Navigating market uncertainty while making solid progress with our Data
Quality initiative
During the third quarter, we continued to experience a turbulent market, as
our customers faced ongoing price pressure and trade-related challenges,
leading to general uncertainty and hesitation. While navigating these complex
market dynamics, we made solid progress with our Data Quality initiative as we
secured key approvals allowing us to initiate patient recruitment. In
parallel, we started our share buyback program, reflecting our confidence in
the long-term development of ContextVision.
Revenue for the third quarter amounted to 23.7 MSEK (30.1), a decline of
-21.2% compared to Q3 2024. This was mainly due to lower license sales and a
translational FX effect of 1.1 MSEK. While our market-leading customers manage
current market conditions with less impact on our license sales, customers
with a smaller global footprint and lower volumes are more directly impacted,
also affecting our sales directly.
The broader healthcare sector remains challenging, with geopolitical and
structural headwinds resulting in increased price pressure, shifting demand
from premium to mid-range segments, and delayed procurements in key regions.
While we have not lost customers during the period, we expect the market
conditions to persist in the short term.
Adjusted EBITDA came in at 4.0 MSEK (11.4), corresponding to a margin of 16.7%
when excluding investments in Data Quality of 2.6 MSEK. The decrease in
profitability is explained by lowerrevenue, increased R&D, FX effects, and
non-recurring foreign tax expenses of 2.9 MSEK. We expect costs related to the
Data Quality initiative to increase going forward, while we are simultaneously
implementing cost reductions elsewhere.
While financial performance reflects market uncertainty, our strategic
initiatives in Image Quality and Data Quality continue to advance as planned,
reinforcing the foundation of our business. To unlock the value of our
investments in Image Quality and Data Quality we also invest in the
infrastructure of the company; for example, in our IT, QA-function and R&D
equipment.
Strategically, we continue adapting our long-term image quality offerings to
serve market segments that are increasingly attractive within the evolving
market landscape as we continue to deepen our long-standing partnerships with
leading OEMs. We have previously initiated collaborations with OEMs to support
a broader part of the image processing chain, and these are moving forward
according to plan, with positive response on presented prototypes. In Q4, at
the RSNA (Radiological Society of North America), we also plan to launch the
first product from our new line of clinically focused products.
In the third quarter, we devoted significant efforts in the Data Quality
initiative as we took important steps in our plan. We made further progress by
securing Institutional Review Board (IRB) and Ethics Committee approval of the
clinical protocol, allowing us to initiate subject recruitment. Currently, our
collaboration partner University of Washington, USA, is actively screening
patients with the goal of enrolling the first study participant in the near
term.
The study aims to develop a novel, AI-powered, ultrasound-based biomarker for
quantifying hepatic steatosis in patients with metabolic
dysfunction--associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). We will collect data
from different modalities, patient demographics as well as clinical data, from
more than 100 participants, spanning the full MASLD spectrum, to build
disease-specific biomarker and organ specific diagnostics solutions. The
initiative represents an important step toward non-invasive, quantitative, and
scalable diagnostics, addressing a global health challenge that affects nearly
one in four people worldwide, thus representing a large market potential for
ContextVision.
During the period, we also initiated our share buyback program, as authorized
by the AGM in May. The program reflects our confidence in our future. Step by
step we are position ContextVisionfor the future of healthcare and
technological innovation.
