REPORT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
Bioxyne Limited (ASX Code: BXN) (Bioxyne or the Company) is pleased to report on its activities for the quarter ended 30 September 2021.
Highlights
-
Positive operating cash flow for the quarter
-
Cash increased to $1.7 million at quarter end
-
Revenues 4.5% under same quarter previous year at $0.8m
-
Forward orders for PCC probiotics and direct sales H1 2022 will exceed H1 2021
-
Successful trial of Colostrum Coffee product, first order Q2 FY2022
Results
The Company’s core wholesale sales of Lactobacillus fermentum PCC® is the major revenue. On-going COVID-19 restrictions continue to weigh on those markets where the Company is Direct Selling. However, with easing of restrictions in both Malaysia and Indonesia and international borders cautiously re-opening, there are early signs of economic activities rebounding.
Sales revenue (unaudited) for Q1 FY 2022 was $804k (Q1 FY 2021: $843k), 4.5% down on the same quarter in the prior year attributed to exchange rate movements.
The unaudited result for the quarter was a profit of $136k (Q1 FY21: Profit of $207k), the decrease attributable to the lower sales revenue.
The Company achieved $45k Operating cashflow positive for the quarter. Cash at the end of the quarter $1.7m.

Wholesale sales of Lactobacillus fermentum PCC® were the major contributor to revenue, however pleasingly Indonesia continued with its modest recovery with revenue of $45k for the quarter.
The order of ColosNZ to South East Asia with value ~$312k has been delayed to Q2 FY2022.
The Company has successfully trialled a colostrum coffee product during the quarter. We have identified significant interest in Asia for this product, and expect to receive a first material order in Q2 FY 2022.
The Bioxyne product suite comprises:
Progastrim™ (PCC®) - clinically tested proprietary patented probiotic, for general gut health and immune support
Mymana – colostrum and fortified milk formula for nutrition and immune support
ColosNZ – enhanced colostrum and fortified milk formula for nutrition and immune support
Col-Coffee - Colostrum three in one powder coffee mix
BK18 – NZ dairy-based formula with probiotics and vitamins for general health and immune
support
Allura – weight management and beauty drink for women
Mustang – weight management and vitality shake for men
BEssence – beauty range
Cost saving/new business opportunities focus
Early indications of resumption of economic activities from easing of restrictions in Malaysia and Indonesia are evident from forward orders received in our direct sales business.
Notwithstanding, the Company remains focused on managing its costs and is actively seeking acquisitions of businesses or products to broaden its operating base which would build shareholder value.
Corporate
Cash on hand as at 30 September 2021 amounted to $1.7 million.
Payments to related parties and their associates during the quarter of $45,000 comprise director and non-executive director salaries, fees and superannuation.
