(Art. 222-3 - 4° of the General Regulation of the AMF)
"I certify, to the best of my knowledge, that the condensed financial statements for the past half-year have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and give a true and fair view of the assets, financial position and results of the Company and of all the companies in the scope of consolidation, and that the half-year activity report (appearing on pages 6 to 15 of this half-year financial report) presents an accurate picture of the significant events that occurred during the first six months of the financial year and their impact on the financial statements, of the main transactions between related parties and that it describes the main risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the financial year".
Aix-en-Provence, France, 20 September 2021.
Mr Michel Finance, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of AFFLUENT MEDICAL.
The Affluent Medical Group is developing next-generation minimally invasive medical devices, at a clinical stage, with the aim of saving the lives and improving the quality of life of millions of patients around the world affected by severe pathologies in the urological and structural heart fields.
Affluent Medical has a portfolio of products or technologies to regulate urethral, cardiac or aortic flows by restoring the natural physiology of patients, while simplifying the surgical procedure (optimal precision, speed and safety) and reducing the total cost of short-term and long-term care:
The Company was incorporated on 23 February 2018 as a holding company to hold stakes in four operating companies. Affluent Medical directly holds 100% of the share capital and voting rights of Epygon, Kardiozis, Kephalios and MyoPowers, and indirectly 100% of Epygon Italie SRL and Medev Europa SRL. The Company indirectly holds 40% of the share capital and voting rights of the two Chinese companies, Shanghai Epygon Medical Technology Co. Ltd and Shanghai MyoPowers Medical Technology Co. Ltd as part of the joint ventures entered into with Shanghai Zuquan Investment Management Company Limited (refer to section 6.1 of the Registration Document).
The Group's research and development (R&D), preclinical and clinical activities have mobilised most of its resources, enabling significant progress in the validation of the medical devices and technologies presented in more detail in Chapter 5 "Overview of business activities" in the Registration Document. It should be noted that all R&D, pre-clinical and clinical costs are recognised as operating expenses in the year in which they are incurred. The Group also devotes a sizeable percentage of its resources to protecting its intellectual property by filing international patent applications at an early stage.
Since the creation of Affluent Medical, the Group's cumulative consolidated losses have amounted to nearly €47.5 million, mainly related to R&D expenses and preclinical and clinical studies as well as
overheads and operating expenses. Operating expenses dedicated to R&D, preclinical and clinical activities, regulatory affairs and quality, and excluding general administrative expenses, represent approximately 73% of the Company's total expenses.
As R&D, preclinical and clinical expenses are recognised as operating expenses for the year in which they are incurred, the developed projects require growing financial needs and generate operating losses. Affluent Medical's first operating revenues will be generated when the developed projects reach the commercialisation or license agreement stage, which could generate revenues in the form of lump sums or royalties (refer to section 5.1.1 of the Registration Document).
| OPERATING EXPENSES (Amounts in thousands of euros) |
30/06/2021 | 30/06/2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purchases consumed | (1,351) | (1,509) | 158 |
| External expenses | (3,111) | (1,687) | (1,423) |
| Personnel expenses | (2,573) | (2,233) | (340) |
| Amortisation, depreciation and provisions | (1,024) | (792) | (232) |
| Other | 103 | (74) | 177 |
| Total operating expenses | (7,955) | (6,296) | (1,660) |
Operating expenses amounted to €7,955 thousand at 30 June 2021 compared to €6,296 thousand at 30 June 2020, which represents an increase of €1,660 thousand. This change is mainly due to the costs related to the Company's IPO in the first half of 2021, which amounted to €1,181 thousand in expenses (and €1,663 thousand deducted from shareholders' equity) as well as the strengthening of the Group's research and development and management teams.
The change in purchases consumed between the first half of 2020 and the first half of 2021 breaks down as follows:
| Purchases consumed (Amounts in thousands of euros) |
30/06/2021 | 30/06/2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purchase of studies | (1,037) | (1,298) | 261 |
| Non-stocked purchases of materials and supplies | (305) | (211) | (94) |
| Purchases of goods, raw materials, supplies and other provisions | (9) | (1) | (8) |
| Total purchases consumed | (1,351) | (1,509) | 158 |
Purchases consumed consist of:
The level of the Group's expenses depends on the stage of completion of clinical and pre-clinical trials.
During the first half of 2021, purchases consumed fell by €158 thousand compared to the first half of 2020. This decrease is mainly due to the decrease in external research expenses of -€261 thousand offset by the increase in laboratory supplies of +€94 thousand.
The change in external expenses between the first half of 2020 and the first half of 2021 breaks down as follows:
| External expenses (Amounts in thousands of euros) |
30/06/2021 | 30/06/2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fees | (1,569) | (1,399) | (170) |
| Fees relating to the IPO | (1,181) | - | (1,181) |
| Missions and receptions | (67) | (78) | 11 |
| Miscellaneous | (294) | (210) | (84) |
| Total external expenses | (3,111) | (1,687) | (1,424) |
The change in external expenses between the two periods is mainly due to:
The change in personnel expenses between the first half of 2020 and the first half of 2021 breaks down as follows:
| Personnel expenses (Amounts in thousands of euros) |
30/06/2021 | 30/06/2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Employee compensation | (1,638) | (1,298) | (340) |
| Social security charges | (606) | (437) | (169) |
| Pension commitments | 4 | (18) | 23 |
| Short-time working compensation | - | 52 | (52) |
| Share-based payments | (333) | (531) | 198 |
| Total personnel expenses | (2,573) | (2,233) | (340) |
The increase in personnel expenses between the first half of 2020 and the first half of 2021 (excluding the effect of IFRS 2 – share-based payments) amounting to +€538 thousand is due to the gradual strengthening of the Group's research and development and management teams.
The Group had an average headcount of 47 employees in the first half of 2021 compared to 42 employees in the first half of 2020. Most of the staff is assigned to research and development activities, divided between its research laboratories in Vélizy-Villacoublay, Aix-en-Provence, Besançon and Colleretto Giacosa in Italy.
Personnel expenses include the expense relating to share-based payments (IFRS 2) for equity instruments granted to employees or corporate officers in the amount of €333 thousand at 30 June 2021 and €531 thousand at 30 June 2020, i.e. a decrease of €198 thousand between the two periods.
The change in amortisation, depreciation and provisions between the first half of 2020 and the first half of 2021 breaks down as follows:
| Amortisation, depreciation and provisions (Amounts in thousands of euros) |
30/06/2021 | 30/06/2020 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amortisation | (916) | (939) | 23 |
| Depreciation (excluding right of use) | (138) | (95) | (43) |
| Depreciation (right of use) | (122) | (112) | (10) |
| Provisions | - | (50) | 50 |
| Reversals of provisions | 153 | - | 153 |
| Reversals of provisions for debt | - | 404 | (404) |
| Total amortisation, depreciation and provisions | (1,024) | (792) | (232) |
Amortisation, depreciation and provisions are mainly related to:
The financial loss amounted to -€339 thousand at 30 June 2021 compared to a loss of -€952 thousand at 30 June 2020, i.e. an improvement of €613 thousand.
| FINANCIAL INCOME AND EXPENSES (Amounts in thousands of euros) |
30/06/2021 | 30/06/2020 |
|---|---|---|
| Cost of net financial debt | (1,381) | (1,278) |
| Income from cash and cash equivalents | - | |
| Interest expenses | (1,372) | (1,253) |
| Effect of accretion | (9) | (25) |
| Other financial income and expenses | 1,041 | (326) |
| Foreign exchange income | - | 1 |
| Change in fair value of derivative liabilities | 1,040 | 223 |
| Other | 1 | 102 |
| Net financial income (loss) | (339) | (952) |
The financial loss for the years presented is strongly negative given the financing set up in 2020 and 2021, and the increase in interest paid as a result. It is partially offset by the change in fair value under IFRS of derivative liabilities.
In particular, the financial loss in 2021 includes:
interest paid in the amount of -€370 thousand in 2021;
the accretion of repayable advances in accordance with IAS 20 "Accounting for government grants and disclosures of government assistance" for an amount of -€9 thousand; and
Foreign exchange gains and losses, which are not material, are also recognised in financial income (loss).

Activities were affected by Covid-19 in 2020 and 2021. In particular, the Company faced delays in its clinical study programmes due to the mobilisation of hospitals to contain the health crisis. To date and despite delays, the Company does not anticipate any major impacts on marketing dates or revenue forecasts.
The Company has also adapted its organisation and working methods by using teleworking and limiting travel.
During the first half of 2020, short-time working measures were implemented to minimise the impacts of these delays. In this regard, the Company received €51 thousand in compensation for short-time working hours, which was deducted from personnel expenses.
At the closing date of the financial statements, the Covid-19 pandemic had a limited impact on the Company's financial statements at 30 June 2021 and did not call into question the value of the fixed assets.

On 6 April 2021, the holders of A shares met for a General Meeting and approved the conversion of all of the 11,207,401 A shares into ordinary shares of the Company, on the basis of one (1) A share for every (1) ordinary share, with effect from the first listing date of the shares on the Euronext Paris regulated market.
Jean-Dominique Béhéty has been appointed as Director of the Kalios programme. He has devoted his entire career to the medical devices industry. He started as a qualification technician at Ela Medical in the early 1990s. After that he joined SAIME, which became ResMed Paris, a leading player in the field of in-home and hospital respiratory support, where he successively held several positions and ultimately managed the Group's last industrial site in Europe. His tasks included spearheading strategic changes, particularly overhauling processes and developing a service-based business. Starting in 2018 he broadened his field of expertise by engaging in various entrepreneurial projects before joining Affluent Medical.
June 2021:
On 9 June 2021, Affluent Medical announced the success of its IPO on the regulated market of Euronext Paris. In this context, the Company carried out a capital increase of €25 million with the issue of 2,906,978 new ordinary shares at a price of €8.60 per share. Following this transaction, the number of shares increased to 18,163,802. Taking into account the IPO price of €8.60 per share, the market capitalisation of Affluent Medical stands at approximately €156 million.
At its meeting of 20 July 2021, the Board of Directors noted the lapse of 145,034 founders' share warrants (BSPCEs):
In addition, at this meeting, the Board of Directors also noted that the 18,789 BSA-2018-2 share subscription warrants lapsed on 6 July 2021.
On this date, the Board of Directors also:
New patients were included in the pivotal study on the Kalios mitral valve ring, the only ring that can be readjusted several times after being implanted without surgery. In order to include all of the study's patients, and despite the health crisis in Europe, new centres will be added to the current nine clinical centres.
An adjustment to the Kalios mitral ring was made on 12 July 2021 by Professor A. Albertini at the Cotignola hospital centre in Italy 11 months after it was implanted. The mitral leak was a 4+ grade leak. Mitral leaks occur in 40% of cases after the ring is implanted. The post-surgery results are in line with expectations and reduced the mitral leak to a grade 1+ leak. The surgeon noted that the adjustment via the transcatheter route was easy and quick. The patient, who is under scheduled medical monitoring, is currently classified as NYHA I1 and therefore has no limitations on their day-to-day activities.
The Czech and Spanish Ethics Committees issued a favourable opinion on the launch of a pivotal study on the Artus medical device for the treatment of moderate to severe incontinence. Applications to receive regulatory authorisation were also submitted to the health authorities in the two countries. The Company is currently answering the Spanish and Czech health authorities within the framework of the application process to receive regulatory authorisation. In Spain, following delays due to the Covid-19 crisis, this review was extended by three months on the request of the Spanish health authorities.
The recruitment of patients within the framework of the pilot study to carry out the implantation of the Epygon valve bioprosthesis, capable of imitating the native mitral valve and restoring physiological blood flow in the heart, is underway in Austria, Italy and Spain. Within the framework of our agreement with a distributor in Spain, new investigation centres are currently in the process of opening. All the surgeons at the four clinical centres participating in this clinical study received training on the Epygon device and feedback is currently positive.
On 27 August 2021, the Company announced the contribution of an additional €100 thousand to the liquidity contract awarded to Kepler Cheuvreux.
The Company continues to develop its medical devices and its business development activities in order to market its products within the expected timeframes.
The Company will be present at the following investor forums:

The information below constitutes the notes to the condensed half-year consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS standards at 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020.

Affluent Medical develops innovative, next-generation minimally invasive implants to restore essential physiological functions in these areas. Affluent Medical's four medical devices are currently in the pre-clinical or clinical phase and the first medical device is expected to be marketed by 2023.
Head office address: 320, avenue Archimède – Les Pléiades III – Bâtiment B 13100 Aix en Provence, France Trade and Companies Register number: 837 722 560 RCS Aix-en-Provence.
Affluent Medical SA is hereinafter referred to as the "Company". The group formed by Affluent Medical SA and its subsidiaries and sub-subsidiaries is hereinafter referred to as the "Group".
On 9 June 2021, Affluent Medical announced the success of its IPO on the regulated market of Euronext Paris. In this context, the Company carried out a capital increase of €25 million with the issue of 2,906,978 new ordinary shares at a price of €8.60 per share. Following this transaction, the number of shares increased to 18,163,802. Taking into account the IPO price of €8.60 per share, the market capitalisation of Affluent Medical stands at approximately €156 million.
In accordance with European regulation 1606/2002 of 19 July 2002 on international standards, the Company's half-year consolidated financial statements at 30 June 2021 were approved in accordance with the applicable international accounting standards as adopted by the European Union (hereinafter the "IFRS"). These standards include the international accounting standards (IAS/IFRS), the interpretations of the Standards Interpretations Committee (SIC) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) as published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as at 30 June 2021 applicable to date.
The condensed half-year consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, the IFRS standard as adopted by the European Union, relating to interim financial information. As these are condensed financial statements, they do not include all the information required by IFRS standards and should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020 (the "annual financial statements").
The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost principle, with the exception of certain categories of assets and liabilities in accordance with the provisions of IFRS. The categories concerned are mentioned in the following notes.
The Company focuses on the invention and development of new medical devices. The Company's deficit position during the financial years presented is not unusual in relation to the stage of development of its products.
The Company has succeeded in financing its activities to date mainly through:
On the closing date of these financial statements, the Board of Directors expects to continue to record losses in the medium term and that its current resources will enable it to finance its activity until the end of the first semester 2022 based on the following:
In addition, the Company continues to actively study various solutions to continue financing its business and development. These solutions could, without being restrictive, involve carrying out capital increases, setting up bonds and obtaining public financing.
The accounting principles used are identical to those used for the preparation of the annual IFRS consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020, except for the application of the following new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations adopted by the European Union, mandatory for the Company at 1 January 2021:
• Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 4, IFRS 7 and IFRS 16 "Benchmark interest rate reform – Phase 2", published by the IASB on 27 August 2020, the application of which is mandatory from 1 January 2021.
These new texts adopted by the European Union had no significant impact on the Group's financial statements.
The standards, amendments to standards and interpretations published by the IASB and not yet adopted by the European Union are as follows:
The Company does not anticipate any significant impact of these standards, amendments to standards and interpretations on its financial statements at the date of adoption.
With the exception of the new texts identified above, the Company did not make any changes in accounting methods during the first half of 2021.
According to IFRS 10 "Consolidated financial statements", subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement in the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which the Group acquires control. They are deconsolidated from the date on which control ceases to be exercised.
Entities controlled directly by the parent company and indirectly through other controlled entities are fully consolidated.
IFRS 11.16 "Partnership", defines joint ventures as a joint arrangement in which the partners that exercise joint control over the entity have rights to the net assets of the entity. Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method.
The scope of consolidation is as follows:

To prepare the condensed half-year consolidated financial statements, the main judgments made by management and the main assumptions used are the same as those applied when preparing the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.
These estimates are based on the going concern assumption and are based on the information available at the time of their preparation.
Activities were affected by Covid-19 in 2020 and 2021. In particular, the Company faced minor delays in its clinical study programmes due to the mobilisation of hospitals to contain the health crisis.
The Company has adapted its organisation and working methods by using teleworking and limiting travel.
During the first half of 2020, short-time working measures were implemented to minimise the impacts of these delays. In this regard, the Company received €51 thousand in compensation for short-time working hours, which was deducted from personnel expenses.
At the closing date of the financial statements, the Covid-19 pandemic had a limited impact on the Company's financial statements at 30 June 2021 and did not call into question the value of the fixed assets.
Goodwill is allocated to four cash-generating units, generally corresponding to a company:

| TOTAL | 32,203 | 32,203 |
There were no indications of impairment during the periods presented in accordance with IAS 36.
The Group carried out annual impairment tests on goodwill (€32,203 thousand at the end of the reporting periods).
For the purposes of goodwill impairment tests, at 30 June 2021 the Group is divided into four cash-generating units ("CGUs") or groups of CGUs, which generally correspond to one company.
The key assumptions used by the Company at 30 June 2021 are based on:
At 30 June 2021, based on internal valuations, the Group concluded that the recoverable amount of the CGUs tested exceeded their carrying amount. The Group's management believes that any reasonable change in the key assumptions mentioned above would result in the recoverable amount of the CGUs being significantly lower than their carrying amount.

In the first half of 2021, the change in usage rights is mainly due to the signing of a new lease for the Aix-en-Provence site by Affluent Medical (gross value of €232 thousand) and the end of the lease agreement for Kephalios on the same site (gross value of €311 thousand and cumulative depreciation of €116 thousand, i.e. a net value of €195 thousand).

Following its IPO on the Euronext Paris market, the Company signed a liquidity agreement with a specialised institution to limit the intra-day volatility of the Affluent Medical share.
In this context, the Company has entrusted this institution with €400 thousand to take buy or sell positions on the Company's shares. The shares acquired under this contract are recognised as treasury shares at their acquisition cost.
The result of the disposal of these treasury shares is recorded in shareholders' equity.
The cash reserve related to the liquidity contract is presented in "other non-current financial assets".

The number of Company shares does not include share subscription warrants ("BSA"), founders' share warrants ("BSPCE") granted to employees, executives, directors and external service providers and not yet exercised.
During the first half of 2021, the Company carried out several capital increases in cash:
As part of the Company's initial public offering, preferred A shares will be automatically converted into ordinary shares when the Company's securities are listed on the stock market.
The Group's policy is to maintain a sufficient financial base to preserve the confidence of investors and creditors and to support the future growth of the company.
Following the Company's initial public offering on the regulated market of Euronext Paris, the Company signed a liquidity contract on 14 June 2021 in order to limit the intra-day volatility of the Company's share. In this context, the Company has entrusted Kepler Cheuvreux with €400 thousand to take buy or sell positions on the Company's shares.
At 30 June 2021, under this agreement, 23,891 treasury shares were recognised as a deduction from shareholders' equity and €221 thousand in respect of the cash account were recorded as non-current financial assets.
On 27 August 2021, the Company announced the contribution of an additional €100 thousand to the liquidity contract awarded to Kepler Cheuvreux.
Ancillary costs directly attributable to the issuing of shares or stock options are recognised, net of tax, as a deduction from equity.
As part of the Company's IPO and the concomitant capital increase, the Company generated costs of €2.84 million. These costs were deducted from the issue premium in the amount of €1.66 million (of which €155 thousand had already been recognised at 31 December 2020) and the balance of €1.18 million was recognised as expenses for 2021.
The Company did not pay any dividends during the years presented.

On 8 April 2020, the Company entered into a contract with Bpifrance for a loan of €1,000 thousand with a single payment and bearing interest at 1.14% for the "development of a disruptive medical device (adjustable mitral ring) to combat recurrent mitral insufficiency".
The Company received a total of €1,000 thousand in connection with this contract and met the conditions for the success of this project.
Following the success of the project, the repayment schedule is as follows: €50 thousand per quarter from 30 September 2022 to 30 June 2027 (20 payments).
Under IFRS, the fact that the loan bears the payment of a lower annual interest than the market amounts to considering that the Company has benefited from a loan at a rate more favourable than market conditions. The difference between the amount of the loan at historical cost and that of the loan discounted at a marginal debt ratio (3.10%) is considered as a grant received from the State.
On 28 September 2015, the companies KEPHALIOS and EPYGON, in partnership with the entities MDB TEXINOV and IFTH (French Institute of Textile and Clothing) entered into a contract with Bpifrance for:
• repayable advances of a maximum amount of €5,458 thousand (including €4,512 thousand for AFFLUENT MEDICAL Group companies) with payments in several instalments depending on the achievement of a "key milestone" and not bearing interest for the "development of innovative medical devices and techniques derived from the textile industry for the creation of a national cardiovascular sector";
• grants of a maximum of €3,122 thousand (including €1,957 thousand for AFFLUENT MEDICAL Group companies).
The aid granted by Bpifrance breaks down into grants and repayable advances.
At this stage, the delays observed in the conduct of clinical trials had negligible effects on the calculation of accrued interest.
Epygon received a total of €2,319 thousand in connection with this contract and met the conditions for the success of key steps 1, 2 and 3, out of a total four key steps.
Following the success of the key steps 1, 2 and 3, the repayment schedule is as follows:
The contract between Bpifrance and EPYGON provides for an additional payment once the company has repaid all the advances received. The Company undertakes, for a period of 5 (five) consecutive years after the date of termination of said repayment and once it has reached a cumulative amount of revenue excluding tax equal to or greater than €20,000,000 (twenty million euros), to pay 2% (two percent) of the annual revenue generated by the exploitation of the products developed thanks to the project.
As at 30 June 2021, based on EPYGON's projected revenue, the Company estimated the additional payments. The debt was recognised at amortised cost by recognising €1,229 thousand of accrued interest.
KEPHALIOS received a total of €892 thousand in connection with this contract and met the conditions for the success of key steps 1, 2 and 3, out of a total of 4 key steps.
Following the success of the key steps 1, 2 and 3, the repayment schedule is as follows:
In addition to the provisional fixed repayment schedule, KEPHALIOS must pay an annuity equal to:
The contract concluded between Bpifrance and KEPHALIOS provides for the payment of an additional payment once the company has repaid in full the advances received. The company undertakes, for a period of 5 (five) consecutive years after the date of termination of said repayment and once it has reached a cumulative amount of revenue excluding tax equal to or greater than €10,000,000 (ten million euros), to pay 2% (two percent) of the annual revenue generated by the exploitation of the products developed thanks to the project.
As at 30 June 2021, based on KEPHALIOS's projected revenue, the Company estimated the additional payments. The debt was recognised at amortised cost by recognising €463 thousand of accrued interest.
On 21 July 2016, MYOPOWERS entered into a contract with Bpifrance for a repayable advance of a maximum amount of €7,796 thousand with payments in several tranches depending on the achievement of a "key milestone" and not bearing interest for the "development of an artificial urinary sphincter for the treatment of severe stress urinary incontinence".
The aid granted by Bpifrance breaks down into a grant for €201 thousand and a repayable advance for €7,796 thousand.
The Company received a total of €3,659 thousand in connection with this contract and met the conditions for success of key stage 1.
The repayment schedule is as follows: €2,055 thousand per year from 1 September 2023 to 1 September 2026 (4 instalments).
In May 2021, the company renegotiated with BPI in order to postpone the due dates of the next key steps as well as the start of the repayment of the advance.
Thus, key stage 4 has been postponed by six months to 30 June 2023 (this stage corresponds to the CE or FDA marking and the finalisation of the programme).
The start date of repayment of the advance has been postponed to 31 December 2024.
As part of the implementation of the repayable advance for the PIAVE ARTUS project (see Note 11.1.4), the Company will have to pay, in addition to the projected fixed repayment schedule, if applicable, an annuity equal to:
The sums due to Bpifrance under the terms of this paragraph will be deducted as a priority and in accordance with the final instalment and, as appropriate, the preceding instalments.
The contract entered into between Bpifrance and MYOPOWERS provides for the payment of an additional payment once the company has repaid in full the advances received. The company undertakes, for a period of 4 (four) consecutive years after the date of termination of said repayment and once it has reached a cumulative amount of revenue excluding tax equal to or greater than €20,000,000 (twenty million euros), to pay 1% (one percent) of the annual revenue generated by the exploitation of the products developed thanks to the project.
At 30 June 2021, based on projected revenue, the Company estimated the additional payments. The debt was recognised at amortised cost by recognising €480 thousand of accrued interest.
At this stage, the delays observed in the conduct of clinical trials had negligible effects on the calculation of accrued interest.
The Group benefits from State guaranteed loans (PGE).
These loans were initially recorded at fair value, which corresponds to the cash received, and subsequently recognised using the amortised cost method.
The effective interest rate was determined on the basis of the best estimate of the expected repayment date taking into account the extension option that the company intends to exercise.
During the year 2020, the Group took out four loans guaranteed by the State to strengthen its cash position in the current context of the Covid-19 pandemic.
As at 30 June 2021, loans guaranteed by the State were classified as non-current financial liabilities.

On 26 October 2018, the Company entered into a venture loan agreement with Kreos Capital in the form of a framework agreement organising the issue of a bond loan for an amount of up to €12 million through the issue of one tranche of €4 million and two tranches of up to €4 million each, and the issue of 196,722 share subscription warrants (BSA2018-KREOS).
The venture loan agreement provides for the pledge of the Company's assets (including a share of the Company's intellectual property) for the benefit of Kreos Capital.
Each tranche bears interest at 10% per year. All tranches of non-convertible bonds issued are repayable in 36 monthly instalments with a repayment period of six months.
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company has the option to redeem or buy back non-convertible bonds at any time, provided that it notifies Kreos Capital at least 30 days in advance. The repayment will be equal to (1) the amount of the principal remaining due, increased by (2) the sum of the interest that the Company would have paid over the remaining term of the tranche in question, discounted at the rate of 4% per annum.
Tranche A was issued at the signing of the contract on 29 October 2018, and Tranche B on 1 June 2019. Tranche C will not be drawn down as the deadline of 30 September 2019 has been exceeded and the required conditions are not met.
A guarantee deposit of €256 thousand (€128 thousand per tranche) was retained by Kreos Capital on the payments made. It will be deducted from the last monthly payment. It is presented in "Other non-current financial assets".
Each BSA2018-KREOS gives the right to subscribe to a number of shares N such that N = 6.10/SP with SP as defined below.
The Strike Price (SP) is set at the lower of i) the sum of €6.10 and ii) the lowest price used during the various capital increases that took place between the date of issue of the BSA2018-KREOS warrants and the date of exercise, less a discount of 20%.
The exercise period of each share subscription warrant begins on the issue date and ends on the earliest of: i) the 10th anniversary of the issue date; ii) the date of transfer of ownership of more than 80% of the shares as described in the Shareholders' Agreement; or iii) the fifth anniversary of the Company's IPO.
In accordance with IFRS 9, non-convertible debt is measured using the amortised cost method. At 31 December 2019, the debt was valued at €7.2 million.
After analysis, the share subscription warrants attached to Tranche A (BSA2018-KREOS) were recognised as derivative liabilities and measured at fair value with changes in this fair value recorded in profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 9.
The fair value has been determined by using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following main assumptions:

During the financial year 2020, the KREOS loan was rescheduled for certain monthly maturities. The entire nonconvertible bond (Tranches A and B) now matures in November 2022.
As part of the Company's IPO, Kreos Capital subscribed for Company shares in the amount of €2 million through debt conversion. Accordingly, following this transaction and the rescheduling of certain monthly maturities, a new debt repayment schedule was put in place.
On 10 December 2019, the Company signed a bond loan agreement with Head Leader Limited, Truffle Biomedtech Crossover Fund and Truffle Innov FRR France enabling €8 million to be raised over a period of 60 months from the date of issue.
At the end of this contract, the issuer issued 2,300,000 CBs for the benefit of TRUFFLE Biomedtech Crossover Fund, 1,700,000 for the benefit of Truffle Innov FRR France and 4,000,000 CBs for the benefit of Head Leader Limited for a total of €8 million.
The Company was paid €4 million by the funds managed by Truffle Capital in December 2019.
On 19 June 2020, all of these convertible bonds were redeemed in new shares, generating the issue of 679,116 shares.
The payment of the €4 million from the Head Leader fund took place on 16 October 2020.
The agreement provides for the pledge of certain assets of the Company (the Chinese patent of KALIOS held by KEPHALIOS and 40% of the shares of Shanghai Epygon Medical Technology and Shanghai MyoPowers Medical Technology) for the benefit of the subscribers.
The convertible bonds have the following characteristics:
Accounting treatment
In accordance with IFRS 9, the debt component of convertible bonds was measured using the amortised cost method.
The option to convert the convertible bonds has been separated, recognised in derivative liabilities due to a variable conversion rate and measured at fair value, and changes in this fair value were recorded in the income statement in accordance with IFRS 9.
The fair value has been determined by using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following main assumptions:
| Conversion option – 2019 CBs – Head Leader | Upon issue (10/16/2020) |
31/12/2020 | 30/06/2021 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of outstanding bonds | 4,000,000 | 4,000,000 | 4,000,000 |
| Number of shares that may be subscribed | 4,000,000 | 4,000,000 | 4,000,000 |
| Strike price (1) | €5.00 | €4.00 | €4.00 |
| Expected term | 5 | 0.42 | 0.00 |
| Volatility | 41.09% | 0.00% | 0.00% |
| Risk-free rate | -0.81% | 0.00% | 0.00% |
| Value of the derivative (in thousands of euros) | 1,364 | 1,000 | - |
| Change in fair value over the period (in thousands of euros) | (364) | (1,000) |
(1) According to the contract, the strike price is reduced by 20% in the event of the securities being floated on a regulated market.
On 25 February 2021, Head Leader Limited notified the Company of its request for the redemption of convertible bonds in the event of the listing of the Company's shares for trading on the Euronext Paris regulated securities market. This additional repayment of around €4.1 million (including accrued interest) will be made within 60 business days of the completion of the listing of the Company's shares for trading on the Euronext Paris regulated securities market.
Following the success of the IPO in June 2021, the repayment of the Head Leader debt became certain, resulting in the lapse of the conversion option. Consequently, the fair value of the derivative liability is zero. The change in its fair value during the period was recorded in the income statement for €1.0 million. Unamortised expenses (at the IPO date) on the debt component are spread over a period of 60 working days.

The Group has set aside a provision of €125 thousand for industrial tribunal disputes that arose in 2020. During the first half of 2021, the Company recognised reversals of provisions for an amount of €153 thousand, corresponding to the end of the disputes that were ongoing at 31 December 2020.
In a summons of 12 June 2019, the company Implantica Marketing Limited brought an action for patent infringement before the Paris Court of Justice against the Company and MyoPowers. It asserts that the development of the Artus medical device reproduces, according to the company, certain claims made by the French part of a European patent belonging to it, and seeks compensation for the damage it claims to have suffered. It therefore seeks that the Company and MyoPowers be ordered to pay the sum of €2,000,000 in provisional damages and €500,000 in respect of its alleged moral damage. The Company and MyoPowers have made several claims, notably to demonstrate the invalidity of the patent invoked by Implantica Marketing Limited and, consequently, the absence of infringement. In this regard, in a decision of 4 June 2020 ruling on an application for a provisional ban by Implantica Marketing Limited, the court admitted that there were serious doubts about the validity of the patent invoked, which also expired on 8 February 2021. Consequently, in its decision dated 4 June 2020, the court rejected Implantica Marketing Limited's application seeking an interim ban on the development of the Artus medical device pending a decision on the merits in the patent infringement case. Implantica was ordered to pay an amount of €50 thousand, which has been paid.
Since the decision of 4 June 2020, the proceedings on the merits have resumed: Implantica Marketing Limited has reiterated its claims for damages mentioned above by submissions dated 11 January 2021. On 8 February 2021, the Implantica patent expired.
The procedure is still ongoing at the closing date of the financial statements.
At 31 December 2020 and 30 June 2021, the Company did not record any provisions for risks and charges in respect of this dispute.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for tax losses carried forward when it is more likely than not that the Company will have future taxable profits against which these unused tax losses can be offset.
Deferred tax assets recognized in the amount of deferred tax liabilities are presented as a deduction from these in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Dear Shareholders AFFLUENT MEDICAL 320, avenue Archimède 13100 Aix en Provence France
In accordance with the mission entrusted to us by your General Meeting, and pursuant to Article L. 451-1-2 III of the French Monetary and Financial Code, we have:
The global crisis linked to the Covid-19 pandemic creates special conditions for the preparation and limited review of the condensed half-year consolidated financial statements. Indeed, this crisis and the exceptional measures taken in the context of the health emergency have multiple consequences for companies, particularly on their activity and their financing, as well as increased uncertainties about their future prospects. Some of these measures, such as travel restrictions and remote working, have also had an impact on the internal organisation of companies and the way in which audits are carried out.
These condensed half-year consolidated financial statements were prepared under the responsibility of the Board of Directors. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our limited review.
We conducted our limited review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France.
A limited review consists mainly of meeting with the members of management in charge of accounting and financial aspects and implementing analytical procedures. This work is less extensive than that required for an audit conducted in accordance with the professional standards applicable in France. Consequently, the assurance that the financial statements, taken as a whole, are free from material misstatement obtained during a limited review is a moderate assurance, lower than that obtained in the context of an audit.
Based on our limited review, we did not identify any material misstatements likely to call into question the compliance of the condensed half-year consolidated financial statements with IAS 34, the IFRS standard as adopted in the European Union, relating to interim financial information.
Without calling into question the conclusion expressed above, we draw your attention to Note 2.1 to the halfyear consolidated financial statements, which sets out the main judgments and assumptions used to justify the application of the going concern principle.
We have also verified the information provided in the half-year activity report on the condensed half-year consolidated financial statements subject to our limited review.
We have no matters to report as to their fair presentation and their consistency with the half-year consolidated financial statements.
