Neil Campbell, Chief Executive Officer, said today:

"The first half of this financial year changed dramatically following the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and with further lock-downs in China.  These two events had an impact on supply chain and sales in our first half.  Needless to say, the team has worked hard to ensure the business is in the best shape it could be, prioritising solutions to short term supply issues and offsetting delayed NHS orders by focussing on other areas of our portfolio. With production transferred to our new state-of-the-art manufacturing and technology centre, a comprehensive and diverse range of products and a strong order book, I have been impressed with the resilience of team and of our business model.  This resilience, along with the investment we have made in our infrastructure, stand us in good stead for the remainder of the financial year and for the longer term."

Chairman's Statement

We knew the first half of the year would be different from our original plans shortly after the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the continued lockdowns in China due to Covid-19.  However, as a company we have always been resilient in our business and adaptable in our approach to challenges.  Our team shifted focus to ensure supply chains were robust and secure along with ensuring our markets for products closer to home were prioritised in our regulatory and R&D teams with sales management focusing on products where we knew budgets were available. We therefore remain confident of achieving market expectations in terms of profitability for the current financial year.

Sales in the first half of the financial year did not meet our initial expectations but given the global macro-economic conditions with rising inflation and economic uncertainty, we believe that a first half performance similar to last year was a reasonable outcome.  Our product mix was different from what we had expected at the beginning of the year, but we are confident that we have the range of products in our portfolio to ensure we can offer customers the products they need in the second half, with opportunities delayed not lost.  Recent orders from Japan for over £600,000 give us confidence that the opportunities we are aware of will be realised in the second half, as we expected at the time of our AGM statement.

Moving into our new Manufacturing and Technology Centre just 2.5 miles away from our existing South London site has been a significant achievement for the Group.  This new facility designed with sustainability in mind, not only increases our capacity for capital equipment manufacturing significantly but does so in an efficient way with an improved flow through production.  The sustainable initiatives also allow us to continue on our own journey towards net zero by adopting low energy heating and lighting, utilising solar power and of course, ensuring that the needs for our staff are met with a modern working environment.  I am pleased to say that the team, despite the challenges in the construction industry, moved in seamlessly with only one day of lost production and importantly no accidents - a remarkable achievement.

Financial Review

Revenue for the six months to 31 July 2022 totalled £20.5 million (H1 2021/22: £20.9 million).  This is reflective of customer ordering patterns impacted by the current economic uncertainties resulting in expected full year revenue to be more significantly second half weighted than in prior years.

Revenue from Branded Products accounted for 54% of revenue totalling £11.0 million (H1 2021/22: £11.5 million) impacted by changing customer ordering patterns as previously stated.  Revenue from Distributed Products accounted for 37% of revenue totalling £7.7 million (H1 2021/22: £7.1 million) driven by increased revenue in the Group's Infusion Therapy business.  Revenue from Technology Support accounted for 8% of revenue totalling £1.6 million (H1 2021/22: £2.3 million) the decrease primarily due to the anticipated loss of service contracts for the distributed Acutronic brand as a result of the acquisition of SLE Limited.

Gross Margin totalled 45.1%, compared to 52.5% in the equivalent period, the decrease primarily due to product mix.  Component cost increases also had an effect on Gross Margin but buying forward of key components should minimise further cost increases.

It is expected that the proportion of revenue from Branded Products will increase during the second half as known opportunities for higher value products are realised thereby improving Gross Margin.

Operating Profit 1,049 2,598 4,255

Operating profit for the period under review was £1.1 million, a decrease of 60% over the equivalent period of the previous financial year primarily as a result of decreased Gross Margin due to product mix.

Administrative expenses totalled £8.2 million (H1 2021/22: £8.4 million) reflecting continued rigorous cost control.

EBITDA1 amounted to £2.2 million, a decrease of 39% over the equivalent period of the previous financial year.

Investment in R&D (combined capitalised and expensed) amounted to approximately 8% of revenue in the first half as previously stated due to outsourced R&D projects as we look to bring next generation products to market alongside new features on our existing product range.

Adjusting for non-trading items and amortisation of intangible assets acquired through business combinations, underlying diluted earnings per share was 2.0p (H1 2021/22: 3.7p). (Please see note 6 to the unaudited interim financial statements for more information).

Cash as at 31 July 2022 was £3.3 million, a net outflow of £6.2 million. The outflow is primarily due to both a significant investment in the Group's new Manufacturing and Technology Centre of £4.0 million and an increase in inventory of £2.3 million (to £8.7 million) in order to secure critical components for second half production and demand. The level of inventory is expected to decrease during the second half of the year as revenue for Branded Products increases. The £5 million RCF remains in place and is available to be utilised should the Group require.

Operational Review

Throughout the first half of this financial year, we have been more and more aware of the impending changes to regulatory status of our products in the EU and the UK.  The changes to the EU regulations are widely known as our industry migrates from the Medical Device Directive to the Medical Device Regulations, but the strain on companies to undertake new work to ensure compliance should not be underestimated with Test Houses and Notified Bodies advising manufacturers to submit Technical Files as early as possible to ensure there is adequate time to review and issue certificates before May 2024 when existing certificates expire.  Additionally, our team has been working hard to prepare for the new UKCA mark in our home market which requires compliance by June 2023.

Supply chain issues have also been a focus for us, as we continue to feel pressure from suppliers not being able to deliver components when they were expected.  Despite reaching further into our supply chain and working with our suppliers, we have taken the prudent decision to increase stock levels of critical components to prevent supply disruption.  We have not only increased component stock but also finished goods stock, especially that of accessories to our products.  We do not want to be in a situation where we cannot ship a large order because we are waiting for low value third party accessories.

We have also been focused further on opportunities closer to home.  We had previously changed the focus of how we manage our infusion therapy business and this has really allowed the portfolio to flourish with sales running ahead of the same period last year.  We are also pushing into therapy areas that had previously been on the periphery and we are seeing some early penetration into the areas of pain management and chemotherapy.

We also launched the Genedrive point of care test, the first point of care genetic test used to influence neonatal management in an acute setting and reduce aminoglycoside induced hearing loss.   This new test allows neonatologists to prescribe a different drug to those at-risk babies.  Whilst this is a distributed product, it fits very well with our strategy to be at the forefront of neonatal medicine. 

In R&D, Project Wave, our novel device that we believe could not only help reduce the impact of apnoea of prematurity but reduce its occurrence, has now recruited 14 patients and the trial's Data and Safety Monitoring Committee are reviewing the data.  We hope that the trial will finish recruiting in 2022 allowing us to determine the next steps for the technology.  Elsewhere, we have made progress in R&D despite the component shortage and the backlog in test houses to undertake safety tests to allow us to prepare Technical Files for regulatory filings for the new UK and EU medical device regulations. 

Dividend Declaration

We can confirm our interim dividend payment will remain at the same level of H1 2021 at 0.205p per share. This will be payable to shareholders on the register on 25 November 2022 and paid on 28 December 2022.

Outlook

The first half has been a difficult six months across our sector, with macro-economic conditions changing our initial thoughts on what the year would hold.  However, our company has always been resilient and we have been agile in our ability to manage situations and we are pleased that we have a robust product portfolio that allows us to continue to engage with our customers. With the investment we have made in infrastructure, people and systems, we are confident that Inspiration Healthcare is well placed to perform strongly, regardless of market conditions, in the longer term.

Interest in our products remains and our order book is strong.  Global uncertainties could mean that some sales may fall into the next financial year; however, our expectations of profit for the current financial year remain unchanged.
