Radiopharmaceutical developer Immunomedics is beginning to show some results from its restructuring and the refocusing of its operations (SCAN 4/28/99). The Morris Plains, NJ-based company reported a 28.6% increase in its fourth-quarter revenues (end-June). Revenues were $1.8 million, compared with the $1.4 million reported in the same quarter a year ago. The firms net loss also narrowed to $2.6 million, compared with a loss of $3.4 million in the fourth quarter last year.

For 1998, revenues were $7.6 million, showing no growth over the $7.6 million posted last year. The firm trimmed its losses slightly, however, recording a net loss of $11.2 million, compared with $11.8 million in fiscal 1998.
