— To hold conference call regarding fourth quarter and year end results from 2016 on Tuesday, April 4, 2017 at 4:30pm
EDT —
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., March 29, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. (“TOMI“) (OTCQX:TOMZ), a global decontamination and infection prevention company that specializes
in disinfection/decontamination sales and services, including the manufacturing, sale and licensing of its SteraMist™, a
hydrogen peroxide-based mist/fog that is registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), announced its financial
results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.
Dr. Halden Shane, CEO and Chairman of TOMI, stated: “The state of play for TOMI has never been more dynamic and
TOMI experienced substantial change during 2016. Around the world, healthy living is becoming a priority, which we believe will
result in TOMI seeing greater interest in its products from the healthcare sector, service division and food safety industry.
"Although our net revenue increased by more than 50%, it still fell short of expectations due to an overhaul of
our sales force, administration and the training of new personnel.
"However, we managed uncertainty in the near-term and targeted our investments to accelerate future growth. We
hired energetic and qualified personnel, developed promising technologies, formed important partnerships, and expanded our global
footprint. We also boosted our digital presence, evolved our supply chain, and harnessed sustainable innovation to enhance our
efficiency.”
