CEO Review

Significant growth investments and recruitments in the United States.

The first half of the year was weak, as exptected. The second half and the near future looks strong.

Optomed completed in May a direct share issue raising gross proceeds of EUR 4.8 million.

The second quarter and therefore also the first half of the year were weak, as previously predicted, caused by decrease in revenue from China. The near future looks strong due to rapid growth from Western markets and the upcoming new product launches, such as the Aurora AEYE, are expected to accelerate growth in the coming years.  We expect sales in China to pick up during the second half of the year, however the Chinese market has been a significant part of Optomed's revenue in the past years, and there are still major uncertainties regarding the market recovery in China. We maintain our current full year outlook, but despite our success in Western markets, the Chinese market still causes uncertainty over the full year revenue.

The US market will be centric for the success of Optomed's strategic goals and revenue growth for the next five years. Diabetic retinopathy screenings are expected to move to primary care with accelerating pace as the new national AI-based reimbursement code for diabetic retinopathy screening (CPT 92229) was approved by the US authorities (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid, CMS) early 2022. Because of the high reimbursemet enabled by the new code as well as Medicare star rating benefits, diabetic retinopathy screenings are highly profitable for primary care units. According to various estimates, there are currently approximately 200,000 - 500,000 different point of care units in the United States that may start screening for diabetic retinopathy in the coming years, and are potential customers of Optomed's Aurora AEYE solution.

According to the estimate we made together with our partners, customers and advisors, in the next 5-10 years there will be at least 50,000 - 100,000 fundus cameras connected to artificial intelligence in the United States to screen for diabetic retinopathy and later also for other blinding- and systemic diseases. It is expected that a few market leaders will supply the majority of these devices. Optomed aims to be one of these market leaders with its highly competitive products and early market entry. If we succeed in this, the diabetic retinopathy screening market in the United States alone will be able to multiply Optomed's revenue, and it will all be reoccurring revenue.

We are currently focusing our growth investments strongly in the United States. The FDA clearance process for our Aurora AEYE product is proceeding as planned. During the past quarter, we have hired additional sales and marketing personnel in the United States, and started training and preparing our organization and partners for the upcoming product launch. Optomed currently has a strong management, sales- and marketing and other operational organization ready in the USA.

In the rest of the world, the company's operating expenses are decreasing. Our largest long-term development projects are getting closer to completion and as a result, the company's fixed costs and investments will decrease outside the US during the second half of the year. As a result, and despite increasing investments in the US market, the company's profitability is expected to improve in the near future.

CEO

Outlook 2022

Optomed expects its full year 2022 revenue to grow compared to 2021.

Group performance

April - June 2022

In April-June 2022, Group revenue decreased by 7.0 percent to EUR 3,733 (4,012) thousand. The main reason for the decline was the earlier communicated changes in China impacting camera sales. This was partly compensated by strong sales of the Software segment, and the strong global distributor and OEM sales of the Devices segment". The Devices segment's revenue decreased by 28.2 percent  as the revenue from China declined over 90% whereas the rest of the world grew over 40% and the Software segment's revenue increased by 12.1 percent compared to same period last year.

The gross margin decreased to 57.6 from 82.9 percent of last year. The Company received grants and other operating income EUR 0 (624) thousand. The gross margin of the comparison period in 2021 was boosted by Business Finland waiving a loan of the Company in the amount of EUR 538 thousand. The gross margin for the second quarter of 2022 adjusted for grants and other operating income would have been 57.6 percent compared to 67.3 percent in 2021.

EBITDA amounted to EUR -813 (177) thousand. The lower gross profit in the second quarter 2022 compared to 2021 was mainly caused by lower revenue in China and higher gross profit in 2021. EBIT was EUR -1,355 (-859) thousand.

Net financial items amounted to EUR 6 (-25) thousand and consisted mainly of interest payments to financial institutions and the translation effect of Chinese RMB and USD to EUR.

The gross margin decreased to 62.4 percent from 74.2 percent last year. The Company's other operating income includes governmental grants of EUR 37 (705) thousand in the first half of 2022 and 2021, which increased the gross margin of both periods. The gross margin for the first half of 2022 adjusted for the total amount of the grants and other operating income would have been 61.9 percent compared to 65.3 percent in 2021.  

EBITDA amounted to EUR -1,750 (-138) thousand and EBIT was EUR -2,815 (-1,710) thousand.

April-June 2022

In April-June 2022, the Devices segment revenue decreased by 28.2 percent to EUR 1,361 (1,896) thousand. The negative growth was mainly due to changes in China, which were communicated in February, impacting camera sales. This was partly compensated by strong global distributor and OEM sales. The revenue from China declined over 90% whereas the rest of the world grew over 40%.

The gross margin decreased to 47.2 percent from 95.5 percent in the previous year and the other operating income was EUR 0 (623) thousand. The delta was due to the previously mentioned waived loan. In the second quarter of 2022 the gross margin adjusted for grants and the total amount of other operating income would have been 47.2 percent compared to 62.6 percent in 2021. The increased share of OEM sales of the total sales also affected the gross margin negatively.

EBITDA was EUR -464  (593) thousand or -34.1 (31.3) percent of revenue. The key driver for the decrease in EBITDA was the lower revenue in China and gross margin.

January-June 2022

Selected notes

Corporate information and basis of accounting                                            

Corporate information

Optomed is a Finnish medical technology group (hereafter `Optomed' or `Group') that specialises in handheld fundus cameras and solutions for screening of blinding eye diseases, established in 2004.

The Group's parent company, Optomed Plc. (hereafter the `company') is a Finnish public limited liability company established under the laws of Finland, and its business ID is 1936446-1. It is domiciled in Oulu, Finland and the Company's registered address is Yrttipellontie 1, 90230 Oulu, Finland.

Basis of accounting     

Optomed's consolidated financial statements has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. The preparation of this interim report also takes into account the amendments to IFRS standards that have become effective by January 1, 2022.

All presented figures have been rounded. Financial ratios have been calculated using exact figures.

These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and should be read in conjunction with Group`s last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2021.

This Interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements: selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group`s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

This report has been authorised for issue by the company`s board of directors.

Critical management judgments and related estimates and assumptions                                                                        

The preparation of financial statements under IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period as well as the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other justified assumptions, such as future expectations, that Optomed management believes are reasonable under the circumstances at the end of the reporting period and the time when they were made.                                                                                                                

Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis and when preparing financial statements. Changes in accounting estimates may be necessary if there are changes in the circumstances on which the estimate was based, or as a result of new information or more experience. Such changes are recognized in the period in which the estimate or the assumption is revised.                                                                                                               

Use of judgment and estimates

  

Judgements that management has made in the process of applying accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements, relate to the following areas:

- Determining trade receivables credit risk

- capitalisation of development costs: determination of development expenditure eligible for capitalisation

- impairment testing of development expenditures

In the financial year 2022 the Group extended the repayment schedule for borrowings from OP bank and in 2021 negotiated new loan from Nordea.

Fair values - financial liabilities measured at amortized cost

Optomed considers that the carrying amounts of the financial liabilities measured at amortized cost substantially equal to their fair values. This estimate corresponds to the fair value hierarchy Level 3, as the measurement of the said liabilities is based on Optomed management view.

Financial covenant

Optomed's borrowings from financial institutions contain a financial covenant (equity ratio) and Optomed also has to meet certain key operative targets. The borrowings will be repaid in accordance with the new repayment schedule.

Optomed has to comply with the financial covenant terms specified in the loan agreement terms at the financial year-end. Equity ratio is calculated using the agreed formula. The table below summarizes the Group's financial covenant term and compliance during the reporting period.

Company's Equity ratio is calculated as follows depending on the lender:

Nordea loan equity ratio calculation formula:  Adjusted equity/(Balance sheet total+ Leasing liabilities)

OP loan equity ratio calculation formula:  Adjusted equity/(Balance sheet total- received advances)

Optomed was in compliance with the covenant as at June 30, 2022.
