OXFORD, United Kingdom and MARLBOROUGH, Mass., Nov. 01, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Oxford Immunotec Global PLC (Nasdaq:OXFD), a global, high-growth diagnostics
company focused on developing and commercializing proprietary tests for the
management of underserved immune-regulated conditions, today announced third
quarter 2016 financial results.

"We are very pleased with our financial and operating results during the third
quarter," said Dr. Peter Wrighton-Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Oxford
Immunotec. "Sales performance exceeded our expectations in our core tuberculosis
(TB) business with solid organic growth coming from the United States and Asia.
We also saw better than expected results in our tick-borne disease business
which has recently been strengthened through our acquisitions of Imugen and
Immunetics."

 ((1) )Changes in revenue include the impact of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates. We use the non-GAAP financial measure "constant currency basis"
in our filings to show changes in our revenue without giving effect to period-
to-period currency fluctuations. We consider the use of a period over period
revenue comparison on a constant currency basis to be helpful to investors, as
it provides a revenue growth measure free of positive or negative volatility due
to currency fluctuations.

Third Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Revenue for the third quarter of 2016 was $26.1 million, representing 46% growth
over the third quarter 2015 revenue of $17.9 million. On a constant currency
basis, revenue growth was 41% versus the prior year period. Revenue for the
third quarter included $4.1 million from Imugen, which the Company acquired on
July 1, 2016. Excluding the impact of Imugen, revenue for the third quarter
increased 23% over the prior year period.

2016 third quarter product revenue was $9.7 million, representing a 17% increase
from product revenue of $8.3 million in the third quarter of 2015. The increase
in product revenue was primarily attributable to growth in Asia. Service revenue
for the third quarter of 2016 was $16.4 million, up 70% from 2015 third quarter
revenue of $9.6 million. The increase in service revenue was primarily driven by
TB volume increases in the United States as well as the acquisition of Imugen.

United States revenue was $16.2 million in the third quarter of 2016,
representing 74% growth over revenue of $9.3 million in the prior year period.
The increase was primarily due to increased service revenue in the United States
as a result of the Imugen acquisition, as well as organic growth in our core TB
business. Excluding the impact of Imugen, United States revenue grew 29% over
the prior year period, driven primarily by increased volume in the institutional
and physician office segments.

Europe & ROW revenue was $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2016, representing
a 6% increase compared to the third quarter of 2015. On a constant currency
basis, Europe & ROW increased 15% versus the third quarter of 2015.

Asia revenue was $8.2 million in the third quarter of 2016, representing 17%
growth over 2015 third quarter revenue of $7.0 million. On a constant currency
basis, Asia grew 7% versus the third quarter of 2015. The increase was driven by
continued growth in Japan and China.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2016 was $14.6 million, an increase
of $4.7 million over gross profit of $9.9 million in the same period of 2015.
Gross margin was 55.9%, an increase of 90 basis points from the gross margin of
55.0% in the third quarter of 2015. The increase in gross margin was driven by
favorable revenue mix and exchange rate movements.

Operating expenses were $18.9 million in the third quarter of 2016, an increase
of $4.2 million compared to $14.7 million in the same period last year. The
increase in operating expenses was largely due to the inclusion of $1.5 million
in operating expenses from Imugen, as well as increased headcount, acquisition
expenses and legal expenses.

EBITDA for the third quarter was $(3.0) million compared to $(3.8) million in
the third quarter of 2015. Adjusted EBITDA was $(2.2) million for the third
quarter compared to $(2.0) million in the same period in 2015. Both EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2016 was $4.0 million, or $0.18 per share,
compared to $4.5 million, or $0.20 per share, in the third quarter of 2015. Net
loss per share was based on 22,365,349 and 22,259,840 weighted average ordinary
shares outstanding for the third quarters of 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents were $37.3 million as of September 30, 2016, compared
to $64.0 million as of June 30, 2016. Cash usage during the quarter was in line
with expectations.

Imugen Acquisition

On July 1, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of
the assets of Imugen, a Massachusetts-based clinical laboratory focused on
developing and performing specialized testing for tick-borne diseases, for $22.2
million in an all cash transaction.

Immunetics Acquisition

On October 12, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of Immunetics, Inc.,
a Massachusetts-based diagnostics company focused on developing specialized
tests for infectious diseases, such as Lyme disease, for $6 million in cash and
up to an additional $6 million in cash payable on the achievement of certain
revenue thresholds and pipeline related milestones over the next three years.

Debt Financing

On October 4, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement with MidCap Financial
that provided the Company with $40 million in debt financing, comprised of both
a term loan and a revolving line of credit.

The agreement provides the Company with a term loan of $30 million which matures
five years from closing. The term loan accrues interest at a rate of LIBOR plus
7.60% with interest-only payments for the first 24 months, with the ability to
extend to 48 months subject to certain conditions, before the loan begins to
amortize. The agreement also provides the Company with a revolving line of
credit of up to $10 million upon closing. The revolving line of credit matures
five years from closing and accrues interest at LIBOR plus 4.45%. Based on
certain conditions, both the term loan and the revolving line of credit may be
increased by an additional $10 million to support the Company's future growth.

Business Outlook

We expect to report full year 2016 revenue of between $85.0 and $85.8 million,
representing 35%-37% year-over-year growth. This compares to prior guidance of
between $82.5 and $84.5 million.

We expect to report revenue of between $22.6 and $23.4 million for the fourth
quarter of 2016.

We expect to have over $50 million in cash at the end of 2016, excluding any
drawdowns on our revolving line of credit and believe that this capital is
sufficient to allow the Company to achieve profitability.

((1)) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures that we calculate as net
loss, adjusted for the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that
we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. We believe that
these measures provide useful information to investors in understanding and
evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board
of Directors. Our presentation of these measures is not made in accordance with
U.S. GAAP, and our computation of these measures may vary from others in the
industry. Our use of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and
you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our
results as reported under U.S. GAAP.

The above table presents a reconciliation of net loss, the most comparable U.S.
GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods indicated.
