Approximately 51% and 53% of total benchtop laboratory equipment sales (42% and 48% of total revenues) for the three month periods ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, were derived from the Company’s main product, the Vortex-Genie 2 mixer, excluding accessories.

 

Approximately 25% and 21% of total benchtop laboratory equipment sales (21% and 19% of total revenues) were derived from the Torbal Scales Division for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, three customers accounted for approximately 21% and 22% of net sales of the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations (18% and 20% of the Company’s total revenues). Sales of catalyst research instruments generally comprise a few very large orders averaging approximately $50,000 per order to a limited number of customers, who differ from order to order. Sales to two and one customer during the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, accounted for approximately 96% and 74% of the Catalyst Research Instrument Operations’ revenues and 10% and 7% of the Company’s total revenues, respectively.
