Lifeloc Reports 2024 Full Year Results

WHEAT RIDGE, Colo., March 28, 2025 -- Lifeloc Technologies, Inc. (OTC: LCTC), a global leader in the development and manufacturing of breath alcohol testing devices, has announced financial results for the 2024 fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

2024 Financial Highlights

Lifeloc Technologies posted annual net revenue of $8.538 million resulting in a net loss of ($1.053) million in 2024, or ($0.41) per diluted share. These results compare to net revenue of $9.330 million for 2023, with net profit of $205.6 thousand, or $0.08 per diluted share. Revenues for 2024 declined by 8% versus 2023, in part because revenue in 2023 reflected pent-up demand that had leveled out by 2024, and in part from the adverse increasing impact of inflation on customer budgets. Total gross margin in 2024 declined to 40.4% versus 43.3% for 2023, due to a combination of reduced volume as well as component inflation. The sales decline, increased costs, as well as record research and development investment all contributed to the loss for the year. We expect more broadly applied price increases to improve margins in 2025.

We believe our core alcohol detection product line-up is strong. The L-series LX9 and LT7 units have features and performance that are driving market penetration by meeting previously unaddressable market needs, such as smart phone pairing, wider temperature use ranges and fast customization that incorporates local languages. We expect that sales of our newer L-series devices will be incremental to FC-series devices rather than displacing FC sales. The L-series devices have been certified to meet the requirements of most modern registration standards, such as SAI’s (Standards Australia International) latest AS 3547:2019 standards for Breath Alcohol Detectors. We continue to evolve the capability and certifications of these units to add more value and gain market share. Our FC-series devices remain popular with many law enforcement and international organizations. Our Easycal® automated calibration station, the only automated calibration available for portable breath alcohol testers, builds valuable protection around our brand and contributes to market share gains across the board, especially for our workplace Phoenix® 6.0 BT and EV 30 devices.

We believe our most important goal and best opportunity remains the convergence of the global need for rapid detection of drugs of abuse with Lifeloc’s proven capability to build easy-to-use portable testing equipment. We are therefore focusing our research and development efforts on leveraging the SpinDx™ technology platform, sometimes referred to as “Lab on a Disk,” to develop a series of devices and tests that can be used at roadside and in emergency rooms, forensic labs and workplace test sites to achieve a rapid and quantitative measure for a panel of drugs of abuse. SpinDx has been demonstrated in our laboratory to effectively detect for delta-9-THC, cocaine, fentanyl, amphetamine methamphetamine, morphine, MDMA, and benzodiazepines. Testing has validated the SpinDx measurement technology against the definitive standard liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (LCMS) measurement utilizing human samples.  The LCMS data have validated the SpinDx test results on real-world human saliva tests at a limit of detection of approximately 10 ng/ml. With our research and development work, we continue to improve our technology’s robustness, speed, and convenience of operation. We are currently performing validation testing of the microfluidic action and full drug assay utilizing the current disk design. This testing has resulted in the need for some additional design work before moving into beta testing and production tooling.

We plan to start beta testing of our SpinDx saliva testing system utilizing the delta-9-THC disks in the second quarter of 2025 using prototype readers as shown in the photograph below. The initial product release is projected to be a device with a disk that allows for detection of delta-9-THC (the major intoxicating component of the cannabis plant) from a test subject’s saliva, followed by a disk for a panel of other drugs. Commercial launch of our first SpinDx application is projected to occur in early 2026. Following initial commercialization, we expect more offerings from this technology platform to include expanded drug panels and samples collected from blood and breath. Following the release of our SpinDx saliva testing system, we expect to accelerate development of combining our LX9 breathalyzer with the THC SpinDx detection unit, to produce our roadside marijuana breathalyzer system.

“Lifeloc has made great progress in 2024. We have invested significant resources into pushing this SpinDx development towards launch. This included choosing long term value creation over short term profitability to fund this opportunity. We anticipate continued high research and development expenses in this final push toward commercialization. And we look forward to beginning to show off the device to key customers at upcoming industry trade shows,” commented Dr. Wayne Willkomm, President and CEO.

Because of the high research and development investment and the need for manufacturing equipment for SpinDx, the company has sought to strengthen its financial resources. At the end of 2024, the company closed on a $750,000 debenture, followed by an additional investment of $75,000 on the same terms in Q1 2025, to assist in the SpinDx development prior to moving forward into production and commercialization.
