Amplitude Surgical – consolidated 9-month sales of €73.5 million, down 1.8% at constant exchange rates

  • Consolidated sales of €73.5 million, -1.8% at constant exchange rates
  • Activity impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, with an acceleration in the first half of April
  • Further growth in Novastep's activity: +32.7% at constant exchange rates

Valence (France), April 22, 2021, 6:00 pm CEST - Amplitude Surgical (ISIN: FR0012789667, Ticker: AMPLI, eligible for PEA-PME plans) ("Amplitude" or the "Group"), leading French player on the global surgical technology market for lower-limb orthopedics, announces its sales for the third quarter of its 2020-21 financial year.

Olivier Jallabert, Amplitude Surgical's CEO, commented: "Amplitude Surgical's activity is continuing to be impacted on most of its markets following the deterioration in the public health situation associated with COVID-19, and notably the adoption of restrictions on access to operating rooms. As a result, the Group's activity was down by 1.8% at constant exchange rates compared with the same period last year, which saw an almost total shutdown in activity from mid-March 2020. During the first half of April 2021, we have observed an acceleration in the impact of the public health crisis, notably on our markets in France, Germany and Brazil. Novastep, meanwhile, is continuing its growth and now accounts for around 13% of the Group's sales, with growth of almost 33% at constant exchange rates over the first 9 months of the year".

Over the first 9 months of its 2020-21 financial year (to end-March 2021), Amplitude Surgical recorded sales of €73.5 million, down 3.8% at current exchange rates and 1.8% at constant exchange rates.

For the third quarter of its 2020-21 financial year (from January to March 2021), Amplitude Surgical posted sales of €27.6 million, up 3.7% at current exchange rates and +4.7% at constant exchange rates. The Group's activity is continuing to be affected by the public health situation and the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, however the cumulative impact of this situation over the last three months was slightly below the estimated €4.2 million impact of the first wave of the pandemic in March 2020 that led to an almost total shutdown in the Group's activity.

  • In France, cumulative sales to the end of March totaled €48.4 million, a slight increase of 0.6%. During the Group's current financial year, activity has been negatively impacted by the successive waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, while last year the estimated negative impact of €3.5 million was only recorded over the second half of March 2020. France thus accounts for 64% of sales;
  • The Group's international activity generated sales of €25.1 million, down 11.3% at current exchange rates and 5.9% at constant exchange rates. The Group's subsidiaries recorded a slight increase of 0.6% at constant exchange rates, to €19.2 million. These subsidiaries were notably negatively impacted by the public health situation associated with COVID-19 in Brazil and Germany, while Novastep's activity in the United States increased. Activity with the Group's distributors fell by 23.4% to €5.9 million;
  • Amplitude Surgical's direct business (French market and international subsidiaries), which accounts for almost 92% of total Group sales, increased by 0.6% at constant exchange rates;
  • Novastep, innovative solutions for foot and ankle surgery, recorded further sales growth over the first nine months of the financial year to €9.5 million (+32.7% at constant exchange rates), driven by the United States (+62.0% at constant exchange rates). Novastep's activity now accounts for approximately 13% of total Group sales.
