Over the 3 rd quarter of 2015, Genomic Vision recorded revenue from sales of €681 thousand, up 47% compared with the 3 rd quarter of 2014. This increase in sales, 90% of which consists of revenue from the Company's R&D collaboration with Quest Diagnostics, is due to a number of milestones reached over the period:
The remaining revenue from sales corresponds to product sales, which remained stable at €66 thousand and came from:
1 Unaudited data reviewed by the Supervisory Board on October 20, 2015.
Once €305 thousand of other revenue, corresponding to tax credits (research tax credit and innovation tax credit totaling €302 thousand) and R&D subsidies (€3 thousand), is taken into account, total revenue from 3 rd quarter activity was €986 thousand, up 47% compared with the 3 rd quarter of 2014.
Over the first 9 months of the year, revenue from activity came to €2.4 million, compared with €3.9 million at September 30, 2014.
At September 30, 2015, cash and cash equivalents totaled €18 million, compared with €18.7 million at June 30, 2015. This figure, which includes €1.3 million in tax credits (research tax credit and innovation tax credit) booked on December 31, 2014 and reimbursed by the tax authorities in August 2015, reflects almost-identical cash burn compared to previous quarters.
Erwan Martin, Genomic Vision's VP Finance & Corporate Development, comments: "The increase in our revenue in the 3 rd quarter of 2015 reflects the intense work undertaken by our teams, both R&D and Business Development, which has led to the validation of a number of major milestones within the framework of our collaboration with Quest Diagnostics. These achievements, materialized by the development of the new analysis software for all our tests and by the start of the clinical validation of the SMA test, were recorded within the framework of stringent spending controls and will be decisive for our development."

DNA molecular combing technology considerably improves the structural and functional analysis of DNA molecules. DNA fibers are stretched out on glass slides, as if "combed", and uniformly aligned over the whole surface. It is then possible to identify genetic anomalies by locating genes or specific sequences in a patient's genome using genetic markers, an approach developed by Genomic Vision and patented under the name Genomic Morse Code. This exploration of the entire genome at high resolution via a simple analysis enables the direct visualization of genetic anomalies that are undetectable by other technologies.
