Radiation oncology firm Varian Medical Systems reported sales of $171 million in its fiscal third quarter, up 18% compared with the $145 million reported in the same period in 1999. For the period (end-June 30), the Palo Alto, CA-based vendor had net income of $14 million, compared with pro forma net income of $10.9 million in the third quarter of 1999.
Varian’s solid performance was due to strong demand for advanced radiotherapy systems -- particularly in North America -- and substantial increases in sales of its new high-power x-ray tube, according to president and CEO Richard Levy.
