OraSure Technologies Announces Record 2007 Second Quarter Results

- Increases 2007 Full Year Revenue Guidance -

BETHLEHEM, PA – July 31, 2007 – (BW HealthWire) – OraSure Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSUR), a market leader in oral fluid diagnostics, today announced record quarterly revenues of $21.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a 22% increase over the $17.6 million in revenues recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Increased sales of the Company’s OraQuick ADVANCE® rapid HIV-1/2 antibody test, substance abuse testing products and international over-the-counter (“OTC”) cryosurgery products, together with an increase in funded research and development related to the Company’s rapid Hepatitis C (“HCV”) test, contributed to the increase in total revenues during the second quarter.

The Company’s net income was $955,000 or $0.02 per share on a fully-diluted basis for the second quarter of 2007, compared to net income of $1.2 million, or $0.03 per share on a fully-diluted basis for the second quarter of 2006. This decrease is primarily the result of higher operating expenses during the current quarter, as described below.

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded revenues of $41.5 million, an increase of 26% when compared to revenues of $32.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The Company recorded net income of $2.4 million, or $0.05 per share on a fully-diluted basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to net income of $2.1 million, or $0.04 per share on a fully-diluted basis, during the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Gross margin remained at 63% for both the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2007 increased to $12.9 million from $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2006. Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $24.8 million, compared to $18.4 million for the comparable period in 2006. These increases were primarily attributable to higher research and development costs associated with the product development and clinical work for an OraQuick ADVANCE® HIV test for home use and an OraQuick® HCV test for professional use, higher staffing


related expenses, higher legal expenses, and additional consulting expenses related to long-range facilities planning and the implementation of the Company’s new enterprise resource planning system.

“We are very pleased with the Company’s financial results in the second quarter,” said Douglas A. Michels, President and Chief Executive Officer of OraSure Technologies. “Continued growth in infectious disease testing, substance abuse testing and international OTC cryosurgical systems revenues has resulted in yet another excellent quarter. We also made good progress during the quarter towards achieving our long-term strategic initiatives. We continue to believe that 2007 will be a very successful year for our Company, both financially and strategically.”

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $89.1 million and working capital was $103.9 million at June 30, 2007, compared to $91.0 million and $96.0 million, respectively, at December 31, 2006.

Cash flow from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $2.7 million, compared to $8.2 million for the comparable period in 2006. The decrease of $5.5 million was primarily the result of increases in accounts receivable and inventories, offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses during the current six-month period.

2007 Financial Guidance

Based on the Company’s strong performance during the first six months of 2007 and expected increases in sales of OTC cryosurgery products, the Company expects revenues of $21.0 to $21.5 million in the third quarter and is increasing full-year 2007 revenue guidance to approximately $83.0 million. Fully diluted earnings per share are expected to range from breakeven to $0.01 per share in the third quarter and to be approximately $0.05 per share for the full year.
