OLATHE, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Hooper Holmes, Inc. (NYSE MKT: HH) today issued a corporate update highlighting the Company's progress during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 and reaffirming total year guidance.

As discussed during the Hooper Holmes 2015 Financial Results Conference Call on March 29, 2016, the Company completed major steps to strengthen its balance sheet during the first quarter of 2016. These steps include completing a rights offering which raised new capital of over $3.5 million, providing additional liquidity and improving the Company's capital structure. Further the Company received a $1.2 million investment by 200 NNH, LLC, an affiliate of Kanon Ventures through the sale of 10 million shares, subject to an 18-month lock-up period.

Henry Dubois, President and CEO of Hooper Holmes commented, "We have improved our capital structure by $4.7 million since January 1, 2016. Year to date we have also won new sales which we expect to contribute at least $3.3 million in new 2016 revenue."

Mr. Dubois continued, "In financial terms, 2015 was a record year for screening units and a record year for Health & Wellness revenues, marking our seventh straight year of Health & Wellness revenue growth. We continue to be on track to generate at least $42 million of revenue in 2016, and to be EBITDA and operating cash flow positive for the full year."

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company's audit opinion in the Form 10-K included a going concern clarifying statement. The Company will continue to monitor its liquidity carefully and work to reduce this uncertainty.
