NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – BASIS OF PREPARATION

1.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of IBA cover the six months ended June 30, 2019. They have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements as at December 31, 2018.

1.1.1 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as of 1 January 2019 :

  • ➢ IFRS 16 Leases
  • ➢ IFRIC Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments
  • ➢ Amendments to IFRS 9 Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation
  • ➢ Amendments to IAS 28 Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures
  • ➢ Amendments to IAS 19 Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement
  • ➢ Annual IFRS Improvement Process
  • ➢ IFRS 3 Business Combinations Previously held Interests in a joint operation
  • ➢ IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements Previously held Interests in a joint operation
  • ➢ IAS 12 Income Taxes Income tax consequences of payments on financial instruments classified as equity
  • ➢ IAS 23 Borrowing Costs Borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation

IFRS 16 Leases

IFRS 16 replaces IAS 17 Leases and sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases and requires lessees to account for all leases under a single onbalance sheet model similar to the accounting for finance leases under IAS 17 Leases. The standard includes two recognition exemptions for lessees – leases of 'low-value' assets (e.g., personal computers) and short-term leases (i.e., leases with a lease term of 12 months or less). At the commencement date of a lease, a lessee will recognise a liability to make lease payments (i.e., the lease liability) and an asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term (i.e., the right-of-use asset). Lessees will be required to recognise separately the interest expense on the lease liability and the depreciation expense on the right-of-use asset.

Lessees will be also required to remeasure the lease liability upon the occurrence of certain events (e.g., a change in the lease term, a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine those payments). The lessee will generally recognise the amount of the remeasurement of the lease liability as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset.

Lessor accounting under IFRS 16 is substantially unchanged from today's lessor accounting under IAS 17. Lessors will continue to classify all leases using the same classification principle as in IAS 17 and distinguish between two types of leases: operating and finance leases.

IFRS 16 also requires lessees and lessors to make more extensive disclosures than under IAS 17.

The new standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. IBA did not elect for an early application. IBA has selected the modified retrospective approach. The standard's transition provisions permit certain reliefs. In 2018, the Group assessed the potential effect of IFRS 16 on its consolidated financial statements.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the impact on the income statement of continuing operations of IFRS 16 is as follow:

  • ➢ Depreciation expenses increased by EUR 1.86 million relating to the depreciation of right-of-use assets
  • ➢ Rent expense decreased by EUR 1.96 million relating to previous operating leases
  • ➢ Financial expenses increased by EUR 0.12 million relating to the interest expenses on additional lease liabilities recognized

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the impact on the income statement of discontinued operations of IFRS 16 is as follow:

  • ➢ Depreciation expenses increased by EUR 0.56 million relating to the depreciation of right-of-use assets
  • ➢ Rent expense decreased by EUR 0.60 million relating to previous operating leases
  • ➢ Financial expenses increased by EUR 0.06 million relating to the interest expenses on additional lease liabilities recognized

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the impact on the financial position of continuing operations of IFRS 16 is as follows:

The incremental borrowing rates (IBR) used for the calculation of the discounting of lease liabilities are between 1.23% and 11.21%.

IFRIC Interpretation 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment

The Interpretation addresses the accounting for income taxes when tax treatments involve uncertainty that affects the application of IAS 12 Income Taxes. It does not apply to taxes or levies outside the scope of IAS 12, nor does it specifically include requirements relating to interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax treatments. The Interpretation specifically addresses the following:

• Whether an entity considers uncertain tax treatments separately

• The assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities

• How an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates

• How an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances

An entity has to determine whether to consider each uncertain tax treatment separately or together with one or more other uncertain tax treatments. The approach that better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty needs to be followed.

The Group applies significant judgement in identifying uncertainties over income tax treatments. Since the Group operates in a complex multinational environment, it assessed whether the Interpretation had an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Upon adoption of the Interpretation, the Group considered whether it has any uncertain tax positions, particularly those relating to transfer pricing. The Company's and the subsidiaries' tax filings in different jurisdictions include deductions related to transfer pricing and the taxation authorities may challenge those tax treatments. The Group determined, based on its tax compliance and transfer pricing study, that it is probable that its tax treatments (including those for the subsidiaries) will be accepted by the taxation authorities. At this stage, the interpretation did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Amendments to IFRS 9: Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation

Under IFRS 9, a debt instrument can be measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income, provided that the contractual cash flows are 'solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding' (the SPPI criterion) and the instrument is held within the appropriate business model for that classification. The amendments to IFRS 9 clarify that a financial asset passes the SPPI criterion regardless of an event or circumstance that causes the early termination of the contract and irrespective of which party pays or receives reasonable compensation for the early

termination of the contract. These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Amendments to IAS 28: Long-term interests in associates and joint ventures

The amendments clarify that an entity applies IFRS 9 to long-term interests in an associate or joint venture to which the equity method is not applied but that, in substance, form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture (long-term interests). This clarification is relevant because it implies that the expected credit loss model in IFRS 9 applies to such long-term interests.

The amendments also clarified that, in applying IFRS 9, an entity does not take account of any losses of the associate or joint venture, or any impairment losses on the net investment, recognised as adjustments to the net investment in the associate or joint venture that arise from applying IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures.

These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements as the Group does not have longterm interests in its associate and joint venture.

Amendments to IAS 19: Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement

The amendments to IAS 19 address the accounting when a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement occurs during a reporting period. The amendments specify that when a plan amendment, curtailment or settlement occurs during the annual reporting period, an entity is required to determine the current service cost for the remainder of the period after the plan amendment, curtailment or settlement, using the actuarial assumptions used to remeasure the net defined benefit liability (asset) reflecting the benefits offered under the plan and the plan assets after that event. An entity is also required to determine the net interest for the remainder of the period after the plan amendment, curtailment or settlement using the net defined benefit liability (asset) reflecting the benefits offered under the plan and the plan assets after that event, and the discount rate used to remeasure that net defined benefit liability (asset).

These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group as it did not have any plan amendments, curtailments, or settlements during the period.

Annual Improvements 2015-2017 Cycle

IFRS 3 Business Combinations

The amendments clarify that, when an entity obtains control of a business that is a joint operation, it applies the requirements for a business combination achieved in stages, including remeasuring previously held interests in the assets and liabilities of the joint operation at fair value. In doing so, the acquirer remeasures its entire previously held interest in the joint operation.

An entity applies those amendments to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with early application permitted.

These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group as there is no transaction where a joint control is obtained.

IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements

A party that participates in, but does not have joint control of, a joint operation might obtain joint control of the joint operation in which the activity of the joint operation constitutes a business as defined in IFRS 3. The amendments clarify that the previously held interests in that joint operation are not remeasured.

An entity applies those amendments to transactions in which it obtains joint control on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with early application permitted.

These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group as there is no transaction where a joint control is obtained.

IAS 12 Income Taxes

The amendments clarify that the income tax consequences of dividends are linked more directly to past transactions or events that generated distributable profits than to distributions to owners. Therefore, an entity recognises the income tax consequences of dividends in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or equity according to where it originally recognised those past transactions or events.

An entity applies the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with early application permitted. When the entity first applies those amendments, it applies them to the income tax consequences of dividends recognised on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative

period. Since the Group's current practice is in line with these amendments, they had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

IAS 23 Borrowing Costs

The amendments clarify that an entity treats as part of general borrowings any borrowing originally made to develop a qualifying asset when substantially all of the activities necessary to prepare that asset for its intended use or sale are complete.

The entity applies the amendments to borrowing costs incurred on or after the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies those amendments. An entity applies those amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019, with early application permitted.

Since the Group's current practice is in line with these amendments, they had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.

2.2 LIST OF EQUITY-ACCOUNTED INVESTMENTS

NAME Country of incorporation Equity ownership (%) Change in %
ownership over

Cyclhad SAS France 33.33% -
PharmaLogic Pet Services of Montreal Cie Canada 48.00% -
Normandy Hadrontherapy SAS France 41.84% +41.84%
Normandy Hadrontherapy SARL France 50.00% +50.00%

In June 2019, IBA ownership in Normandy Hadrontherapy SAS changed following the agreement signed to transfer intellectual property to this entity to further develop Hadrontherapy. IBA retains 41.84 % (100% as at December 31, 2018) of this entity following financing by several public and private players.

The equity accounted investments do not contribute to the Group's results as of June 30, 2018 and 2019. This is explained by the fact that IBA does not account for its share of the loss in Cyclhad SAS above its investment (no commitment or intention to participate in capital increase if any). In addition, operations at Normandy Hadrontherapy SAS have not yet started.

2.3 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND OTHER CHANGES IN THE COMPOSITION OF IBA GROUP

2.3.1 ACQUISITIONS OF COMPANIES

No acquisition of company was completed during the 6 first months of 2019.

2.3.2 DISPOSAL OF COMPANIES

No disposal of company was completed during the 6 first months of 2019.

3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. We present below estimates and assumptions that could cause a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

3.1 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On the 20 July 2018, IBA announced that it has decided to explore new strategic alternatives for IBA Dosimetry which could include a sale, merger, initial public offering, or retention of the business. Following the announcement, IBA has initiated the disposal process and as of 31 December 2018 and June 30, 2019, it has determined that all criteria of IFRS 5 has been met and are still in order to present the assets and liabilities IBA Dosimetry as held for sale.

Consequently, IBA has presented those assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position on a separate line items as "Assets held for sale" and "Liabilities directly related to assets held for sale" as of 31 December 2018 and June 30, 2019.

As IBA Dosimetry was presented as a separate operating segment, management concluded that it also meets the criteria of discontinued operations. Consequently, the results of this component have been presented for the mid-year 2019 financial year as "Profit/(loss) from discontinued operations" in the income statement and IBA also represented the comparative period for the financial year 2018 has discontinued operations.

3.2 INCOME TAX – DEFERRED TAX

The Group recognizes deferred tax assets on unused losses carried forward to the extent that the taxable profit against which these assets are available can be used. The amounts recognized in the financial position are prudent estimates made on the basis of recent financial plans approved by the Board of Directors and depend on certain judgments with respect to the amounts and location of the future taxable profits of the Group's subsidiaries and parent company.

The June 30, 2019 income statement was positively impacted by the increase of deferred tax assets on temporary differences in the United-States for EUR 0.1 million.

As at June 30, 2019, the Group had accumulated net operating losses of EUR 109.9 million usable to offset future profits taxable mainly in Belgium and in Russia and temporary differences amounting to EUR 8.5 million mainly in the United States and in China. The Company recognized deferred tax assets of EUR 4.30 million with a view to use the tax losses carried forward and EUR 2.00 million as temporary differences.

The negative result of June 30, 2019 does not significantly affect the existing budgeted plan and there is therefore no indicator that would trigger the reassessment of the deferred tax assets.

3.3 REVENUE RECOGNITION

IFRS 15 supersedes IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue and related Interpretations and it applies, with limited exceptions, to all revenue arising from contracts with its customers.

IFRS 15 establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Under IFRS 15, revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The standard requires applying significant judgement to account for the revenue which is provided by IBA under note 3 (C) of its annual report 2018.

The Group has applied IFRS 15 using the modified retrospective method by recognizing the initially applying IFRS 15 as an adjustment to the opening balance of equity at January 1, 2018.

At the first-time application, the Group has developed new accounting policies for the application of IFRS 15 which are discussed below. The following sections cover a description of the significant changes and quantitative impact of those changes:

Equipment and installation services:

The main activity of the Group consists of realizing and constructing proton-therapy equipment and arrange the installation services for its customers. Such contracts with customers are referred as equipment and installation services, it represents the most important portion of IBA's revenue and are presented in the income statement as "Sales".

The equipment and installation services are always contracted and sold as a bundle package which is because the equipment is so specialized nature that only IBA can provide the installation services to the customers. As a result, IBA promises relate to the transfer of a combined output integrating both the promised equipment and relating installation services. The Group determined that due to the nature of its promises, the equipment and installation services contract have to be considered as one performance obligation.

In connection with the timing of the revenue recognition the Group assessed that its performance creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created. Therefore, the Group recognizes revenue over time by measuring the progress using the input method on the basis of the costs incurred which are compared to the total expected cost of the project (formerly referred as "percentage of completion").

Operation and maintenance services

In addition to the equipment and installation services, the Group provides operation and maintenance services (reported as "Services") which relate to the daily functioning and maintenance activity of the proton therapy centers once those have been transferred to the customer. For these contracts, the revenue recognition occurs over time using the straight-line revenue recognition method because IBA considers that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit and its efforts are expended evenly throughout the performance period that is the term of the contract.

Transaction price

Under the equipment and installation services and the operation and maintenance services, IBA considers the terms of the contract and its customary business practices to determine the transaction price. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised bundle package or services to a customer. IBA's contract with the customers typically does not contain variable amounts and the financing component is also considered to be nonsignificant.

Contract assets

A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If the Group performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration or before payment is due which is typically the case for the equipment and installation services, a contract asset is recognized for the earned consideration that is conditional. IBA presents the contract assets as part of "Inventories and contract in progress".

Trade receivables

A receivable represents the IBA's right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration is due) which are presented as "Trade receivables".

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before IBA transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognized when the payment is made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Group performs under the contract. IBA presents its contract liabilities as "Other payables".

3.4 ESTIMATING THE VALUE IN USE OF INTANGIBLE AND TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS

When management considers that there is a risk of impairment, the recoverable amounts of tangible and intangible fixed assets are determined on a "value in use" basis. Value in use is determined on the basis of cash-flows coming from IBA's most recent business plans, as approved by the Board of Directors. These plans incorporate various assumptions made by management and approved by the Board as to how the business, profit margins, and investments will evolve.

The negative result of June 30, 2019 does not significantly affect the existing budgeted plan and there is therefore no indicator that would trigger an impairment test as of June 30, 2019.

3.5 LOCAL TAXES IN COUNTRIES OTHER THAN BELGIUM

In 2015, the Company initiated an analysis on the Group exposure in countries other than Belgium to be potentially obliged to pay certain local taxes whereas the payment of those taxes has been transferred to the Group's customers. Exposure identified as of December 31, 2015, was been reduced as a result of further investigation performed in 2016 and 2017. Based on the data available, it is still not possible to make a reliable estimate of the remaining exposure and therefore no provision has been accrued for in the Group financial statements.

3.6 FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES – ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The assets and liabilities of the Group are valued as follows:

At December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2019, the net carrying value of these financial assets and liabilities did not differ significantly from their fair value.

The headings "Hedging derivative products" and "Derivative products – other" in assets and liabilities include the fair value of forward exchange contracts and currency swaps.

The Group may acquire non-controlling interests from third companies, depending on the evolution of its strategy. Equity investments included in ''Other investments'' relate primarily to Proton Partners International (PPI) (Level 1 in 2019 following introduction on a quoted market) and HIL Applied Medical Ltd (Level 3).

3.7 CATEGORIES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In conformity with IFRS 9 all derivatives are recognized at fair value in the financial position.

The fair value of derivative financial instruments is either the quoted market price or is calculated using pricing models taking into account current market rates. Fair values of hedging instruments are determined by valuation techniques widely used in financial markets and are provided by reliable financial information sources. Fair values are based on the trade dates of the underlying transactions.

The fair value of these instruments generally reflects the estimated amount that IBA would receive on the settlement of favorable contracts or be required to pay to terminate unfavorable contracts at the balance sheet date, and thereby takes into account any unrealized gains or losses on open contracts.

As required by IFRS 13 Fair value measurement, the following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable.

  • ➢ Level 1 : fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  • ➢ Level 2 : fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
  • ➢ Level 3 : fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques for which the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable.

During the 6 first months of the year, there was no transfer between the various categories for the financial instruments existing as of June 30, 2019.

New financial instruments were acquired and are classified in level 2.

4. OPERATING SEGMENTS

IBA identified its Management Team as its CODM (Chief Operating Decision Maker) because this is the committee that decides how to allocate resources and assesses performance of the components of the Group.

On the basis of its internal financial reports to the Board of Directors and given the Group's primary source of risk and profitability, IBA has identified two levels of operating information:

  • ➢ Operating segment-based information (Level 1);
  • ➢ Entity wide disclosure information (Level 2) not presented in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

4.1 OPERATING SEGMENTS

The operating segments are defined based on the information provided to the Management Team. On the basis of its internal financial reports and given the Group's primary source of risk and profitability, IBA has identified two operating segments. In accordance with IFRS 8 Operating segments, the business segments on which segment information is based are (1) Proton therapy and other accelerators and (2) Dosimetry.

Distinct financial information is available for these reporting segments and is used by the Management Team to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance.

However, following the decision to present Dosimetry as held for sale, Proton therapy and other accelerators is the only business segment that will be reported in this consolidated financial statement as operating segment.

Proton therapy and other accelerators: This segment constitutes the technological basis of the Group's many businesses and encompasses development, fabrication, and services associated with medical and industrial particle accelerators and proton therapy systems.

The segment results, assets and liabilities include the items directly related to a segment, as well as those that may be allocated on a reasonable basis.

The segment investment expenses include the total cost of investments incurred during the period of acquisition of tangible and intangible assets investments, except goodwill.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

5.1 BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings are calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to the Company shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares

outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of ordinary shares excludes shares purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares.

BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE June 30, 2018 June 30, 2019
Earnings attributable to parent equity holders (EUR 000) -7 015 -5 317
Weighted average number of ordinary shares 29 299 475 29 448 157
Basic earnings per share from continuing and discontinued operations (EUR per share) -0.2394 -0.1806

Weighted average number of ordinary shares 29 299 475 29 448 157

Weighted average number of ordinary shares 29 299 475 29 448 157
Basic earnings per share from discontinued operations (EUR per share) 0.0226 0.0665

5.2 DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. In 2014, the Company had two categories of potential dilutive ordinary shares: stock options and the SRIW reverse convertible bond. Since end 2015, the Company has only one category of potential dilutive ordinary shares: stock options.

The calculation is performed for the stock options to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined as the average annual market share price of the Company's shares) based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding stock options. The number of shares calculated as above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the stock options.

Earnings from discontinued operations attributable to parent equity holders (EUR 000) 662 1 959
Diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations (EUR per share) 0.0226 0.0665

(*) In compliance with IAS33, which stipulates that the diluted earnings per share does not take into account assumptions for conversion, financial year, or other issuing of potential ordinary shares which may have an anti-dilutive effect on the earnings per share (shares whose conversion involves a decrease in the loss per share).

6. OTHER SELECTED DISCLOSURES

6.1 SEASONALITY OR CYCLICALITY OF INTERIM OPERATIONS

IBA's business is not subject to any seasonal or cyclical effect.

6.2 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On July 20, 2018, IBA announced that it has decided to explore new strategic alternatives for IBA Dosimetry which could include a sale, merger, initial public offering, or retention of the business. Following the announcement, IBA initiated a disposal process and as of December 31, 2018 it has determined that all criteria of IFRS 5 have been met in order to present the assets and liabilities IBA Dosimetry as held-for-sale.

Consequently, IBA presented those assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position on a separate line items as "Assets held-for-sale" and "Liabilities directly related to assets held-for-sale" as of December 31, 2018.

As IBA Dosimetry was presented as a separate operating segment, management concluded that it also meets the criteria of discontinued operations.

Discussions are ongoing and consequently, the June 30, 2019 results of this segment continue to be presented as "Profit/(loss) from discontinued operations" in the income statement. The comparative 2018 results have also been presented as "Profit/(loss) from discontinued operations".

The Company expects to inform the market of the outcome of these discussions before year end.

6.6.1 BANK AND OTHER BORROWINGS

1 Including 2 subordinated loans and 1 bond for EUR 17.14 million from S.R.I.W. and 1 subordinated bond of EUR 5 million from S.F.P.I. at June 2019.

S.R.I.W. and S.F.P.I.

The S.R.I.W. and S.F.P.I. are two leading public (respectively, regional and federal) investment funds.

In 2012, IBA obtained a long-term amortizing credit facility of EUR 20 million from S.R.I.W. (EUR 8.57 million outstanding as at June 30, 2019). Under the terms of this financing, the Group agreed to comply with specific covenants relating to IBA SA's level of equity.

On June 30, 2014, a bond was subscribed by S.R.I.W. for EUR 5 million (EUR 3.57 million outstanding as at June 30, 2019).

In March 2018, IBA obtained new subordinated bonds of EUR 5 million from the S.R.I.W. and S.F.P.I. to strengthen its financial position in the context of the increase of its short-term bank credit lines (see below). These loans are repayable bullet at maturity (on December 31, 2021). Following the terms of the S.F.P.I. borrowing, the Group agreed to comply with specific covenants relating to IBA SA's level of equity.

Credit facilities

At December 31, 2017, IBA had short-term credit facilities with 3 leading Belgian banks, amounting to EUR 10 million each. On March 9, 2018, these banks together agreed to confirm these revolving credit facilities for a period of 3 years, and to increase the amount thereof from EUR 10 million to EUR 20 million each (i.e. from EUR 30 million to EUR 60 million in aggregate) until September 30, 2019. As at June 30, 2019, the credit facilities are used for an amount of EUR 33 million (EUR 36 million in December 2018).

In the third quarter of 2018, these short-term credit lines were complemented by an additional EUR 7 million facility from another international bank established in Belgium in order to further improve the Group's financial flexibility.

IBA is currently in ongoing discussions with its financial institutions in order to restructure its borrowings and replace part of its short-term credit lines with longer term lines, thus reducing its dependence on short term lines to buffer large working capital variations. It expects these discussions to be completed before year-end.

In addition, the Group has a bank overdraft facility at a subsidiary for EUR 1.82 million (of which EUR 0.74 million is used as at June 30, 2019).

Treasury notes

In February 2016, IBA issued private 5-year treasury notes for a total subscribed amount of EUR 5.75 million. These notes are to be repaid in a single instalment in February 2021. At December 31, 2017, they were reclassified to "short term borrowings", pending the outcome of discussions with the noteholders on a waiver of financial covenants.

In 2018, the majority of the noteholders had accepted the waiver of financial covenants as at December 31, 2017, and an amount of EUR 0.5 million was repaid to a noteholder. In addition, the financial covenants (calculated on the same consolidation scope as 2017: Proton Therapy and other accelerators & Dosimetry) applying to these treasury notes were respected at December 31, 2018. As a result, the outstanding amount of EUR 5.25 million has been reclassified to "long term borrowings as at December 31, 2018.

Bank borrowings

In April 2016, IBA borrowed EUR 10 million from a Belgian bank. This bank loan is repayable in 20 quarterly instalments equal in principal, starting end of July 2016 and ending in April 2021. Repayments have been made for EUR 1 million in 2019 and the outstanding loan as at June 30, 2019 amounts to EUR 4 million.

Utilized credit facilities are as follows:

Covenants

All the above facilities are subject to several financing covenants.

Financial covenants applying to the credit facilities with 3 banks are based on (a) a maximum net leverage ratio (calculated as the net senior indebtedness of the Group divided by its adjusted REBITDA over the last 12 months) and (b) a minimum corrected equity level (calculated as the sum of the Group's equity and its subordinated indebtedness). Covenants were complied with as at June 30, 2019.

The financial covenants applying to the treasury notes are only calculated at year-end.

Despite the fact that Dosimetry is presented as a discontinued operation, in agreement with its bankers' covenant requirements, Management has added back Dosimetry REBITDA to the covenant calculations, as Dosimetry is still part of the Group at June 30, 2019.

As at June 30, 2019, the Group has at its disposal credit facilities up to EUR 100.22 million of which 65.0% are used to date.

7.2 OPERATING REVIEW

IBA is focused on creating a global proton therapy platform that is built for the long term through continuous upgradability. Its product offering of compact and multi-room solutions is optimally positioned to capture the projected growth of the proton therapy market.

IBA's growth strategy is focused around three axes: 1) growing the proton therapy market by encouraging the adoption and awareness of proton therapy, including through education and facilitating the generation of robust supporting data, 2) increasing IBA's market share by focusing on system performance, future technology developments including Flash therapy, significant Proton Therapy and Other Accelerator sales from new prospects and backlog conversion of the strong order intake in 2018

  • ➢ EUR 1.1 billion equipment and service backlog, up more than 12%
  • ➢ Total operating expenses up 6% to EUR 36.1 million, reflecting targeted R&D investment including in ARC and Flash therapy research
  • ➢ REBIT loss of EUR -7.1 million versus EUR -6.2 million in the prior year, reflecting a slower Proton Therapy backlog conversion in H1, pricing pressure from competition and increased investment in R&D. The REBITDA line in the period was positively impacted by an IFRS16 adjustment of EUR 1.9 million.
  • ➢ REBIT margin of -6.9% (H1 2018: -6.8%)
  • ➢ Dosimetry (discontinued operation) net profit EUR 2.0 million, up 195.9% (H1 2018: EUR 0.7
  • ➢ million), driven by strong sales and cost controls, and REBIT up 66%. The division remains held for sale
  • ➢ Gross cash of EUR 20.3 million (including cash from Dosimetry for EUR 1.4 million) and net debt position of EUR -58.1 million (excluding impact of IFRS16)

speed of delivery and reducing cost and 3) growing service revenues thanks to the strong increase in our PT installed base. IBA will continue to work on customer satisfaction and the profitability of services by further enhancing its range of services as well as the efficiency of the solutions on offer.

This strategy is underpinned by our strong global network of partnerships and collaborations which is central to IBA being able to provide a full spectrum proton therapy offering that will remove barriers to adoption and enable further acceptance and market growth.

PROTON THERAPY AND OTHER ACCELERATORS

Total net sales were up 13.8% in the first half to EUR 102.8 million, predominantly due to a strong first half for Proton Therapy service revenues and Other Accelerators, both in terms of new sales and backlog conversion of last year's strong order intake. While Proton Therapy overall revenues were up slightly by 3.1%, equipment revenues were down by 8.5% due to the late impact of order intake in the period and slower backlog conversion in the first half. A significant second half weighting is expected, when two major Proteus®PLUS installations are expected to start and more than ten rooms are expected to be delivered to customers.

IBA was selected in April to install a five-room ProteusPlus system in Shenzhen, China and the contract was signed by both parties before the end of period. Although the down payment has not yet been received, it is expected that this will occur very soon and therefore, in line with IFRS, the contract has been financially activated and revenue recognition has been initiated as of H1 2019.

There are currently 24 projects under construction or installation, comprising 16 Proteus®ONE and eight Proteus®PLUS solutions.

Services revenue continues to increase, with sales up 13% compared to the same period in 2018. Services accounted for 48.2% of segment revenues, as three new Proton Therapy contracts started delivering operations and maintenance revenues in H1 2019.

Other Accelerators equipment revenues were up 121%, reflecting a strong order intake in 2018 and good backlog conversion over the period. Other Accelerators service revenues remained high, boosted by recognition of revenues on multiple high margin upgrades and maintenance services.

REBIT margin was impacted negatively by a weakened gross margin as a result of price pressure on contracts as competitors attempt to gain market share. In spite of this, all contracts remain profit-making and the Company is currently working on further optimizing installation time on its systems and improving overall service margins.

REBIT margin was also impacted by a 6% increase in operating expenses, which was predominantly due to an uplift in R&D as we invested in several major projects in the period such as Arc and Flash therapies. This is in line with the Company's strategic objective of focusing on innovative technologies to deliver future growth. General & Administrative (G&A) and Sales & Marketing (S&M) expenses were broadly similar to the same period last year, despite inflation and several one-off cost saving measures taken in 2018. We remain committed to these ongoing cost control measures, which have been successfully implemented so far, whilst maintaining strategic initiatives.

In June, IBA signed an agreement with several public and private investors to transfer its intellectual property to a dedicated company for further development of hadron therapy (including Carbon Therapy). The agreement generated a EUR 2.9 million gain on sale of the intangible assets. IBA will retain 41.84 % of the entity following completion of financing by the investors.

Proton therapy market

Although signing and financing of new contracts continues to be difficult to forecast, IBA saw a strong order intake across all business lines in the first half, with proton therapy demand increasing in 2019. The longer-term fundamentals of the proton therapy market are solid, and the Company continues to have a growing and high-quality backlog and strong pipeline with multiple prospects across different markets.

To date over 190,000 patients have been treated with proton therapy worldwide and, of these, 56% have been treated on IBA systems, which is more than all the installations of its competitors combined. This is a testimony to its superior offering in the proton therapy space.

Future technological advancements

IBA remains focused on future technological breakthroughs in the proton therapy field to accelerate the adoption of proton therapy.

IBA hosted its 8th Annual IBA Proton Therapy Users Meeting in Miami, USA, in February. This year IBA welcomed more than 165 participants, representing 40 sites from 17 countries, making IBA's proton therapy community the largest and most experienced in the industry.

In April, the second meeting of the Victoria Advisory Committee took place, which saw a gathering of clinical experts from the world's leading cancer centers specializing in radiation and proton therapy together with IBA. During the meeting the participants worked together to define future roadmaps, establish a framework to increase treatment efficiency as well as discussing how to simplify clinical adoption easy for technologies such Arc therapy, Adaptive technology and Flash therapy. IBA will host the third Victoria Advisory Committee in September 2019, at the ASTRO Annual Meeting.

Research and Development

IBA's research program is centred on three axes: motion management, proton Arc therapy and Flash therapy, with a continued focus on upgradability.

Arc therapy has the potential to allow proton therapy practitioners to improve dose conformity at the tumor while further reducing the dose to surrounding healthy tissue. In addition, it has the potential to make treatment easier to deliver for practitioners. During the first half, IBA delivered the first irradiation of a Spot Scanning Proton Arc (SPArc) plan at the Beaumont Health Proton Therapy Center on its single-room proton therapy solution Proteus®ONE. IBA has seen significant interest from the market in its Arc technology, which will be added in the IBA catalogue of products when ready.

IBA is particularly excited by the potential of Flash proton therapy, which could dramatically change the landscape of radiotherapy and patient cancer care, by making proton therapy more effective, cheaper and therefore more accessible. Flash irradiation delivers a high dose of radiation at an ultra-high dose rate, resulting in less toxicity and potentially shortening treatment time from 6-8 weeks to 1-2 weeks.

IBA's equipment is Flash ready and IBA is the only company to have demonstrated a Flash compatible dose rate delivery in a clinical environment. In March the Company successfully performed the first Flash irradiation in a Proteus®PLUS treatment room at the University Medical Centre Groningen (UMCG) in the Netherlands and then in June the first procedure was performed in a Proteus®ONE compact gantry treatment room at the Rutherford Cancer Centre Thames Valley in Reading, United Kingdom. With this demonstrated leadership in Flash technology on both single and multi-room solutions, IBA will continue its commitment to further develop the technology alongside partnering opportunities within the user community.

Customer Service

IBA continues to provide the quickest installation in the market, which enables customers to reduce costs and deliver an optimum business model. This is evidenced by the latest installation in Reading, United Kingdom, which was completed in ten months. IBA remains focused on further reducing installation time on our systems, allowing our customers to treat patients as soon as possible. IBA continues to enhance its range of services as well as the efficiency of the solutions on offer.

In the first half, Dosimetry sales were up 4% versus H1 2018, due to growth of conventional radiation therapy sales and a strong EMEA market. Tight cost controls helped to deliver REBIT of EUR 2.7 million, a 66% increase from the prior year.

In June 2019 IBA Dosimetry launched myQA® iON, a fast and accurate cancer patient QA in proton therapy.

The Dosimetry division remains held for sale at the end of June 2019, as discussions on its future are ongoing. It is therefore included in the P&L as a discontinued operation.

Financial review

Numbers below exclude Dosimetry figures, following the classification of the division as an Asset Held for Sale.

IBA reported revenues of EUR 102.8 million, up 13.8% (H1 2018: EUR 90.4 million), driven by significant Proton Therapy and Other Accelerator sales from new prospects and backlog conversion of the strong order intake in 2018, coupled with continuing growth in services.

The Company's recurring operating loss before interest and taxes (REBIT) line showed a loss of EUR -7.1 million from EUR -6.2 million in H1 2018, impacted by a weakened gross margin as a result of the price pressure on new proton therapy contracts and investment in innovative projects such as Flash and Arc. The REBIT line in the period was positively impacted by an IFRS16 adjustment of EUR 0.1 million while REBITDA was positively impacted by EUR 1.9 million.

Other operating income was EUR 1.7 million (H1 2018: expense of EUR 1.6 million), which mainly included reorganizational costs as well as profit from the reversal of a large accrual for a project-related risk and the sale of intellectual property related to hadron therapy.

Net financial expenses amounted to EUR 0.7 million in H1 2019 compared EUR 0.2 million a year earlier, mainly due to fluctuations in the US dollar and interest on credit lines set up in March last year.

Discontinued operations include Dosimetry, which had sales of EUR 25.3 million (H1 2018: EUR 24.3 million), driven by growth of conventional radiation therapy sales and a strong EMEA market. Tight cost controls helped to deliver REBIT of EUR 2.7 million, a 66% increase from the prior year.

Cash flow from operations continued to show an improving trend from H1 2018, with operating cashflow up to EUR 3.3 million, (compared to negative EUR 18.5 million at the end of 2018 and negative EUR 26.6 million at end of H1 2018) boosted by strong collection on customer receivables and sustained inventory buildup to deliver the strong order intake in Other Accelerators.

Cash flow from investing fell to negative EUR 8.8 million versus negative EUR 1.3 million in H1 2018 and mostly included amounts related to commitments on capital and loan increases in an investment for the development of hadron therapy. CAPEX was significantly reduced to EUR 3.4 million, reflecting the continued cost control measures after the investments in the new production facilities and offices in 2018.

Cash flow from financing was negative EUR 12.7 million in H1 2019 (positive EUR 37.8 million in H1 2018) reflecting a reduction of drawdowns on credit lines and reimbursement on long-term borrowings, including the leasing of the new production facilities. It also included interest payments on the same facilities.

IBA had a cash position of EUR 20.3 million at the end of H1 2019 (including cash from dosimetry for EUR 1.4 million) compared to EUR 38.6 million at the end of 2018. The net debt position rose to EUR 58.1 million (excluding the impact of IFRS16), reflecting the overall increase in borrowings to absorb working capital requirements.

IBA currently remains well financed to advance its strategic objectives and grow the business. The company is currently in discussions with financial institutions in order to restructure its borrowings and replace part of its short-term credit lines with longer term lines, thus reducing its dependence on short term lines to buffer large working capital variations. It expects these discussions to be completed before year-end.

Outlook and guidance

IBA reiterates its outlook given at the time of its first quarter 2019 Business Update and 2018 Full Year Results

Based on the current market outlook, IBA continues to anticipate a positive REBIT for full-year 2019, driven by a significant second-half weighting. A high level of activity is anticipated for H2 with installation starting for two large systems (six rooms), high production activity on its Other Accelerators backlog, more than ten Proton Therapy rooms being delivered to customers and related service revenues ramping up.

The fundamentals of the proton therapy market continue to be solid, as demonstrated by the numerous prospects IBA is pursuing across all global markets and the quality of its equipment and service backlog. However, the market continues to show signs of lumpiness and to address this IBA remains focused on driving growth whilst absorbing the unpredictability through continued cost controls and maintaining the world's most competitive and attractive proton therapy offering.

7.3 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On August 5, 2019, IBA announced the signature of a formal contract with the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) to install a Cyclone® 70 system in Daejeon, South Korea. The installation of the system is worth between USD 13 and USD 16 million to IBA and the project is fully financed.

Glossary of Alternative Performance Measures (APM)

GROSS PROFIT
Definition: Gross profit is the difference of the aggregate amount recognized on "Sales" and "Services" after
deducting the costs associated with the construction and production of the associated equipment
and incurred in connection with the provision of the operation and maintenance services.
Reason: Gross profit indicates IBA's performance by showing how it is able to generate revenue from the
expenses incurred in the construction, operation and maintenance of proton-therapy and other
accelerators.
EBIT
Definition: Earning before interests and taxes, EBIT shows the performance of the group (or segment) before
financial income/expenses and taxes which shows all income and expense incurred during the
period.
Reason: EBIT is a useful performance indicator as it shows IBA's operational performance of the period by
eliminating the impact of the financial transactions and taxes.
REBIT
Definition: Recurring earning before interests and taxes, REBIT shows the result of the group (or segment)
before financial income/expenses and taxes and before the other operating income and other
operating expenses. REBIT is an indicator of a company's profitability of the ordinary activities of
the group, adjusted with the items considered by the management to not be part of the underlying
performance.
Reason: Management considers REBIT as an improved performance indicator for the group allowing year
on-year comparison of the profitability, as cleaned up with transactions not considered part of the
underlying performance.
NET FINANCIAL DEBT
Definition: The net financial debt measures the overall debt situation of IBA.
Reason: Net financial debt provides an indication of the overall balance sheet strength of the Group and
measures IBA's cash position.
