(OTC Bulletin Board: EROX) ("HPS" or "the Company") today announced results for the three months and the year ended December 31, 2010. For the three months ended December 31, 2010, net revenue was $225,000, representing a 1% increase from revenues of $223,000 in the prior year period, and resulted in net income of $118,000 ($0.03 per share) as compared with net loss of $29,000 ($0.01 per share) for the three months ended December 31, 2009, a $247,000 improvement. For the year ending December 31, 2010, net revenues of $806,000, were 9% less than revenues of $885,000 generated in the year ended December 31, 2009. The net loss in the current year of $97,000 ($0.02 per share) was a $187,000, or 66%, reduction from the $284,000 loss ($0.07 per share) recorded for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Administrative expenses reductions of approximately $92,000 gave rise in net income of $118,000 during the three months ending December 31, 2010 as compared with a net loss of $29,000 in the prior year period. The administrative expense reductions for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $141,000, or 16% as the Company reduced operating costs to the current levels of revenues.

"We continue to work in all three of these areas on a daily basis," a spokesperson indicated. The Company further noted that it continues to seek alternative distribution channels for its technologies and to generate marketing interest in its patent-pending sea coral based compound, classified as ER 303.
