compared with $25.4 million for the same period in 2010. III-V revenue increased 21% to $17.6 million from $14.5 million for the comparable quarter last year, reflecting stronger first quarter orders from the Company’s integrated circuit partners. Display reve- nue grew 59% to $17.3 million versus $10.9 million in the first quarter of 2010, primarily as a result of higher military display sales.


Net income for the first quarter of 2011 was $2.1 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared with $1.0 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, for the 2010 first quarter.

roBioGen AG and Life Technologies Corporation announced the launch of the new Freedom™


CHO-S™ Kit as the result of a successful co-deve- lopment. The kit was built for developing stable high yield production cell lines in less than 4 months, and is based on Life Technologies’ CHO-S™ Cells. The Freedom™ CHO-S™ Kit platform enables end-users the cost- and time-efficient creation of stable cell lines for research and commercial purposes. The kit’s applicability and efficiency was confirmed in several studies, in which antibody titers of 1 to 3 g/L have been obtained. http://www.probiogen.de
