Integral Vision, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2008 Results

    WIXOM, Mich., May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Integral Vision, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: INVI), a leading global supplier of automated display
inspection technology, today announced financial results for the first
quarter ending March 31, 2008.


Business Highlights -- Integral Vision is beginning to see backlog increase as a result of new display technologies that are gaining market acceptance and recognition by the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) industry. -- Integral Vision's largest customer this month announced a partnership with a large Taiwanese company to open a plant dedicated to the production of MEMS displays. Integral Vision expects to benefit from this expansion with equipment deliveries starting later this year. -- A major computer manufacturer has specified that all of its suppliers use Integral Vision's SharpEye(TM) system to test displays prior to customer delivery. This company has sent out over 200 invitations to its suppliers requesting that they visit our booth at the SID show in Los Angeles, California in late May to receive demonstrations. -- Integral Vision will deliver the first production inspection system for e-paper in the second quarter of this year. Interest for this product is strong based on the market acceptance of e-paper products. First Quarter 2008 Financial Results Net revenues for the first quarter of 2008 were $9,000, a decrease of $307,000 from $316,000 in the first quarter of 2007. The resulting 2008 first quarter loss of $846,000 is $99,000 greater than the $747,000 loss for the first quarter of 2007. Charles J. Drake, chairman and CEO of Integral Vision, Inc., commented, "Despite the low revenue for the first quarter, we continue to be very confident that 2008 will be a breakout year for the Company. Shipments will be stronger as the year progresses; and our bookings and quoting activity is greater than we have ever experienced in the past." Drake concluded, "Our sales penetration with LCD manufacturers will also be significant this year, which we anticipate will lead to improved sales. In addition, the emergence of new display technologies, namely MEMS, e-paper and OLED, from existing Integral Vision customers will show significant sales traction for us later in 2008 and for several years going forward."
