ASHKELON, Israel

Integrity Applications, Inc. (OTCQB: IGAP), developer of the GlucoTrack® model DF-F noninvasive blood glucose measurement device, has entered, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Integrity Applications Ltd., into distribution agreements for the GlucoTrack device in the Philippines and in Chile. According to the International Diabetes Federation, a total of about 3.3 million people with diabetes, or 6 percent of the adult population, live in the Philippines, and a total of about 1.3 million people with diabetes, or 10.4 percent of the adult population, live in Chile. This is its second distribution agreement in Asia and the second distribution agreement in South America.

The agreement in the Philippines became effective on March 11, 2014 and the one in Chile becomes effective on April 13, 2014. Based on the minimum purchase forecasts contained in these distribution agreements, Integrity Applications anticipates that these distributors will purchase from it an aggregate of about $1.6 million of GlucoTrack model DF-F devices in the first 12 months of sales.

Avner Gal, President and CEO of Integrity Applications, said, “These distribution agreements reinforce that there is global need and demand for GlucoTrack. With our recent extended CE Mark approval to six-month calibration validity, we believe GlucoTrack DF-F offers users yet another important advantage to using our device, and are continuing to market GlucoTrack to additional distributors who can offer our new, noninvasive option for monitoring blood glucose to diabetes patients.”

GlucoTrack features a small sensor that clips to the earlobe and measures the wearer’s blood glucose level by taking measurements using three technologies. The measurements are analyzed using a proprietary algorithm and displayed on a small handheld device, the size of a mobile phone. The derived blood glucose measurement is also announced verbally, making it suitable for the elderly and vision-impaired diabetes patients. The company has obtained a CE Mark for its GlucoTrack Model DF-F in Europe (June 2013) and intends to seek Food and Drug Administration approval for GlucoTrack in the United States.
