BioPorto Announces Financial Guidance for 2023

COPENHAGEN, Denmark and BOSTON, MA, USA, March 29, 2023, (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioPorto A/S (BioPorto or Company) (CPH:BIOPOR) announces financial guidance for 2023.

BioPorto's three strategic activities in 2023 are to:

• Grow revenues in European and other markets that accept CE Mark
• Focus on the US NGAL test's regulatory pathway
• Expand the total addressable market for NGAL tests

Key assumptions relating to the 2023 outlook are as follows:

• Assumes minimal growth in NGAL test revenues in the US during the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) review process, and since the timing for an approval is unknown, BioPorto is not including any post-approval revenue in its outlook.
• While FDA approval is pending, costs related to future clinical studies are assumed to be lower than in 2022.
• Sales & marketing costs are assumed to increase compared to 2022 associated with Europeanfocused business development and global product marketing (including travel and related expenses), reimbursement studies, and expanded distributor material and content support.
• R&D costs (excluding those related to clinical trial activities) are assumed to increase compared to 2022, including as a result of the full year impact of 2022 hirings, investments in studies to prepare regulatory filings to increase the addressable US market through expanded clinical chemistry analyzer claims, and investments in manufacturing and quality systems.
• Administrative costs are expected to be comparable to 2022.
• The Company will take judicious mitigating actions throughout the year to protect or strengthen its financial position, including reducing operating expenses in targeted areas.

The outlook for 2023 is summarized as follows:

	Unaudited 2022	Outlook 2023
Revenue	DKK 29 million	Approximately DKK 30 to 33 million
Adjusted EBITDA Loss	DKK (67) million	Approximately DKK (60) to (65) million

BioPorto's performance and guidance for 2023 are dependent on the continued resolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the continued opening of societies and the normalization of access to hospitals, research laboratories, and regulatory bodies.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) is an alternative measure of performance utilized by management, investors, and investment analysts to evaluate and analyze the Company's results. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash share-based compensation and non-recurring costs.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure that does not have a standard meaning prescribed by IFRS and may not be defined and calculated by other companies in the same manner and thus may not be comparable with such measure.
