FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

ABMC REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2019 RESULTS

Kinderhook, N.Y., November 14, 2019

– American Bio Medica Corporation (OTCPK: ABMC) today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Chief Executive Officer Melissa A. Waterhouse stated, “Sales in the third quarter of 2019 increased slightly when compared to the third quarter of 2018. This is primarily due to increased contract business; an area we previously indicated would positively impact sales in the second half of 2019.”

Waterhouse added, “Operating expenses are down once again due to our concerted efforts to control expenditures. This, along with increased sales, enabled us to decrease our operating loss and our net loss in the third quarter of 2019 when compared to the third quarter of 2018. From a liability perspective, we are currently in discussions to extend and/or refinance our debt that matures in 2020. Looking forward, we are hopeful that orders from new customers and potential new business currently in our pipeline will enable us to continue reporting increased sales and improved results from operations in the fourth quarter of 2019.”
