Nanophase Technologies Announces Fourth Quarter and 2004 Results

Nanophase Optimistic About Material Revenue Growth in 2005

ROMEOVILLE, Ill., March 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nanophase Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: NANX), a technology leader in nanomaterials and nanoengineered products, today announced fourth quarter and fiscal 2004 results. Based on the detailed financial statements accompanying this release, the Company`s results are stated approximately as follows.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20030422/NANXLOGO )

For the quarter ending December 31, 2004, total revenue was $1 million compared with total revenue of $1.2 million for the same period in 2003. Nanophase reported a fourth quarter 2004 net loss of $1.87 million, or $0.10 per share (fully diluted), compared with a net loss for the fourth quarter 2003 of $1.46 million, or $0.09 per share (fully diluted).

Jess Jankowski, Nanophase`s CFO, noted that the fourth quarter of 2004 reflects an unplanned anomaly in quarterly revenue flow. Nanophase`s first quarter of 2005 to date appears to be about 50% higher than the fourth quarter of 2004 and back on track with the Company`s growth plans for 2005.

For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company reported total revenue of approximately $5.21 million compared with $5.45 million for 2003. For 2004, the Company reported a net loss of $6.45 million, or $0.37 per share (fully diluted), compared with a net loss of $5.83 million, or $0.38 per share (fully diluted) for 2003. Nanophase noted that depreciation and amortization amounted to approximately $0.08 per share (fully diluted), or $1.4 million of the Company`s loss for 2004.

2004 Significant Achievements
1. Completed an equity partnership with Altana Chemie, through which
Altana Chemie invested $10 million in Nanophase and obtained
exclusivity in the coatings, plastics, and sealants global markets.
2. Named to Deloitte & Touche`s Technology Fast 50 Program for
Chicagoland, a ranking of the Chicago area`s 50 fastest growing
technology companies by Deloitte and Touche LLP, one of the nations`
leading professional services firms.
3. Completed PVS reactor production improvements that increased
output/reactor by ~25% resulting in a 20+% increase in total
manufacturing capacity at the Company`s Burr Ridge facility without
capital investment.
4. Reduced variable manufacturing cost on high volume products by 10%
marking the fourth year in a row that the Company has significantly
reduced its manufacturing cost.
5. Designed and installed production facilities for high-weight loaded
nanoparticle aqueous dispersions, based on proprietary and patent-
pending technology, expected to be a growing segment of the Company`s
revenues starting in 2005.
6. Based on proprietary and patent-pending technology, designed,
installed, and began producing high-weight loaded nanoparticle
solvent dispersions, primarily for the Company`s partnership with
Altana Chemie (BYK Chemie) for coatings, plastics and sealants, which
is also expected to contribute to growth of the Company`s revenues.
7. Achieved 100% customer product acceptance and 100% customer service
level rate on 2004 product shipments. This marks the third
consecutive year that Nanophase has achieved excellent customer
quality and on-time shipment performance.
8. Completed concept development and pilot production of six new
nanomaterials, applicable for several of Nanophase`s markets that the
Company plans to formally introduce during the first half of 2005.
9. Filed three new patent applications and developed the technology for
two additional patent applications that the Company expects to file
in 2005. Increased the Company`s intellectual property estate by
receiving three foreign patents and one US patent; Nanophase has 10
US and 37 foreign patents pending.
10. Developed ten new products, seven with the Company`s market partners,
for introduction during 2005.
11. Significantly extended the Company`s application technology in
nanoparticle dispersions, nanoparticle surface treatments, and
application-specific coating functionality.


2004 Current View

Joseph Cross, Nanophase`s president and CEO, stated that, although Nanophase does not make predictions or provide guidance, the Company is optimistic about revenue growth during 2005. "Management`s goals are to grow revenue significantly during 2005 while continuing vigorous business development to achieve further revenue growth that we expect would accelerate the Company`s progress toward a break-even cash flow run rate during 2006," Cross noted. "The Company expects 2005 revenue growth to occur mainly with our current market partners (Altana Chemie, BASF, and Rohm & Haas) plus new opportunities that we have developed over the past 12-18 months, which are now anticipated to come to revenue fruition in 2005 and 2006. We continue to gain momentum in business development and new market opportunities as nanomaterial technology recognition and application interest grows across industrial markets." While the Company plans to elaborate on each of its target markets during the conference call, a brief summary is provided below.

Cross noted that during 2005 Nanophase would focus on three primary areas: first and most importantly, revenue growth and vigorous business development; second, increasing and expanding the Company`s intellectual property portfolio directed to market applications; and, third, continuing to improve operations and process technology, and developing new nanomaterials for target markets.

Personal Care

Nanophase expended substantial development effort during 2004 in applications for personal care markets and believes these markets should provide significant revenue growth for the Company during 2005-2006. Nanophase`s 2005 revenues for sun care products for daily and beach wear are currently expected to increase approximately 25% over 2004. Nanophase has also completed development of the second version of its sun care product, which should begin market introduction during 2005.

During 2004, Nanophase also initiated efforts with certain leading personal care companies to develop products for additional specific personal care applications. Nanophase believes that revenue from these efforts could begin during late 2005 and potentially comprise an appreciable revenue stream during 2006-2007.

CMP & Polishing

Cross noted that its market partner, Rohm & Haas Electronic Materials (RHEM), secured its first customer for its nanoparticle-based slurry during the fourth quarter of 2004. RHEM believes that the market adoption rate will increase during 2005. Nanophase/RHEM have an agreement that results in a 25% increase in revenues to Nanophase during 2005 versus 2004.

In other fine polishing market sectors, Nanophase has customer-focused developmental efforts in high-end and optics polishing. While still a small revenue source, this market grew over 500% during 2004 and Nanophase believes that growth should continue. This represents Nanophase`s first product that is sold directly to an end-user customer, typically for polishing laser and other specialty lenses.

Coatings/Printing inks/Thermoplastics/PVC/Polyurethane Foam

Driven by its partnership with Altana Chemie, Nanophase is making definitive progress penetrating the noted markets. Altana Chemie, through its subsidiary BYK Chemie, a global leader in additives for coatings, has released two products in each of the coatings and plastics markets and began sampling hundreds of potential customers in the US, Europe, and Asia during the second half of 2004. Other new products are under development at BYK with plans for further market releases during 2005. Additionally, Nanophase has an aggressive new nanoparticle development plan in place for the first half of 2005 directed to specific market applications in its partnership with BYK.

Conference Call

Nanophase plans to provide additional information during its conference call on March 3 at 10:00 AM CST (11:00 AM EST) and encourages its stockholders and other interested parties to attend. The call may be accessed through Nanophase`s website, http://www.nanophase.com , and clicking on the line under Investor Relations and Calendar of Events.

Conference calls are often impacted by market trends, geopolitical conditions,
news coming from conferences and economic releases.

The talking heads were reminding the markets today that China expects to double
its automobiles on the road, is building a massive highway system, and could
eventually have ten times the oil demand as the U.S., just on the basis of
population alone. The 4-month high in crude oil, then, whether it recedes this
year, is not the question. The question is: when will the market begin to factor
in the extraordinary impact oil will have in the years ahead absent some
monumental breakthrough in alternative energies? If the government really has

Nanophase Announces Fourth Quarter Revenues

Xetra-Orderbuch | Nanophase Announces Fourth Quarter Revenues
ROMEOVILLE, Ill., Jan. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nanophase Technologies (Nachrichten), a technology leader in nanomaterials and nanoengineered products, announced revenue for the fourth quarter of 2005 (unaudited) and full year 2005 (unaudited). Fourth quarter 2005 revenue was approximately $1.43M compared to $0.99M in the fourth quarter of 2004, representing a 44% revenue increase year-over-year (YOY). Comparing the same two periods, product sales grew to approximately $1.34M from $0.76M, or a 77% increase YOY.

2005 revenue increased to approximately $6.8M, compared to $5.2M in 2004, representing total revenue growth of 31% YOY. Product sales significantly increased to approximately $6.45M in 2005, versus $4.25M in 2004, growing 52% in 2005. Comparing 2005 to 2004, other revenues decreased approximately $.6M in 2005 reflecting the absence of a non-recurring development agreement for 2004.

"While fourth quarters are often lower than earlier quarters due to seasonality in the sunscreen business, fourth quarter 2005 revenue was the highest fourth quarter revenue in the Company`s history and shows significant growth over the same period in 2004, especially the 77% increase in product sales," stated Joseph Cross, Nanophase`s president and CEO. "2005 revenue growth, most importantly the 52% growth in product sales, represents a solid year for Nanophase and establishes a multiple market platform for future revenue growth and expansion."

"Given the time required for Nanophase`s financial audit activities and the additional time needed for SOX audit compliance, we have decided to release unaudited revenues at this time to allow the Company to communicate with its stockholders and institutional investors. We expect to complete all audit activities and be able to release full audited earnings by early March followed by our normal conference call. As soon as the timing is firm, we will announce the schedule."

Nanophase Technologies Notes New Order
4/6/2006 -
Romeoville, IL, April 6, 2006 – Nanophase Technologies (Nasdaq: NANX), a technology leader in nanomaterials and advanced nanoengineered products, noted the initial order for a new application for industrial UV and antimicrobial protection for the transportation and marine markets. The application success is a result of collaborative efforts between Nanophase and an industry-leading company under a secrecy agreement, and Nanophase’s platform of integrated nanomaterials technologies that provides unique nanoparticles dispersions.



“We expect that this high value-added product line should grow well for us over the next couple of years,” noted Dr. Ed Ludwig, Nanophase’s vice president of Business Development. “At the heart of our success in such new applications is our ability to manipulate and disperse our nanoparticles, putting the nanoproducts in ready-to-use format for customers. Without the proper particle size control, purity, and surface chemical characteristics, the superior performance of Nanophase’s products could not be achieved, which represents a significant competitive advantage for the Company.”
