EDAP Announces Third Quarter Results Conference Call

LYON, France, Nov. 14, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- EDAP TMS S.A. (Nasdaq:EDAP) the global leader in High Intensity Focused Ultrasound treatment of prostate cancer, announced it will release its third quarter 2007 financial results Monday, November 26, 2007 after the market close. Management will host a conference call Tuesday, November 27 at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time. This schedule accommodates the U.S. Thanksgiving holidays and closing requirements for EDAP's recently completed $20 million capital raise for its ongoing Clinical Phase III Trial of the Ablatherm-HIFU system for localized prostate cancer.

Marc Oczachowski, CEO, highlighted: "Our HIFU division confirmed its revenue progression with a 39% third quarter increase compared to last year's third quarter and a 21% over the nine months. Our RPP business showed a nice 37% increase over the nine months. The third quarter included the sale of 8 Sonolith units and 1 Ablatherm, this period being typically a slow quarter due to seasonal trends in Europe. We, however, entered the fourth quarter with a strong backlog including two Ablatherm units already purchased and delivered. We are extremely enthusiastic in concluding the year with a good fourth quarter as this period is generally a strong one due to the end of year hospital purchasing. In Europe, our marketing and sales teams are focused on expanding our businesses at an accelerating pace in established key countries and in new markets. Our U.S. clinical team is moving forward in finalizing site selection for our FDA trials and accelerating patient recruitment with the support of a specialized PR agency just hired. The recent fundraising has definitely been secured at the appropriate time, and we now have the financial means to achieve our U.S. ambitions."
