OREM, Utah, June 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reflect Scientific, Inc. (Symbol: RSCF), a provider of diverse products and services for the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and transportation industries, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2021.
“The first quarter of 2021 had improved margins due to the sales mix trending toward our more profitable Cryometrix freezers and chillers. Because of this, the quarter was profitable even though revenues were down. The time for site preparation required for installation of the ULT freezers makes the revenue figure for Reflect choppy,” stated Mr. Kim Boyce, CEO of Reflect Scientific.
