Biohit Oyj Half Year Financial Report 10 August 2022 at 9:30 am local time (EET)

The main target for the year 2022 is to strengthen our profitability and according to the half -year result we have managed to follow the plan satisfyingly. Our revenue rose to 6.1 million euros which is 2.1 million euros and 53 percent more than in H1/2021. Operative EBITDA adjusted for items affecting comparability increased to 1.7 million euros (-0.2 million euros) and EBIT to 1.3 million euros (-1.2 million euros).
The revenue growth has been broad based. One of the main contributors to this trend has been the multiyear distribution agreement signed in February with Biohit HealthCare (Hefei) Co. Ltd on certain GastroPanel products. The royalties will raise our revenue in 2022. The sales generated by this agreement will stabilise our business in the future.
In addition to China, the growth was solid especially in the UK where our agile and traditionally well-performing subsidiary reached their ambitious budget targets.
What comes to the Acetium product family, the biggest news is the launch of the Lozenge in Switzerland on the 31st of May 2022, the World No Tobacco Day. Acetium Lozenge is the only nicotine free quit-smoking product on the market and our Swiss distributor, Gebro Pharma GmbH has committed to large scale marketing investments. A successful launch in Switzerland would open doors to other Central European markets. The Lozenge is patented in 64 countries.
The shadow casted by COVID-19 has turned out to be longer than expected. Our delivery chains suffered during the spring due to Shanghai lockdowns.
War in Ukraine has caused indirect impacts on our business. Higher energy prices and inflation in general put pressure on our cost side. Weakened global risk sentiment has caused turbulence in financial markets resulting declining financial earnings and especially lower valuation of our Genetic Analysis AS ownership.
Otherwise, we see a promising future in front of us. There is a growing demand for our products and Biohit innovations are a strong base for profitable business. We will develop new products and make the future product versions even more user friendly. Good examples of customer driven approach are the GastroPanel QuickTest, especially with the finger prick option which has been CE marked, and whose market launch is under preparation, and the GastroPanel 4-in-1 ELISA product, which was launched in August 2022.
Biohit has received funding from the EU and Business Finland for two R&D projects. The grant funding amounts to 0.9 million euros, of which 0.1 million euros is deferred to the review period. The Center for Economic Development, Transport, and the Environment has granted Biohit Oyj a development amendment totaling 0.2 million euros. The amendment did not have any financial impact during the review period.
Biohit's relatively strong balance sheet and equity ratio (70.7%) create a solid foundation for future product and business development. Our innovation base is strong, and we work determinedly towards fully utilizing the commercial potential of it.
Cash at the end the period was 1.6 million euros (1.1 million euros on December 31, 2021). Company liquidity is good.
Biohit expects its EBIT to be positive in 2022 (2021: -1.5 million euros).
The main risks are linked to weakening global economic outlook and rising inflation that is a threat to cost competitiveness.
More information on the risks can be found in the section Short-term risks and uncertainty factors.
Biohit expects its 2022 profitability to improve comparing with 2021 (2021: EUR -1.5 million).
The prolonged COVID-19 casts a shadow as it stresses healthcare resources and limits the demand for other diagnostics.
Biohit's product portfolio consists of diagnostic tests, analysis systems, products binding carcinogenic acetaldehyde into a harmless compound, monoclonal antibodies, as well as service laboratory operations. The entire product and service portfolio is reported under a single segment.

On the 30th June 2022, the balance sheet totaled to EUR 11.4 million (EUR 9.6 million 31 December 2021). At the end of the review period our company's equity ratio was 70.7% (76.3% 31 December 2021).
Our financial position has remained steady. On the 30th June 2022, company financial assets totaled EUR 5.4 million (EUR 4.6 million 31 December 2021). This does not include Genetic Analysis AS shares.
The company has managed to keep its working capital on a good level and the management believes that working capital and the company's other financial assets will cover the operations for the next 12 months. The company is not dependent on external financing to be able to guarantee the continuity of its operations. Cash flow from operating activities was EUR 1.0 million during the review period 1-6/2022. According to company's management, the company's ability to continue its operations is good and there are no indications towards events or circumstances that alone or together might give a significant reason to doubt the organisation's ability to continue its operations.
R&D operations focus on innovations, product development and improved usability. Biohit also employs external experts and subcontractors in its R&D operations. Research and development expenditure, excluding depreciation and amortization, during the reporting period H1/2022 amounted to EUR 0.6 million (EUR 0.7 million). Development expenditure has not been capitalized.
The GastroPanel® product family that is intended for the first-line diagnosis of dyspepsia, was expanded with GastroPanel 4-in-1™ and the GastroPanel® quick test to include finger prick whole blood samples during the reporting period.
The GastroPanel 4-in-1™ product has been developed in response to end-user feedback and is based on the commercially available GastroPanel® Unified product that utilizes ELISA technology. Instead of four separate test plates, all four GastroPanel® biomarkers reside on a single test plate in the GastroPanel 4-in-1™ product. This shortens the turnaround time of GastroPanel® analysis and brings more usability to perform the test. A plasma sample is suitable for the test, and 18 patient samples can be analyzed either manually or automatically with one test plate.
The finger prick whole blood test of GastroPanel® quick test has been CE marked and its market launch is under preparation. Clinical studies of the GastroPanel® quick test based on lateral flow technology have been continued in the Asia-Pacific region in two different hospitals. For finger prick whole blood sample, the results show 82.3% agreement when compared with the results obtained from gastric endoscopy and biopsy samples from 98 patients suffering from dyspeptic symptoms. The 20-minute turnaround time of the test, the ease of use, and the accuracy of the result have received good end-user feedback from the study site. Clinical studies are further continued as IVDR post-market surveillance studies.
Gross investments during the H1/2022 reporting period totaled EUR 0.0 million (EUR 0.0 million).
During the review period, the Biohit Group employed on average 44 (46) people, of whom 35 (37) were employed by the parent company and 9 (9) by the subsidiaries.
Biohit's key risks are related to prolongation of the coronavirus pandemic, the success of product registrations and the selection and development of new market areas and distribution channels.
New COVID lockdowns would have a negative impact on global delivery chains.
Rising inflation and especially higher cargo tariffs are a thread to Biohit's competitiveness.
The diagnostic industry is heavily regulated, and this may have an effect on Biohit's sales. The duration of the product registration process is different in each market area. For this reason, it is not possible to accurately assess the time taken for the authorities to handle registrations and for product sales to begin.
New IVDR EU regulation means launching new products will take longer as there are bottle necks in the system such as a limited number of notified bodies.
When investing liquid assets, the objective is to gain a return on investment with a low risk of equity loss. The investment portfolio consists of deposits, investment funds and corporate loans. A fundamental aspect in portfolio management is sufficient diversification across different asset classes, investment instruments and counterparties. The investment portfolio is subject to equity risk that is managed by diversification and allocation decisions. The portfolio is also subject to interest rate risk, which is managed by adjusting the duration of the portfolio. In addition, general instability in the financial markets impacts negatively on the value of the investment portfolio.
The Group's investment in listed Genetic Analysis AS is subject to changes in share price and EUR/NOK foreign exchange rate.
Biohit's customer base is widely diversified, with the exception of certain GastroPanel® products sales in China, which currently represents a major single business for Biohit. Otherwise the company is not significantly dependent on individual customers or project deliveries.
Balance sheet and sales of the Biohit's UK subsidiary are in GBP. As a result, Biohit is exposed to risk of GBP weakening. Otherwise, most of the company's business is conducted in EUR and the indirect effects of currency exchange rate fluctuations are considered insignificant.
Prolonged crisis in Ukraine is a risk factor. Indirect implications like inflation and financial market turbulence could have negative impact on Biohit.

Biohit Oyj's ("Biohit") shareholder Biohit HealthCare (Hefei) Co. Ltd ("Hefei") acts as the exclusive distributor of Biohit's certain GastroPanel products in China. Earlier, there has been a dispute between the companies regarding the application of the patent license agreement pertaining to the distribution cooperation. In order to resolve the dispute and some other controversies and claims related to the agreement between the parties, Biohit has submitted an application for the initiation of arbitration proceedings to the Arbitration Institute of the Finland Chamber of Commerce in May 2021. The parties have now on this date reached a settlement due to which the arbitration proceedings between the parties will be terminated with a withdrawal of the submission, provided that certain conditions are met within the agreed timeframe.
Biohit has previously estimated that 2021 revenue will grow significantly compared to 2020. No guidance has been given on profitability. After the settlement, Biohit estimates its revenue to grow by 31% to EUR 9.4 million (in 2020 EUR 7.1 million) and EBITDA to turn positive to EUR 0.5 million (in 2020 EUR -1.2 million). EBIT for the financial period of 2021 will be negative, approximately EUR -1.5 million (in 2020 EUR -3.2 million), due to depreciations from the China patents. These depreciations ended as planned in 2021. The figures are based on a preliminary financial statement, and they have not been audited. Biohit will release 2021 financial statement on February 16, 2022.
The parties have also agreed on new multiannual distribution agreement for certain GastroPanel products in China. This agreement will stabilize Biohit's outlook for the upcoming years.
As part of the settlement, Hefei has pledged 1.5 million of its class B shares in Biohit to Biohit as security for its payment obligations under the new distribution agreement. This pledge is conditional on Biohit's Board of Directors adopting a decision on the pledge pursuant to the authorization given by the general meeting. Biohit's Board of Directors will convene an extraordinary general meeting without undue delay to decide on the grant of such authorization. A separate notice of this will be sent to the shareholders.
Biohit Oyj ("Company") and Biohit HealthCare (Hefei) Co. Ltd. ("Hefei") have on 8 February 2022 entered into a security agreement. Pursuant to such agreement, Hefei has pledged to the Company 1,500,000 class B shares in the Company as security for its obligations referred to therein (the "Hefei Pledge").
Company's extraordinary general meeting of shareholders has on 9 March 2022 resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to resolve on accepting a maximum total amount of 3,000,000 class B shares in the Company as pledge on the terms deemed fit by the Board of Directors.
Extraordinary general meeting also decided to authorize the Board of Directors to decide on the issue of a maximum total amount of 3,000,000 class B shares in the company by way of derogation from the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription rights. The class B shares to be issued must consist of own shares pledged to the company.
The Board of Directors of the Company decided on 9 March 2022, in accordance with the security agreement and authorization referred to above, resolved to accept the Hefei Pledge.

Biohit Group presents certain alternative performance measures to reflect the underlying business performance and to enhance comparability between financial periods in accordance with ESMA's (European Securities and Markets Authority) guidance.

*On 30 June 2021 level 3 included single corporate bond and shares of Genetic Analysis AS, which listed 1 October 2021.
The company has classified the hierarchies of financial assets according to the availability of data on market terms and other price data.
The fair values on level 1 of the hierarchy are based on the quoted (unadjusted) prices of identical assets or liabilities on active markets. The group has mainly used valuations provided by its asset management partner as a source of price data for determining the fair value of these instruments. The company has verified that the price data represents genuine, frequent market transactions involving the instruments in question.
In significant part, the fair values of level 2 instruments are based on other input data than the quoted prices included in level 1, although this data can be obtained for the assets or liabilities in question either directly (as a price) or indirectly (as a derivative of the price). The Group uses generally accepted valuation models to determine the fair values of these instruments and the input data for these models are based in significant part on observable market data.
The level in the fair value hierarchy at which a certain item measured at fair value is classified overall is determined based on the significant input data on the lowest level with regard to the entire item measured at fair value. The significance of input data is evaluated in its entirety in relation to the item valued at fair value.
The original book value of other receivables corresponds to their fair value because the effect of discounting is negligible in view of the maturity of the receivables.
