Regulatory News:
TheraVet (ISIN: BE0974387194 ticker: ALVET), a pioneering company in the management of osteoarticular diseases in pets, reports its 2023 full year and 2024 first quarter revenues.
The number of BIOCERA-VET units sold increased by 54% in 2023 as compared to 2022; 741 units were sold generating €0.12 million of revenues, mainly in Europe.
BIOCERA-VET BONE SURGERY1 accounted for 80% of the units sold and BIOCERA-VET OSTEOSARCOMA RTU for the remaining 20%. BONE SURGERY RTU 3*1cc and OSTEOSARCOMA RTU 2*12cc have significantly contributed to these figures with 49% of the total units sold. BIOCERA-VET COMBO CLEAN launched in Europe in May 2023 and in the United States in October 2023 already accounted for 5% of a total units sold in 2023. BIOCERA-VET OSTEOSARCOMA RTU and BONE SURGERY RTU sales increased respectively by 68% and by 50% in 2023 as compared to 2022. In 2023, 173 units were sold in North America (USA and Canada) for 23% of total sold units, representing a 6-fold increase compared to 2022
First quarter of 2024 BIOCERA-VET sales were flat at 206 units compared to first quarter of 2023 and decreased by 9% compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. While the number of BIOCERA-VET BONE SURGERY units sold increased (vs. year ago and quarter over quarter), the product range sale was impacted by BIOCERA-VET OSTEOSARCOMA. In the United States, the designation of the University of Florida, previously a customer, as the site of the clinical study2 measuring the efficacy of cementoplasty with BIOCERA-VET OSTEOSARCOMA, weighed on the volume of business generated by this product. In Europe, sales of BIOCERA-VET OSTEOSARCOMA were affected by the reduction in the number of patients treated, but a marked increase in requests from owners (+18%) should result in purchases by veterinary surgeons in the 2nd quarter, pointing to a rebound by the end of the half-year.
The 36% increase in indirect sales recorded (compared with fourth quarter of 2023) was mainly due to the significant growth in United Kingdom (+60%) since the third and fourth quarters of 2023.
First sales of BIOCERA-VET Equine, launched on March 13, 2024, was registered during this 2024 first quarter.
