About Us

LecTec is an intellectual property (“IP”) licensing and holding company with approximately $10,000,000 in cash at March 31, 2010. LecTec holds multiple domestic and international patents based on its original hydrogel patch technology and has also filed for a provisional patent for its hand sanitizer patch. The LecTec hydrogel patch technology allows for a number of potential applications, while its hand sanitizer patch is a consumer product which kills targeted infectious organisms and is intended to be dry, thereby rendering the patch harmless in the event that it is licked, chewed or exposed to the eye. An initial prototype of the LecTec hand sanitizer patch has been developed. Although LecTec is conducting limited research and development on its hand sanitizer patch, it intends to engage a strategic partner to complete the hand sanitizer patch development and bring it to market. LecTec also has a licensing agreement with Novartis Consumer Health, Inc., which pays royalties to LecTec from time to time based upon a percentage of Novartis’ net sales of licensed products. LecTec takes legal action as necessary to protect its IP and is currently involved in two patent infringement actions. Finally, LecTec is pursuing a merger/acquisition strategy with the intent to leverage its cash asset and improve shareholder liquidity.
