ICON (NASDAQ:ICLR), a global provider of outsourced development
services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device
industries, today reported its financial results for the third
quarter ended September 30, 2006. As a consequence of the change of
financial year, the comparative quarter mentioned in this press
release will be the quarter ended August 31, 2005. ICON recently
completed its bonus issue of shares (effectively a share spilt),
the number of weighted average shares in this press release
reflects the share split in both the current and comparative
figures. Net revenues for the quarter were $120.7 million,
representing a 40% increase over net revenues of $85.9 million for
the comparative quarter last year. Income from operations, on a US
GAAP basis, was $12.6 million and net income was $10.1 million or
35 cents per share, on a diluted basis. Adjusting for $1.0 million
in relation to the expensing of stock compensation in accordance
with SFAS No.123(R), income from operations was $13.6 million,
compared to $8.4 million last year and net income was $11.1 million
or a diluted 38 cents per share, compared with $6.4 million or 23
cents per share last year. Adjusted operating margin was 11.3%,
compared with 9.7% for last year. Year to date, net revenues were
$326.6 million, a 28% increase over the comparative period last
year. Income from operations was $34.0 million and net income was
$26.9 million or 94 cents per share, on a diluted basis. Adjusting
these figures to exclude $3.0 million in relation to the expensing
of stock compensation in the current year and the one-time charge
of $11.3 million, relating primarily to the impairment of goodwill
in the prior year, income from operations for the period ended
September 30, 2006 was $37.0 million, an increase of 70% from $21.8
million last year and operating margin was 11.3%, compared with
8.5% for last year. Adjusted net income was $29.9 million or a
diluted 103 cents share, compared with $17.4 million, or 61 cents
per share last year. Days sales outstanding, comprising accounts
receivable and unbilled revenue less payments on account, were 57
days at September 30, 2006, a decrease from 65 days at December 31,
2005. For the quarter ending September 30, 2006, cash in-flows from
operating activities were $2.6 million, $6.5 million was invested
in acquisitions and capital expenditures were $8.4 million, of
which $2.3 million related to the extension of our Dublin facility.
Year-to-date, cash in-flows from operating activities were $33.0
million and capital expenditure was $19.3 million. As a result, the
company�s cash and short-term investments, net of debt, was $90.7
million at September 30, 2006, compared to $101.0 million at June
30, 2006 and $77.5 million at December 31, 2005. �Q3 was another
excellent quarter for ICON�, commented Chairman Dr. John Climax.
�Our clinical business continues to grow very strongly and our
central laboratory made further solid progress. New business wins
in the quarter were very satisfactory and we have had a good start
to the fourth quarter. Market conditions remain positive and we
continue to be confident in the outlook for the year� ICON has
invited tenders for the sale and leaseback of the company�s Dublin
facility which is currently undergoing expansion. The estimated
total cost of construction of the expansion will be in the region

million has been spent to-date. The first phase of the expansion
project will be completed and ready for occupancy in mid 2007. The
