The increase was primarily driven by an 83% surge in revenues in the United States, which resulted from an increase in sales from products to the military in connection with a teaming agreement.

Shipments of the Model 615 increased by 18% in 2014, whereas shipments of replacement cartridges increased by 35%.
Julian Ross, OxySure's Chairman & CEO, stated: "We are now remarkably well-positioned as an emerging medical device leader to achieve our goals for 2015 and beyond. These goals include rapidly growing our direct sales force, expanding overseas, launching a direct to consumer campaign, uplisting our company to NYSE or Nasdaq, and making strategic acquisitions."
The company reported several highlights from 2014, such as receiving the CE Mark Approval for its Model 615 device, a critical step toward launching the product line into the 30 countries belonging to the European Economic Area. The company expanded its international distribution footprint by adding new distributors in Singapore and Saudia Arabia. OxySure also secured Cliff Meidl, two-time Olympian and Team USA Olympic Flag Bearer as a spokesman and Special Advisor exclusively to the company.
Following the release of the year end revenues, Zacks Small Cap Research reiterated its buy recommendation, with analyst Jason Napodano giving the company a target price of $1.75, a premium of 127% to the current $0.77 price.
Napodano stated: "We think OxySure can eventually get total revenues at the $10 million mark through a combination of organic growth and M & A activities. The current market capitalization is only $22 million, meaning OxySure is trading at roughly 6x our projected 2015 revenues."
