� Ault
III, Chairman and CEO of PST. Additionally, the Company announces
it has engaged Peterson & Co, LLP as the Company�s new
independent auditors, who will begin work immediately to assist the
Company with its next Form 10-Q filing and all future filings. The
Company hopes to file its September 30, 2006 10-Q on time, but will
keep investors apprised of the filing given the Company�s
engagement of new auditors. The Company also announces it has
appealed the American Stock Exchange's (�Amex�) delisting
determination and will provide Amex with its restructuring plan,
including the above-mentioned bridge loan, restructured debt and
plans to bring new capital into the Company, which the Company
believes will bring it back into compliance with Amex�s continued
listing standards. About Patient Safety Technologies, Inc. Patient
