• Q-linea received a letter of intent (LOI) from a large market-leading company for the evaluation and potential commercialisation of Podler.
• Q-linea has reached an agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific to end the exclusive global distribution agreement for ASTar instruments and consumables.
After the end of the third quarter, we reached an agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific to terminate the exclusive global distribution agreement for ASTar instruments and consumables. Thermo Fisher Scientific's ambition and long-term strategy in diagnostics have changed during the year, and the company will focus on its core media business.
As ASTar gets closer to approval and launch on the US market, Q-linea will take control of marketing and distribution on the important US market. Q-linea intends to approach the markets in Europe and USA with both an extended own commercial team as well as with partners.
Q-linea and Thermo Fisher Scientific will continue to cooperate on the numerous evaluations being performed by potential customers, both those currently in progress and those starting up, as well as with commercial customers. Thermo Fishers has prepared the market and we will take over the pipeline of potential customers that has been built. The reference testing partnership for clinical studies will continue as before. Naturally, the aim is for the transition from Thermo Fisher Scientific to Q-linea to be as smooth as possible for our customers.
Of course, it's Thermo Fisher's change in strategy is regrettable. At the same time, customer interactions during our period of cooperation mean we have evolved significantly on the commercial front and now have a clear idea of what needs to be done to succeed in the years to come. I look forward to building a company with a clearer focus on selling its own products, which will create significant future value. We have also seen continued strong interest in our products from other major companies in the market and will now be able to fully follow up on these discussions in the best interests of our shareholders.
Despite our confident outlook, this change of strategy together with the Covid-19 pandemic impact on customers' purchasing decisions in 2022, means we will adjust previous sales estimate of 20 ASTar systems for 2022 to around 10 and will not see this turn around until 2023.
We are seeing many customers request comparative studies between ASTar and other available systems for rapid AST testing. We are in the process of joining several such studies to see how ASTar compares to the competition. Based on the data we've seen from individual evaluations, we are very much looking forward to seeing ASTar in large-scale comparisons of performance and workflow.
We see that health economics evidence (HEOR) is important to our European customers. It is therefore very gratifying that all the hospitals in our first major health economics study in Italy are now ready to begin. All the systems have been installed and the training and protocols are complete. We are waiting for a final ethics approval.
Our discussions with the FDA continued during the quarter, and we are now holding discussions on potential expanded testing. FDA has 90 days to examine our application, but it does not mean that the application is expected to be approved within 90 days. The "clock stops" when the FDA has a question or requests a clarification, which results in an extension of the time until approval. Similar products in the market have often had an approval time of 12 to 18 months. Of course, I hope that our review time will be faster than average since ASTar is classified as a breakthrough device by the FDA. Once we have received US market approval, we believe that clinical adoption in the US will go faster than it has in Europe so far given that the US market is generally faster to adopt new technology than the European market, especially within rapid AST diagnostics. We have just returned from ID week in Washington with a strong interest for ASTar. We are currently in discussions with two major hospitals who would like to evaluate ASTar before FDA approval.
Commercial discussions regarding Podler continued during the quarter, and I will of course announce how the discussion progress as soon as possible.
Q-linea is undergoing a major change as we now clearly take control of our own future. This change means that 2023 will be a year of transformation and adjustment to our new situation but based on the reception we've seen in Europe so far, I remain convinced that we have a promising and exciting journey ahead of us.
Uppsala, 30 October 2022, Jonas Jarvius, President
Q-linea focuses on supplying the market with automated systems for rapid antibiotic susceptibility testing of bacteria that cause infectious diseases, primarily sepsis.
ASTar will be sold to hospital microbiology laboratories and is a fully automated instrument for measuring bacteria's antibiotic susceptibility using the consumables developed by the Company. The aim of the instrument is to be able to deliver patient-specific treatment prescriptions for the choice of antibiotics more than 24 hours faster than today's traditional technologies.
In the development of the Company's upcoming consumables for gram-positive bacteria, the focus during the quarter was primarily on process development of the production steps that differ from the gram-negative product. This includes dispensing and drying of new antibiotics as well as methods for quality control of these two steps. In addition, a large number of gram-positive bacterial isolates have been characterised so that they can be used for machine learning by the algorithms that assess bacteria growth.
Production of gram-negative consumables also continued, with commercial deliveries of the CE-marked product to Thermo Fisher Scientific.
Work to lower production costs and increase production capacity for consumables continues. This work focuses on addressing cost-driving production steps and bottlenecks in production. A new process that reduces the cycle time for joining AST discs is under development. At the same time, development continues on new equipment for dispensing antibiotic in the AST disc and performing automated quality control.
The Company continued to secure future instrument deliveries during the quarter. The Company continued to develop instrument software that can manage multiple hardware versions of a specific component. At the same time, the instrument's software is being prepared to manage several different consumables, which is a requirement to run kits for both gram-negative and grampositive bacteria simultaneously.
The regulatory review of the Company's 510(k) application for access to the US market for the ASTar instrument and gram-negative consumables continued during the quarter. The application is very extensive, since it covers a completely new diagnostic platform with a multiplex (simultaneous analysis of multiple bacteria/antibiotics) consumable that generates a large amount of data from every test. The Company interacted with the FDA on several occasions during the quarter, replying to questions about its application.
Planning of the upcoming clinical performance study with ASTar for gram-positive bacteria also continued during the quarter.
Development of Podler, Q-linea's portable blood culture technology, continued during the quarter. An advanced prototype is being developed in cooperation with Qlinea's development partner on the project. The design work will also include efficient manufacturing in addition to ensuring technical functionality.
Figures in parentheses refer to the outcome for the corresponding period in the preceding year with respect to earnings and cash flow and to the closing balance in the preceding financial year with respect to the balance sheet. Unless otherwise stated, the amounts are presented in thousands of kronor (SEK thousand). All amounts presented have been rounded, which may mean that certain totals do not tally.
Q-linea first product, ASTar, is approved for sales in Europe. However, the Company is yet to generate any positive cash flow. Therefore, the Company is continually engaged in pursuing other financing options. This process includes holding discussions with potential partners for the licensing of distribution and sales rights, negotiations with new and existing investors, financiers and lenders, and securing resources to ensure the realisation of future forecast revenue streams from regions where the Company's product is registered.
As of 30 September, the Company's available cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments including shortterm components of other securities held as non-current assets and long-term listed corporate bonds do not cover the liquidity needed to conduct its planned operations for the next 12 months. In light of the work being done to pursue potential financing options and recent developments at the Company, the Board considers the Company's prospects to finance its operations over the coming year to be favourable.
Net sales for the third quarter totalled SEK 2,868 thousand (1,122), an increase of SEK 1,746 thousand compared with the corresponding period in the preceding year. Net sales for the January to September period totalled SEK 12,788 thousand (5,442), up SEK 7,346 thousand. Sales comprised ASTar instruments and associated consumables.
Other operating income amounted to SEK 618 thousand (51) for the third quarter and SEK 1,295 thousand (99) for the January to September period and pertained primarily to sales of customer-specific prototypes to external customers.
Changes in inventories of products in progress, semi-finished goods and finished goods amounted to SEK -2,742 thousand (-2,600) for the third quarter and SEK -19,250 thousand (-16,630) for the January to September period, mainly due to increased sales of the Company's products. Costs for raw materials and consumables and goods for resale totalled SEK 4,150 thousand (2,614) for the third quarter and SEK 10,525 thousand (10,347) for the January to September period. The Company reversed an impairment reserve for goods for resale and finished goods that amounted to SEK 958 thousand (111) for the third quarter, and SEK 749 thousand (-2,711) for the January to September period.
During the launch period for ASTar, the Company's margins will be negative. As volumes increase and the production mix shifts toward a higher share of consumables, the margins will improve. The efficiency-enhancement projects under way in the manufacturing division will also contribute to improved margins.
Other external costs totalled SEK 21,367 thousand (20,022) for the third quarter, up SEK 1,345 thousand. Operating expenses for the January to September period totalled SEK 69,692 thousand (65,750), up SEK 3,942 thousand. The changes during the quarter and in the January to September period were largely attributable to higher costs for clinical studies, which were mitigated by lower costs for consultants.
Personnel costs amounted to SEK 31,344 thousand (24,063) for the third quarter, up SEK 7,281 thousand compared with the corresponding quarter in the preceding year. Personnel costs for the January to September period totalled SEK 110,503 thousand (89,351), up SEK 21,152 thousand. The cost increase during both the quarter and the period was primarily attributable to a higher number of employees compared with the year-earlier periods.
Depreciation, amortisation and impairment of tangible and intangible assets totalled SEK 2,539 thousand (1,808) for the third quarter and SEK 7,167 thousand (5,221) for the January to September period. This cost increase was primarily attributable to the Company's investments in expanded laboratory capacity and ASTar instruments used in clinical studies, which are now being depreciated.
Other operating expenses amounted to SEK 268 thousand (85) for the third quarter and SEK 782 thousand (172) for the January to September period and pertain largely to exchange-rate losses.
The operating result totalled SEK -58,923 thousand (- 50,019) for the third quarter and SEK -203,835 thousand (-181,930) for the January to September period. The planned reduction in the operating result, which amounted to SEK -21,905 thousand, was primarily attributable to increased personnel costs.
The result from financial items totalled SEK -435
thousand (887) for the third quarter and SEK -1,461 thousand (1,676) for the January to September period. Realised exchange losses from the sale of fixed-income funds and bonds exceeded interest income for the period, leading to the negative result from financial items.
The reported tax in the third quarter and for the January to September period amounted to SEK 0 thousand (0).
The result for the third quarter totalled SEK -59,358 thousand (-49,132), and the result for the January to September period amounted to SEK -205,296 thousand (- 180,254).
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the third quarter totalled SEK 28,855 thousand (15,089). Cash and cash equivalents that are not required for daily operations over the coming 12 months are invested in fixed-income funds and listed corporate bonds.
On the balance sheet date, the Company's short-term investments amounted to SEK 65,312 thousand (150,945), consisting of the short-term component of listed corporate bonds.
The fixed-income funds on the balance sheet date consist of low-risk securities and other interest-rate instruments that were recognised at cost in an amount of SEK 0 thousand (91,245) at the end of the third quarter. The fair value of the fixed-income funds totalled SEK 0 thousand (91,295) on the balance sheet date (level 1 in the fair value hierarchy).
The Company's short-term component of the listed corporate bonds was recognised at cost in an amount of SEK 65,312 thousand (59,700) on the balance sheet date. The value includes accrued coupon rates of SEK 130 thousand (150). The fair value of the bonds amounted to SEK 63,502 thousand (59,427).
Financial assets totalled SEK 66,235 thousand (184,815) on the balance sheet date, a decrease of SEK 118,580 thousand. The change was attributable to the Company having sold bonds amounting to SEK 19,030 thousand (5,150) and invested SEK 12,000 thousand (199,511) in new bonds. The remaining amount is attributable to the reclassification of listed corporate bonds to the shortterm category as well as changes in accrued interest and credit reserve.
The Company's financial assets primarily comprise listed corporate bonds in several sectors with a diversified maturity structure with high credit ratings. During the quarter, the Company increased its holding in long-term bonds somewhat, which resulted in a higher credit reserve. At the end of the third quarter, the Company's total value of listed corporate bonds amounted to SEK 63,188 thousand (181,768). These are recognised at amortised cost and include a credit reserve of SEK -461 thousand (-215). The Company tests for impairment on each recognition date using data from S&P and Moody's. Other long-term financial assets also comprise
participations in EMPE Diagnostics AB amounting to SEK 2,997 thousand (2,997) at the end of the quarter. Qlinea's holding comprises 23,400 shares, corresponding to 5.52% of the capital and votes.
At the end of the quarter, equity amounted to SEK 227,189 thousand (430,788), the equity/assets ratio to 84% (92) and the debt/equity ratio to -69% (-81).
Cash flow from operating activities totalled SEK -55,356 thousand (-63,032) for the third quarter and SEK -176,125 thousand (-164,169) for the January to September period. The change in cash flow in the third quarter and the January to September period was mainly due to a lower operating result, which was partly mitigated by an improved change in working capital.
Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK 64,644 thousand (36,527) for the third quarter and SEK 189,971 thousand (-108,249) for the January to September period. Investments in tangible assets amounted to SEK 869 thousand (2,748) for the third quarter and SEK 13,835 thousand (5,934) for the January to September period.
During the third quarter, the Company invested SEK 0 thousand (6,056) in short-term investments, with the entire amount in the comparative period pertaining to short-term listed bonds. During the January to September period, the Company invested SEK 70,000 thousand (176,134) in short-term investments, of which SEK 70,000 thousand (160,000) was invested in interest-bearing funds and SEK X thousand (16,135) in short-term listed bonds.
In addition, the Company divested short-term investments totalling SEK 65,491 thousand (79,997) in the third quarter. Of this amount, short-term fixed-income funds comprised SEK 25,163 thousand (39,828) and short-term bonds comprised SEK 40,328 thousand (40,169). The Company divested short-term investments totalling SEK 266,776 thousand (268,182) in the January to September period. Of this amount, short-term fixed-income funds comprised SEK 160,945 thousand (144,515) and shortterm bonds comprised SEK 105,831 thousand (123,667).
The Company invested SEK 12,000 thousand (34,667) in financial assets in the third quarter and SEK 12,000 thousand (199,511) in the January to September period. The Company only invests in listed bonds that have the highest rating from S&P and Moody's. In addition, the Company divested financial assets in the January to September period valued at SEK 19,030 thousand (5,150).
Cash flow from financing activities totalled SEK 0 thousand (-53) for the third quarter and SEK -79 thousand (283,853) for the January to September period, and pertained to repayments to credit institutions. Loans to credit institutions are repaid in full. During the comparative January to September 2021 period, the Company
carried out a directed issue that raised gross proceeds of SEK 301,400 thousand. Issue costs totalled SEK 17,335 thousand.
To provide the Company with sufficient liquidity to continue operating and developing according to its strategic plan, the Company carried out a directed issue during 2021. This issue raised gross proceeds for the Company of SEK 301,400 thousand. As of 30 September 2022, the Company had access to cash and cash equivalents of SEK 28,855 thousand (15,089), short-term components of long-term listed corporate bonds of SEK 65,312 thousand (150,945) and long-term listed corporate bonds of SEK 63,188 thousand (181,768), totalling SEK 157,355 thousand (347,802).
Q-linea's Nomination Committee ahead of the 2023 Annual General Meeting has been appointed and comprises: Oscar Bergman, Chairman of the Nomination Committee (Swedbank Robur Fonder), Erika Kjellberg Eriksson, Chairperson Q-linea AB (Nexttobe AB) and Öystein Engebretsen (Investment AB Öresund).
Q-linea had 156 (124) employees at the end of the third quarter, 69 (54) of whom were women. The number of consultants at the end of the third quarter was 18 (36), 4 (11) of whom were women.
Q-linea took action to protect its employees, assume its responsibility in society and at the same time minimise the negative impact of the ongoing pandemic on the Company's operations. However, in the current climate we have welcomed all of our employees back to the office while continuing to offer a flexible way of working and taking the positive aspects of this approach with us into the future.
It is currently difficult to estimate the future effect on Qlinea's operations given that certain areas are under constant change. We have started to see positive effects as well as a certain degree of uncertainty in the following significant areas, which could be subject to the effects of the pandemic:
• Expense levels and financing strategy.
Shortage of components that are necessary for the ASTar instrument, which could also apply for consumables. Last year, the Company placed orders for key components for ASTar in order to be able to manage deliveries while maintaining a safety stock for future deliveries. Q-linea is monitoring the ongoing situation very closely and will implement further measures as required and keep the markets informed if the assessment of the potential impact changes significantly. It is currently impossible to estimate the ultimate impact on the Company.
The devastating war in Ukraine is a tragedy, and our thoughts are with all of the people affected. The war's impact on the Company is very difficult to predict, but at present the assessment of management and the Board of Directors is that:
Q-linea is following the events closely.
Q-linea's management makes assumptions, assessments and estimates that impact the contents of the Company's financial statements. As stated in the Company's accounting policies, actual outcomes may differ from these assessments and estimates.
The goal of the Company's risk management is to identify, measure, control and limit the risks associated with its operations. Risks can be divided into financial risks and operational and business environment risks. Q-linea's operational and business environment risks mainly comprise risks related to research and development, production risks, clinical trials, market risks, risks associated with product approval and the dependence on key individuals. A detailed description of the Company's risk exposure and risk management is presented on pages 36–82 of the 2021 Annual Report.
In this financial report, Q-linea presents certain alternative performance measures that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. These performance measures are generic and are often used for the purpose of analysing and comparing different companies. Accordingly, the Company believes that these alternative performance measures serve as an important supplement to enable readers to conduct a quick overview and assessment of Q-linea's financial situation.
These alternative performance measures are not to be considered independent and are not deemed to replace the performance measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. Moreover, such performance measures, as defined by Q-linea, are not to be compared with other performance measures with similar names used by other companies. This is because the above performance measures have not always been defined in the same way and because other companies may not calculate them in the same way as Q-linea.
The performance measures "Net sales", "Result for the period", "Earnings per share" and "Cash flow from operating activities" are defined in accordance with IFRS.
| Performance measure | Definition | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| EBITDA | Operating result before depreciation/amortisation and impairment. |
This performance measure provides an overall view of profit for the operating activities. |
| Operating result | Result before financial items according to the income statement. |
This earnings measurement is used for external comparisons. |
| Equity/assets ratio, % |
Equity in relation to total assets. | This performance measure shows the amount of the balance sheet that has been financed by equity and is used to measure the Company's financial position. |
| Debt/equity ratio | Net debt divided by recognised equity according to the balance sheet. Net debt is defined as total borrowing (comprising the items short-term borrowing and long-term borrowing in the balance sheet, including borrowing from related parties/Group companies and provisions), less cash and cash equivalents and short and long-term investments. |
This performance measure is a measure of capital strength and is used to determine the relationship between liabilities and equity. In the case of positive equity, a negative debt/equity ratio means that available cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments exceed total borrowing. |
| Equity per share before and after dilution |
Equity attributable to the Company's shareholders in relation to the number of shares outstanding, excluding treasury shares, at the end of the period. |
This performance measure shows the amount of the Company's equity that can be attributed to a share. |
The following is a reconciliation of certain alternative performance measures showing the various performance measure components that make up the alternative performance measures. Treasury shares refer to the Company's own holding to ensure the delivery of performance shares under LTIP 2019. The Company's holding of treasury shares has been excluded from the calculation of per-share performance measures.

At the end of the third quarter, Q-linea had four ongoing share-based remuneration programmes: the performance share-based programme LTIP 2019 and the three employee share option programmes 2020/2023, 2021/2024 and 2022/2025.
The rights to receive performance shares were allotted free of charge in December 2019. As of 31 December 2019, when the programme was closed to new participants, 40,990 performance share rights had been allotted to participants of the programme. The performance targets are linked to product development, product approval and commercialisation.
The performance share rights are earned as the performance targets are met. The value of each performance share right is SEK 56.00 and is based on the closing price on the allotment date (20 December 2019). At the end of the third quarter, there were 40,990 (40,990) performance share rights outstanding and no performance share rights had expired. The cost recognised, including social security contributions, amounted to SEK 152 thousand (248) for the third quarter and SEK 370 thousand (738) for the January to September period.
Employee share options were allotted free of charge on 30 June 2020 following a resolution by the Annual General Meeting on 26 May 2020. The programme measures the fulfilment of certain strategic and operational targets established by the Board, and employees may acquire one ordinary share in the Company after a vesting period of three years. When the programme was closed to new participants, a total of 345,850 employee share options had been allotted. The volume-weighted average price for the Company's share according to Nasdaq Stockholm's price list during the period from 11–25 May, meaning the ten (10) trading days prior to 26 May 2020, was SEK 79.19, and the exercise price was thus set at SEK 98.98 per share.
The option value on the allotment date was based on the average price on the allotment date and was calculated at SEK 11.38 per option. At the end of the third quarter, there were 300,470 (324,430) employee share options outstanding and 45,380 (21,420) employee share options had expired since the start of the programme. The option value on the balance sheet date was SEK 2.12 (43.44) per option, according to the Black & Scholes model. The cost recognised, including social security contributions, amounted to SEK 35 thousand (284) for the third quarter and SEK -387 thousand (1,087) for the January to September period.
Employee share options were allotted free of charge on 30 June 2021 following a resolution by the Annual General Meeting on 25 May 2021. The programme measures the fulfilment of certain strategic and operational targets established by the Board, and employees may acquire one ordinary share in the Company after a vesting period of three years. Employee share options are to be offered free of charge to individuals employed by the Company as of 15 June 2021 who are not covered by any of the previous share-based incentive programmes in the Company. When the programme was closed to new participants, a total of 128,520 employee share options had been allotted. The volumeweighted average price for the Company's share according to Nasdaq Stockholm's price list during the period from 10– 24 May, meaning the ten (10) trading days prior to 25 May 2021, was SEK 153.45, and the exercise price was thus set at SEK 191.81 per share.
The option value on the allotment date was based on the average price on the allotment date and was calculated at SEK 23.71 per option. At the end of the third quarter, there were 114,240 (128,520) employee share options outstanding and 14,280 (0) employee share options had expired since the start of the programme. The option value on the balance sheet date was SEK 0.66 (18.38) per option, according to the Black & Scholes model. The cost recognised, including social security contributions, amounted to SEK -221 thousand (395) for the third quarter and SEK 257 thousand (395) for the January to September period.
The Company's Annual General Meeting on 24 May 2022 resolved to introduce an employee share option programme for the Company's employees. Employee share option programme 2022/2025 is to comprise a maximum of 292,770 employee share options. Employee share options are to be offered free of charge to individuals employed by the Company as of 15 June 2022 who are i) members of the management team or ii) not covered by any of the two previous employee share option programmes (adopted in 2020 and 2021, respectively), the "Previous Programmes". Each person will be offered as many employee share options as needed for the person in question to hold a certain total number of options within the framework of this employee share option programme and the Previous Programmes. The
total number of options per individual per category is shown below.
Each employee share option shall entitle the holder, on the achievement of certain strategic and operational goals set by the Board in advance and connected to significant events in the Company's development, such as advances in product development, product approval and commercialisation, and after a three-year vesting period, to acquire one (1) new common share in the Company at an exercise price corresponding to 125% of the volume-weighted average price of the Company's share according to Nasdaq Stockholm's price list during the period ten (10) trading days before 24 May 2022. However, the subscription price may not under any circumstances be less than the quotient value. To enable the Company's delivery of shares under the programme and to cover the cash flow effects as a result of any social security contributions arising under the programme, the Annual General Meeting resolved to carry out a directed issue of a maximum of 384,758 warrants to the Company, of which a maximum of 91,988 warrants were issued to cover any cash flow effects as a result of social security contributions arising under the employee share option programme 2022/2025.
As of 30 June 2022, when the programme was closed to new participants, a total of 223,030 employee share options had been allotted to the 39 participants who had registered for the programme. The volume-weighted average price for the Company's share according to Nasdaq Stockholm's price list during the period from 10–23 May, meaning the ten (10) trading days prior to 24 May 2022, was SEK 82.26, and the exercise price was thus set at SEK 102.82 per share. The option value on the allotment date of 30 June 2022 was calculated according to the Black & Scholes model based on the average price on the allotment date and was calculated at SEK 14.06 per option.
At the end of the third quarter, there were 215,890 (0) employee share options outstanding and 7,140 (0) employee share options had expired since the start of the programme. The option value at the end of the quarter amounted to SEK 9.77 (0.0) per option, according to the Black & Scholes model. The cost recognised, including social security contributions, amounted to SEK 262 thousand (0) for the third quarter and for the January to September period.
At the end of the third quarter of 2022, the Company had an inventory value of SEK 22,292 thousand (28,646).

The Company is exposed to various types of risks during the course of its operations. By creating an awareness of the risks associated with the operations, such risks can be limited, controlled and managed while allowing business opportunities to be utilised in order to increase the Company's earnings.
At the end of the third quarter, the Company had a credit reserve of SEK -461 thousand (-215). The material risks associated with Q-linea's operations are presented in the Annual Report for the 1 January to 31 December 2021 financial year and in the prospectus prepared prior to the listing on Nasdaq Stockholm.
Q-linea has the first ASTar product approved for sales in Europe. However, the Company is yet to generate any positive cash flow. Therefore, the Company is continually engaged in pursuing other financing options. This process includes holding discussions with potential partners for the licensing of distribution and sales rights, negotiations with new and existing investors, financiers and lenders, and securing resources to ensure the realisation of future forecast revenue streams from regions where the Company's product is registered.
As of 30 September, the Company's available cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments including short-term components of other securities held as non-current assets and long-term listed corporate bonds do not cover the liquidity needed to conduct its planned operations for the next 12 months. In light of the work being done to pursue potential financing options and recent developments at the Company, the Board considers the Company's prospects to finance its operations over the coming year to be favourable.
Q-linea has reached an agreement with Thermo Fisher Scientific to end the exclusive global distribution agreement for ASTar instruments and consumables. Q-linea will now have the right to market and distribute ASTar on the US and European markets. Q-linea will strengthen the internal capacity to best approach the market.
