CEO JUSSI HAHTELA:

Revenue continued to grow

The year 2024 started strong for Biohit. Our revenue grew to EUR 7.4 million from EUR 6.5 million in the reference period. This is an increase of 14.0%. Operating profit amounted to EUR 1.3 million, which is slightly less than the EUR 1.5 million in the first half of last year. The operating profit percentage was 17.8 compared to 23.2 in the previous half of the year.

The operating profit decreased slightly in the reporting period, but the growth is still profitable in the long run.

The 14 per cent increase in revenue was just shy of the 15-20 per cent goal in line with the strategy. In late spring, we made a product improvement to the GastroPanel quick test, which, together with testing in compliance with the regulations, caused a brief interruption in sales at the end of the reporting period. Incorporating a new antigen that recognises more strains of Helicobacter pylori than before, improves the sensitivity of the diagnostics and their suitability for the global market.

We were able to nicely make up for the temporary dip in GastroPanel sales by increasing the sales of other diagnostics.

In the first half of the year, sales growth was largely driven by OEM products, i.e. products made by contract manufacturers, the profitability of which is slightly lower than that of the products we produce in-house. This partially explains the slightly lower operating profit percentage compared to the reference period. The most important factor, however, is the implementation of the growth strategy. Growth requires manpower and that costs money. We have invested in skilled workers, increasing the number of personnel by 11.9% since June of last year.

We are receiving public support from Business Finland for two R&D projects. The total amount of grant funding is EUR 0.9 million, of which EUR 0.1 million was accrued as income in the result for the reporting period. The financial effects of the business development grant of EUR 0.2 million granted by the Centre for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment are not included in the figures for the reporting period.

Biohit's balance sheet is strong, and the equity ratio is high (76.0 per cent). This creates a solid foundation for a profitable growth path and its financing.

The company's cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 1.8 million (EUR 2.4 million) at the end of the reporting period. The company's liquidity is at a good level.

Into the latter part of the year in accordance with the strategy

The new strategy launched last year has already proved to be effective: It has clearly helped us target and prioritise what we do.

Products that work, are safe and generate genuine added value are the starting point of the business, and results are achieved through active and market-based sales.

The structural growth drivers for Biohit are strong. The population is ageing, gastrointestinal problems are becoming more common, and healthcare is suffering from a lack of resources. Biohit's diagnostics are a global solution to a global problem.

For the remainder of the year, we will proceed with our familiar, well-tested tactics. Sales as a priority, cost control and continuous improvement of operational efficiency are an effective trio.

Biohit's growth has been strong. The revenue of the first half of this year was higher than the revenue of the whole Covid-year of 2020.We know that as the speed increases the going may get bumpy. There will definitely be setbacks as it is not possible to avoid every bump in the road. We take nothing for granted and do not build castles in the sky. However, we believe in our products and in what we do. The concept has been tested and proven to work.

OUTLOOK FOR 2024 (Unchanged)

In accordance with the financial goals we set in the strategy, we expect our revenue to rise to 15.1-15.7 million euros in 2024 and our operating profit percentage to be at least 10.

FINANCIAL GOALS AND STRATEGY

Financial targets for the strategy period 2024-2028:

  • Revenue growth 15-20% annually
  • Operating profit (EBIT) at least 10% of revenue

Priorities and actions of the strategy:

  • Continuing the innovation legacy of being the experts of the gastrointestinal tract: Strengthening our competitive edge by developing business operations and investing in product development while understanding the laws of health technology. Strengthening cooperation with industry, research institutes, universities, hospitals and laboratories.
  • Widening the markets: Presence in all relevant markets, either through our own subsidiaries or through local sales representatives. Ensuring high quality distributor networks and digital channels.
  • Completing the product range: Dynamic modification of the product range based on customer needs.
  • Active selling: Strengthening customer understanding, better identifying their needs and providing tailored, value-added solutions. A systematic order-to-supply chain.
  • A company that attracts investors and talents: Strengthening the reputation of a profitably growing health technology company through an active IR policy and providing excellent development opportunities for new talents.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Biohit's product portfolio consists of diagnostic tests, analysis systems, products binding carcinogenic acetaldehyde into a harmless compound, monoclonal antibodies, as well as service laboratory operations. The entire product and service portfolio is reported under a single segment.

Revenue increased by 14,0% and was EUR 7.4 million (EUR 6.5 million). Implementing the strategy for 2024-2028 generated revenue increase. As anticipated, investing in growth decreased profitable against the comparison period, but the growth is still profitable in the long run. During the review period, international operations accounted for 98.6% (98.2%) of the revenue.

Operating profit fell by 12.5% ??and was EUR 1.3 million (EUR 1.5 million), or 17.8% of revenue.


BALANCE SHEET, FINANCING AND OPERATIONAL CONTINUITY

On the 30th June 2024, the balance sheet totalled to EUR 14.2 million (EUR 12.5 million). Balance sheet increased due to profitable reporting period. At the end of the review period our company's equity ratio was 76.0% (73.2%).

Our financial position has remained steady. On the 30th June 2024, company financial assets totalled EUR 4.8 million (EUR 5.5 million). This does not include Genetic Analysis AS shares.

The company has managed to keep its working capital on a good level and the management believes that working capital and the company's other financial assets will cover the operations for the next 12 months. The company is not dependent on external financing to be able to guarantee the continuity of its operations.

Cash flow from operating activities was EUR -1.5 million during the review period 1-6/2024. The main reason for the negative cash flow was the increased inventory as the company is preparing for H2 sales. Strong sales in June also contributed to the deficit. Standard payment terms will generate positive cash flow only at the beginning of H2.

According to company's management, the company's ability to continue its operations is good and there are no indications that events or circumstances that alone or together might give a significant reason to doubt the organisation's ability to continue its operations.

INVESTMENTS, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND CLINICAL STUDIES

Gross investments during the H1/2024 reporting period totalled EUR 0.2 million (EUR 0.1 million), and they were mainly focused on product development and the costs incurred for ensuring compliance with official requirements.

R&D operations focus on innovations as well as product development and improved usability. Biohit also employs external experts and subcontractors in its R&D operations.

Development costs of EUR 0.2 million (EUR 0.1 million) were capitalized in January - June 2024. Research and development expenditure excluding depreciation and amortization during the reporting period H1/2024 amounted to EUR 0.5 million (EUR 0.6 million).

Product development of new products proceeded as planned. Ensuring compliance with the IVDR and MDR regulations took a lot of resources, which had been reserved for.


PERSONNEL AND MANAGEMENT

At the end of June 2024 Biohit Group employed 47 (42) people. During the review period, the Biohit Group employed on average 46 (42) people, of whom 36 (33) were employed by the parent company and 10 (9) by the subsidiaries.

The members of Biohit's Management Team are: CEO Jussi Hahtela, CFO Jussi Sorvo, Production Director Suvi Elomaa, Research and Development Director Panu Hendolin, CCO Ilari Patrakka, Sales and Marketing Director Graham Johnson and Quality and Regulatory Affairs Director Daniela Söderström.

MAIN EVENTS IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE YEAR (H1)

Biohit announced on March 7, 2024 that a total of 60,000 of the company's new B shares have been subscribed with Biohit Oyj's I 2013 stock options in the period March 1, 2024 - March 11, 2024. The subscription price of the shares, a total of EUR 60,000.00, has been recorded in the invested unrestricted equity fund, and the company's share capital did not change as a result of the share subscription. The shares in question were registered in the trade register on March 27, 2024, and they produce the same rights as the company's old B shares from the date of registration. As a result of the subscriptions, the number of all Biohit Oyj shares increased to 15,173,593 shares and the number of B shares increased to 12,198,093 shares.

Organizational change as part of the 2024-2028 growth strategy

On June 14, 2024, we announced the organizational reform as part of the 2024-2028 growth strategy. With the organizational change, we aim to strengthen the strategic and operational performance of product development. With the organizational change, Biohit's R&D director and Member of the Management team, Panu Hendolin, will become the company's Chief Technology Officer. In addition to the strategic management of product development, he will be responsible for instruments and monoclonal antibodies in the future. Hendolin will continue as a Member of Biohit's Management Team. In addition, Marika Karjalainen will start as Biohit's R&D Director, responsible for the operational management of R&D. The changes enter into force on August 12, 2024.


SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The company's most significant risks relate to the success of product development and to the registration of products.

Due to the nature of the industry, regulation can slow down sales growth. The product registration processes vary by market area, and taking over new markets can be slow.

Due to the EU's new IVDR regulations, the launch of new products will be slower than before on account of the bottlenecks built into the regulation (e.g. the notified body requirement and the very limited number of these bodies).

The goal of the company's liquid asset investment activities is to achieve returns with a low risk of capital loss. The investment portfolio consists of deposits, investment funds and corporate bonds.

Central to risk management is the adequate diversification of investments between asset categories, investment instruments and counterparties. The company's investment portfolio is subject to equity risk, which is managed through diversification and allocation decisions. In addition, the investment portfolio is subject to interest rate risk, which is managed by adjusting the duration of the portfolio, if necessary. Furthermore, the potential instability of financial markets might negatively affect the value of investments.

The company's investment in the shares of the listed Norwegian company Genetic Analysis AS is subject to changes not only in the share value, but also in the EUR/NOK exchange rate.

Biohit's customer base is widely diversified, with the exception of GastroPanel® sales in China, which currently represents a major single business for Biohit. Biohit HealthCare (Hefei) Co. Ltd. has, based on a security agreement signed on 8 February 2022, pledged to Biohit 1,500,000 class B Biohit shares as security for its obligations referred to therein. The pledge significantly decreases the risks that are related to sales in China.

Otherwise, the company is not significantly dependent on individual customers or project deliveries.

The sales and balance sheet of Biohit's UK subsidiary are denominated in GBP, and so the weakening of the pound against the euro is a risk for the company. Otherwise, the company's business is mostly denominated in EUR, and the indirect effects of exchange rate fluctuations are not estimated to be of significant importance.

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Biohit Oyj held on Wednesday June 5, 2024 approved the financial statements for the financial year 2023.

The company has classified the hierarchies of financial assets according to the availability of data on market terms and other price data.

The fair values on level 1 of the hierarchy are based on the quoted (unadjusted) prices of identical assets or liabilities on active markets.

In significant part, the fair values of level 2 instruments are based on other input data than the quoted prices included in level 1, although this data can be obtained for the assets or liabilities in question either directly (as a price) or indirectly (as a derivative of the price).

The original book value of other receivables corresponds to their fair value because the effect of discounting is negligible in view of the maturity of the receivables.
