Orchid BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: ORCH) Previous Close: Up 16% to $4.75 on vol. 2,167,400 Shares: ACCUMULATE
Orchid BioSciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: ORCH) announced that it has successfully performed ultra-high throughput genotyping using its proprietary SNP-IT(TM) SNP scoring technology on two different instrument platforms. Orchid is the first company to demonstrate the feasibility of ultra-high throughput SNP scoring on multiple platforms. Both systems serve as scalable components of Orchid's MegaSNPatron(TM) facilities that provide SNP scoring services primarily for high volume users like pharmaceutical and agricultural companies.
Orchid BioSciences recently reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2001. Total revenues for the first quarter of 2001 increased to $5.6 million, up from $3.5 million for the same period in 2000, an increase of 60 percent. The increase in revenues during the first quarter resulted primarily from placements of SNPstream(R) 25K platforms, sales of SNPware(TM) consumable kits, sales of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) scoring and DNA and other genetic diversity testing services, collaboration and license fees, and the addition of Cellmark Diagnostics, which Orchid acquired in February, 2001.
Orchid BioSciences, Inc. is a leading provider of products, services and technologies for SNP scoring and genetic diversity analyses. Orchid has developed SNP-IT, its proprietary SNP analysis technology and markets SNPstream instruments and SNPware(TM) consumables that rapidly generate highly accurate, cost effective SNP information. SNP-IT is usable in environments ranging from small-scale laboratories to large commercial facilities. Its versatility also has enabled Orchid to partner with industry leaders to make SNP-IT-enabled products available on a wide variety of instrument platforms.
