FT. MYERS, Fla., April 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NeoGenomics, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: NGNM) announced today that it had filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission its annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. A copy of this annual report can be found at http://www.SEC.gov .
The audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in the 10-KSB included an additional contingency charge expense of approximately $177,000 versus the unaudited results we issued on March 18, 2008. This contingency charge was for registration penalties we have been incurring as a result of delays in completing an effective registration statement for the shares we sold in our June 2007 private placement. In accordance with FASB Staff Position 00-19-2, "Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements", we have accrued approximately $177,000 of penalty expense as of December 31, 2007 for the liquidated damages expected through May 2008. As a result of this change, our audited net loss for FY 2007 has increased by $177,000 versus the net loss we issued in our March 18, 2008 earnings release. However, by taking a charge for this in 2007, we hope to avoid any further negative impacts to our income statement from these penalties in 2008.
