Executive Summary
Gish Biomedical is to cut its work force by 23%, in response to declining sales and earnings. Earlier this month the company, which manufactures disposable surgical devices, warned it would have to make management changes (see Clinica No 877, p 12). It is now looking for further ways to reduce running costs and improve its competitiveness. The staff cuts will cost Irving, California-based Gish around $100,000 to implement. The company maintains that its balance sheet is strong and that it has substantial cash reserves.
