INVESTMENT OPINION



Ludlow BioVentures Updates Research Coverage on Cryoport, Inc. (CYRX)
Last Updated: August 15, 2008 - 7:43am EST

NEW YORK--Ludlow Bio Ventures updates research opinion on Cryoport, Inc. (OTC: CYRX), a leading supplier of affordable temperature sensitive shipping solutions for the frozen biopharmaceutical industry, maintains B- rating, issues near-term price target of $1.50 per share.


Summary


On August 14, 2008, the company filed their 10 report with the SEC, which showed minimum revenues of $13,424, as compared to $5,541 for the same period in 2007. Net loss jumped to ($8,222,481), as compared to ($745,508) for the same period in 2007. This dramatic jump was attributed to the extinguishment of debt, which we believe should be a one time event.

What is needed now for the company is news of signed contracts with biotech companies to use their new Cryoport Express System, as this would be the catalyst to send the company to the next level.

T
he CryoPort Express system provides a much needed commercial service to biotech and pharmaceutical companies needing to ship temperature sensitive material through a trusted 'cold chain' supply chain. On Dec. 19, 2007, the company announced that it had named Federal Express (FedEx) as its global shipping provider for its CryoPort Express system. Extreme condition test results out of India have shown positive results, and a potential client in the region has requested the company to focus their efforts on developing a plan for the entire Asia Pacific region.

Unlike biotechnology or drug stocks, where one has to go through an extensive FDA phase study program that may take months if not years, Cryoport has a commercial industry service that may start generating revenues for the company once launched. Instead of trying to find the next big drug or technological breakthrough, it may be wiser to look at companies that services this industry and have more immediate possibilities for revenue recognition.

Ludlow BioVentures is maintaining its B- rating on the company, and issuing a near-term price target of $1.50 per share.
