·
The Third Quarter of Fiscal 2013 marked the completion of the transition of the Company from the former Tegal Corporation to CollabRx, Inc., a data analytics company that uses cloud-based expert systems to inform healthcare decision-making. The Company consolidated operations from Petaluma, CA, and Palo Alto, CA, and completed its relocation into new headquarters in San Francisco, CA. 

CollabRx noted that its acquired operations was a development-stage company and that its stock began trading on Nasdaq under the symbol CLRX, on September 27, 2012 – two trading days before the beginning of the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2013.  The financial report for the fiscal third quarter includes one-time launch activities for the newly public CollabRx.  CollabRx entered its commercialization stage in the current Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2013.

 
 

 
 
Business Outlook

In the current Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2013, CollabRx expects to begin recognizing revenue related to software development as part of its agreement with Life Technologies.

CollabRx expects quarterly cash operating expenses to continue to be in the range of $750,000 to $1 million.  However, the company expects its operating expenses in near-term quarters to be materially offset by revenue both from agreements with its current partners and customers, as well as new agreements that it expects to sign during Fiscal 2014.  CollabRx believes that it could reach cash break-even upon completion of one or more agreements in the company’s new-business pipeline.

“We are confident that, in Calendar 2013, we can establish a demonstrable trajectory to becoming a technology, content and market leader in the data analytics space in health care, covering a breadth of disease states in genomic medicine, with a depth of analytic and data management capabilities,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Thomas Mika.  “We are advancing our engagements with Everyday Health and Life Technologies, and our Therapy Finder apps are becoming increasingly available to greater numbers of cancer patients.  We are proud to have such a meaningful impact on the treatment of cancer.  We believe that our expanding pipeline of additional strategic partnerships can bring CollabRx solutions to even more patients, physicians and clinicians, beginning in Calendar 2013.”
