BEST SECOND QUARTER SALES EVER FOR MEDICAL IMAGING. INIFY PROSTATE DELIVERS IMPRESSIVE ACCURACY IN ONGOING CLINICAL EVALUATIONS.
FREDRIK PALM, THE COMPANY'S CEO COMMENTED:
Sales in the second quarter ended at 24.4 MSEK, an increase of 20% compared with the previous quarter and the best second quarter sales ever for the company. It represents an increase of 32% compared with the same quarter 2020 if adjusted for currency effects. We see this as a sign of recovery from the pandemic, although we still expect some uncertainties to remain throughout 2021. EBITDA ended at -0.1 MSEK, as our ongoing product development projects have not yet reached capitalization stage. Cash position was 50.8 MSEK at the end of the quarter.
Medical Imaging
The second quarter has been a very eventful one. We have seen a significant pickup in revenue for our image enhancement software, resulting in our best second quarter ever – due mainly to a catch up in the market, but also in a few cases to timing of customer orders. Most of the increase is seen in ultrasound, mainly in the Asia region.
During the period we signed new contracts with several key customers, thus continuing to strengthen and extend our long-term partnerships over multiple markets and product cycles. New contracts have been signed for both Rivent (Ultrasound) and Altumira (X-ray). Rivent continues to be well-received by our customers, with its stronger processing and ability to push image quality even further. Altumira is also growing thanks to its excellent and robust image quality, based on a combination of AI and ContextVision's proprietary advanced algorithms.
As indicated by revenue numbers, there has been a slight increase in market momentum, which is also noticeable in the new customer projects being initiated, and other projects previously on hold now being restarted. Our continuous efforts to improve our work processes and develop new tools have proven effective, and multiple projects have been successfully delivered despite the lack of on-site visits. These improvements will continue to serve us well after the Corona situation fades, from a both quality and efficiency perspective.
Over the period the organization has also grown, with the recruitment of several key individuals within the R&D organization as well as the Business Unit. These new additions will all contribute to our continued development of the Medical Imaging Business Unit.
We look forward to Q3 with confidence, and are planning to gradually start traveling to our customers as well as to attend the most important congresses, such as RSNA in Chicago (the largest radiology congress, held in Nov) – given that the pandemic situation allows it.
Digital Pathology
In our continued focus on market entry via clinical evaluations, we have strengthened our relationship with Linköping University Hospital – which has long experience of working digitally – by including them in the European sites already clinically testing INIFY Prostate.
As announced in early July, we were successful in including two US sites – the prestigious Ohio State University and Tufts Medical Centre – in our global clinical evaluation community during the second quarter.
We have also intensified our interaction with new potential customers, while furthering relations with established sites. It is rewarding to see the positive response to our demonstrations of INIFY's impressive accuracy in identifying and outlining cancer areas.
While there is a high focus on digitalization within pathology, few laboratories are as yet fully digitalized. However, the greater part of the laboratories in Europe and the US are beginning their digital transformation. This transformation requires new hardware and software, additional staff training and new ways of working, making it a large step to take. High-performing algorithms that support the pathologists in their daily challenges are a vital key to improved efficiency, consistency and, ultimately, quality. With our skilled technical and application staff providing valuable support in this transformation, we move towards improved diagnostics and patient value together with the clinical field.
New chairman of the board
In the second quarter we welcomed our new chairman of the board, Olof Sandén, elected at the annual general meeting. Sandén brings extensive experience from international business and the medical device industry, with senior positions at Elekta, RISE, Business Sweden, BCG and others. Today he holds several board positions, along with his daily work as partner at an executive search firm. This strong addition to our organization is of great importance to our development journey.
Summary
The first six months of the fiscal year have certainly taken us forward.
Our team's relentless dedication to making progress despite the pandemic has been the key to continued success. Step by step, business within our business unit Medical Imaging appears to be returning to normal. While our second quarter sales record is a sign in itself, even more important from a longer perspective is seeing new projects, as well as those previously put on hold, being started or reactivated. I am hopeful that we can return to our intended growth plan in this business segment, where we have all the prerequisites in place to continue our progress.
CONTEXTVISION AB 556377-8900//SECOND QUARTER 2021 FINANCIAL REPORT/PAGE 3 OF 14
We have advanced our position within business unit Digital Pathology by focusing on setting up clinical evaluations with key laboratories and reference sites. Multiple centers in Europe – and now also the first formal ones in the US – are currently either running evaluations or in a detailed planning phase, which builds a solid foundation for future business growth. Preliminary feedback on INIFY Prostate from several test centers indicates impressive accuracy. As we work with a long-term mindset, this positive customer feedback is truly encouraging; it serves as proof that our high-resolution, pixel-level approach, based on patented annotation methods, provides great pathology support, which will in turn benefit patients.
Our continuous focus on stepwise progress, close collaboration with existing and prospective customers, and strong organization are cornerstones in our journey toward success.

- The increase in the external costs compared to the same quarter previous year is mostly explained by the lower level of capitalization. Part of the increase relates to increasing costs for consultants for research and development projects and for the ongoing clinical studies within Digital Pathology.
- The increase in personnel costs partly relates to the decrease in capitalization compared to Q2 2020, but also to an increase in the number of employees. Personnel costs during 2020 were also temporarily affected by a governmental subsidy of social security fees during the pandemic.
