Olivier Legrain, Chief Executive Officer of IBA commented: "I am very proud of IBA's good performance and resilience in what has been a challenging year globally. Our long-term strategy aims to build upon our solid business foundation to create sustainable growth and profitability, delivering the very best offering and services to our customers, whilst being a responsible corporate citizen. Our roadmap to achieve this across all four of our business lines is clear: capitalize on our market leading position globally, invest for strategic impact and deliver operational execution.

"A key strategic growth market for us is Asia, particularly China, and we were pleased to sign two significant proton therapy deals in the region in the second half of 2020, as well as a strategic partnership with CGNNT in China. We also delivered strong sales in this region for our Industrial, RadioPharma and Dosimetry businesses. This momentum has continued in 2021, with IBA being selected for the supply of a new Proteus®PLUS solution in China.

"Our pipeline continues to be encouraging and overall, order intake across all business units remains buoyant. This, coupled with our growing recurring revenues in Services and Dosimetry, provides us with confidence for the future. I am grateful for the incredible work of the IBA team over the past year, as well as the continued support of our customers. With a healthy balance sheet and the longterm potential for market development across all four of our businesses, we enter 2021 in a confident position."

Overview

Total net sales were up 14.1% for the full year to EUR 260.9 million, primarily as a result of the CGNNT deal, with licensing revenue of EUR 63.5 million. The remainder of the revenues will be recognized over the next four years as the different components of the contract are delivered to CGNNT
Proton Therapy (PT) equipment revenues were strongly affected by delays in backlog conversion as a result of restrictions related to the pandemic
Two new orders were received for PT equipment, in China and South Korea, with COVID-19 delaying some other new prospects
Other Accelerators equipment sales were up 6%, reflecting continued strong order intake, with 17 systems sold in the period
Services continued to perform well, with a 4.2% increase from 2019. This has resulted in a positive impact on recurring revenues as proton therapy centers remained fully operational. Other Accelerators Services were affected by COVID-19 related difficulties in installing some upgrades
Overall REBIT margin of 14.5%

Proton Therapy

During 2020, IBA maintained its global leadership position in PT, marking the milestone of 100,000 patients treated by IBA customers. Overall, we are focused on capitalizing on our strong presence across regions, developing our customer base and further strengthening our commercial execution.

A core strategic growth area for us is the Asia-Pacific region, particularly China, with both the CGNNT and Chengdu deals a positive reflection of the opportunities there. More broadly in Asia, we see many further opportunities. Post-period end we received the down payment for a Proteus®ONE contract in Korea from the National Cancer Center (NCC) Korea. NCC is an existing IBA customer,

and the expansion of the partnership is a testament to its success over the past 14 years, whilst highlighting how IBA is able to capitalize on its existing agreements. As previously communicated, IBA has also been selected in 2021 for the supply of a multi-room Proteus®PLUS solution in China, with negotiations ongoing.

In the US, we have taken steps to reinforce our presence, including bolstering resources to capture further market share and are seeing a resultant uptick in sales activity. A recent extension of PT indications in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines in the US is also encouraging.

Despite the pandemic leading to overall delays to installations of several months we commenced two PT installations with one in Mumbai, India, and the other in Taipei, Taiwan.

The Services component of our PT business is an important part of our revenue stream and a key focus for us has been on increasing this as a recurring element. Alongside this, we are continuously improving our installed base, driving further operational efficiency. IBA closed the year with a strong system availability performance, achieving 97% in the fourth quarter with similar performances for both Proteus®One and Proteus®PLUS.

In terms of future innovation, we continue to make progress with technologies that we believe are critical to the future of PT. Our focus in the short-term is being able to offer ARC¹ to new and existing customers as a more efficient and simple way to deliver PT. Longer term, we remain committed to partnering with key knowledge leaders around FLASH therapy¹ . Pre-clinical research of FLASH on IBA systems internationally is already underway and future clinical adoption is a key discussion point for IBA's next Clinical Advisory Board.

Post-period end we were pleased to strengthen our long-term collaboration with Elekta, with its latest proton therapy solution, Monaco® treatment planning for protons, receiving FDA 510(k) clearance in March. We also continue to work in close collaboration with RaySearch Laboratories on providing state-of-the-art integrated solutions, as demonstrated at UZ Leuven in Belgium, the first customer to combine IBA's Proteus with the RayCare® and RayStation® technology.

Other Accelerators

Other Accelerators performed strongly in 2020, with a notable second half weighting as a result of the pandemic. There were five new orders in the first half, and 12 in the second half, taking the total for the year to 17. Of these machines, 11 were sold in Asia (five in China), again demonstrating the strong growth in this region. Market recovery has continued into 2021 with four machines sold during the first months of 2021.

The Other Accelerators services and upgrades business performed well despite a slight drop in revenues as upgrade installations were delayed due to the pandemic, continuing to offer services to the largest installed base of accelerators in the world.

Press release | 25/03/2021

¹ ** Arc Therapy and Flash Therapy are currently under research and development phase and will be available for sale when regulatory clearance is received.

IBA RadioPharma Solutions

IBA's leading RadioPharma business helps nuclear medicine departments to design, build and operate Positron Emission Tomography (PET) centers for the production of radiopharmaceuticals used for the detection of cancer. The nuclear medicine market has shown constant growth, increasing by nearly 6% per year over the last seven years² . The division adapted to the changing environment in 2020, including carrying out several successful remote installations of its radiochemistry modules.

The new generation Cyclone® KIUBE cyclotron offers the highest production capacity currently available, enabling increased diagnostic capabilities, whilst producing the widest range of radioisotopes. IBA has also seen strong demand for its high energy accelerators with the sale of two Cyclone® IKON machines. This innovative cyclotron is more compact and matches its customer's need when expanding its offering to meet the growing demand of the nuclear medicine market.

Post-period end, IBA announced an expanded collaboration with NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes to increase global availability of technetium-99m (Tc-99m), the most widely used medical radioisotope.

IBA Industrial Solutions

IBA Industrial provides leading industrial solutions to the ion beam sterilization industry. Our Rhodotron® solution continues to create strong interest in the global market, offering a cleaner alternative to cobalt and ethylene oxide for sterilization, bringing a new perspective to sterilization processes. IBA's new generation Rhodotron® TT1000 enables the production of X-rays to sterilize in much larger volumes, in particular for medical devices, and the first has been recently installed in the Netherlands.

In the short term, IBA will focus on the completion of the new Rhodotron® TT300 HE electron beam accelerator for the production of the radioisotope molybdenum-99 (Mo-99), which has successfully completed its test phase. Looking ahead the focus will be on investing in new features for existing products, whilst exploring potential growth opportunities through new business development.

% of Sales	4.9%	9.1%

* Dosimetry numbers for 2019 include figures for the RadioMed business which was sold end of 2019

Overview

A strong year for Dosimetry with order intake up 10% from the previous year, despite a declining radiotherapy market which was impacted by the pandemic
Strong growth particularly in the Asia-Pacific region
Net sales of EUR 51.1 million (2019: 53.8 million), with 2019 figure including the RadioMed business which was sold at the end of 2019
On a like-for-like basis, sales grew by around 1% versus 2019 and at constant exchange rate, growth would have been nearly 2%
REBIT decreased by EUR 2.4 million against the previous year, due to the disposal of RadioMed at the end of 2019 and investments in new Patient QA products developments
Backlog grew by nearly EUR 2 million in the year, providing a solid start to 2021

IBA Dosimetry is a world leading provider of innovative high-end quality assurance (QA) solutions and imaging markers for radiation diagnostics and therapy.

The Dosimetry business continued to gain market share in QA and conventional radiotherapy in 2020. During the year there were several software updates to the myQA patient Quality Assurance range, increasing IBA's customer offering. There was also continued regulatory progress: myQA iON, the unique Patient QA software solution for proton therapy, received FDA approval in July 2020.

Post-period end, myQA® Phoenix, the high-resolution digital detector array for PT commissioning, was released. IBA continues to invest in its patient QA radiotherapy offering and its market-leading Dosimetry tools for PT.

At the virtual meeting of ASTRO (the American Society for Radiation Oncology) in 2020, IBA Dosimetry attracted strong market attention with its new detectors for Patient QA, myQA SRS and Matrixx Resolution that will be released in the course of 2021, again showcasing IBA as a key driver of innovation in Dosimetry.

Financial review

Group revenue in the year was EUR 312 million, a 10% increase from 2019 (FY19: EUR 282.6 million), largely driven by the licensing revenues from the deal with CGN Nuclear Technology Development Co., Ltd. (CGNNT) in August.

The Proton Therapy Equipment line was affected by delays in backlog conversion as a result of the pandemic. Other Accelerators had a strong year with an increase in revenues of 1.9%. Overall service revenues increased by 4.2% to EUR 112.6 million as IBA's centers remained fully operational. While Proton Therapy services grew by more than 7%, Other Accelerator services dropped slightly as upgrade installations were delayed due to the pandemic. Dosimetry also had a good year in spite of the pandemic's challenges, with a strong order intake and revenues. Net sales declined by 5.2% due to the change in scope stemming from the sale of RadioMed in 2019, but increased by 1% on a like-for-like basis.

At the operating expenses line, while there was a strong decrease in selling and marketing costs due to the lower level of travel and marketing expenditure related to the pandemic, there was an uptick in R&D as the Group invested in the future growth of the business, and G&A increased, largely due to write-downs on some customers facing difficulties due to COVID-19. The combination of these effects led to an overall increase in operating expenses of 2.8%. Excluding these effects, OPEX would have remained flat from 2020.

The recurring operating profit before interest and taxes (REBIT) line increased substantially to EUR 40.4 million from EUR 0.1 million, as a result of the increase in group revenue noted above.

Other operating expenses in the year were EUR 0.4 million (FY19: EUR 14.6 million income), with the prior year's number reflecting the gain on the disposal of RadioMed and a gain on the sale of intellectual property on hadron therapy. Financial expenses predominantly included interest on credit lines and foreign exchange fluctuations and benefited from EUR/USD rates over the first half. Taxes were impacted by current tax credits in certain countries and a positive impact from deferred tax assets recognized over the period.

As a result of the above effects, IBA reported a net profit of EUR 31.9 million compared to a net profit of EUR 7.6 million in 2019.

Operating cash flow during 2020 was EUR 100.4 million, up from EUR 48.6 million in 2019. This was primarily due to the increase in profit but also reflects a positive movement in working capital as a result of excellent cash collection and close inventory management.

Cash flow used in investing was EUR 5.6 million, mostly for maintenance CAPEX and investments related to Dosimetry's software developments. This compared with an inflow of EUR 1.8 million for 2019, where the sale of RadioMed positively contributed.

Cash flow generated from financing was EUR 13.4 million, mostly as a result of a drawdown on a term loan at the beginning of 2020 for EUR 21 million, which was adjusted down by repayments on other loans and lease liabilities.

The balance sheet significantly strengthened with a year-end net cash position of EUR 65.2 million compared with a net debt position of EUR 21.3 million in the previous year.

COVID-19 update

As a global business, the COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdown restrictions impacted the signing and installation of new contracts. While elements such as the postponement of certain new orders for equipment and upgrades had an indirect impact, that is material, but difficult to estimate, several elements contributed to a direct financial impact of at least EUR 15 million:

Postponed revenues for existing Proton Therapy and Other Accelerator equipment contracts and upgrades. As installations across all accelerator businesses shifted due to difficulties in accessing client sites, several installations of both new equipment and upgrades were either prolonged or delayed, leading to additional costs and shifting revenues to a future period
Difficult financial situation for some proton therapy centers, leading IBA to recognize writedowns on some receivables in line with Group accounting policies, while at the same time working on solutions to support our customers to get through this difficult period
Additional expenses related to COVID-19 prevention and equipment
All of the above were partially compensated by a lower level of travel activity and related expenses.

Dividend policy

IBA has successfully continued the transformation of its business model that began several years ago. Its strong business foundation is increasingly based on recurring revenues supported by proton therapy service contracts that have steadily increased over the past few years. The resilience of its markets, mainly linked to healthcare, has been demonstrated again in this year of COVID-19.

IBA's technological leadership is reflected in our strong market share, in existing markets and allows us to enter new markets when the opportunity arises. We have been able to harness our technological leadership to strengthen our presence in Asia and in particular in China, one of our main markets, by forging a strategic partnership with a major Chinese company, CGNNT, to ensure mutual success in this growing market.

Despite the complex situation created by the pandemic, IBA continued to have good order intake and maintained its record backlog. The company improved its financial position by around EUR 86 million, ending the year with EUR 65.2 million in net cash without resorting to new capital.

Based on this significant strengthening of its resources, confidence in the growing proportion of recurring revenues and in order to retain an engaged long-term shareholding, the Board will propose to the Annual General Meeting a change to IBA's dividend policy. The Board believes that the dividend policy should allow IBA to deliver consistent value to its shareholders while protecting its resources in adverse operating conditions such as those experienced in 2020 and maintaining its

capacity to invest strategically to capture further potential. It will therefore propose a move towards a progressive dividend policy with the intention of paying out a stable, or slightly growing, dividend each year that acknowledges the fluctuations of annual financial results, but reflects the performance of the company over the longer term.

In line with this new policy, the Board of Directors intends to recommend to the Annual General Meeting that a gross dividend of EUR 0.2 per share be paid in 2021.

Outlook

Whilst 2020 presented challenges to IBA due to the global pandemic, considerable resilience was shown across all of the business lines. We were encouraged in particular by the overall improvement in performance in the second half.

The situation remains complex in 2021 with regards to installations of projects and IBA continues to closely monitor the situation.

Other Accelerators and Dosimetry continue to have a healthy order intake, and in Proton Therapy new contracts are on the horizon in key strategic regions. IBA remains committed to progressing new tenders internationally and the overall pipeline is encouraging. Service activities in all businesses continue to provide stable recurring revenues and backlog remains high.

The business is underpinned by a strong balance sheet and an excellent cash position and R&D investment will continue to be a core aspect of our plan for longer-term growth.

However, given the ongoing COVID-19 conditions, IBA remains unable to provide reliable projected 2021 performance at this time. The Group continues to focus on delivering value to its stakeholders and is committed to remaining the leader in all of its markets, while driving efficiency across the board.
