A. PRESENTATION OF MEDIAN TECHNOLOGIES

Our mission, our vision

Since 2002, Median Technologies has been pushing the boundaries in exploitation and analysis of imaging data in the medical world with a focus on cancer and chronic disease. We develop innovative imaging solutions, which create progress in health solutions for everyone and are opening the field of predictive and personalized medicine, which is the medicine of tomorrow. Medical images reveal diseases as they truly are, at all stages, and make it possible to follow their evolution non-invasively.

Using the power of medical images is essential for accelerating Clinical innovation, drug development, and improving patient treatment.

A leading company in medical imaging

We deliver our solutions and services worldwide.

We are present in the United States, currently the largest market in the domain of clinical trials and of health, in Europe as well as in Asia, a rapidly growing region in the health and clinical development market.

Ourshareholder structure, which includes major Chinese, American, Japanese, and European shareholders, reflects this global positioning.

Innovative medical imaging solutions

Median provides innovative imaging services for clinical trials in oncology and integrates the latest advancements in artificial intelligence in its platforms to access information which has been, until present, inaccessible, contained in medical images.

Our two proprietary platforms, iSee® for imaging services in clinical trials and iBiopsy® for non-invasive diagnostics based on imaging, exploit the power of medical images to accelerate therapeutic innovation and improve the treatment of patients suffering from cancer and other chronic illnesses.

Since the company's creation, we have formed trusted partnerships with leading medical centres throughout the world and strategic collaborations with technological industries who are leaders in their fields worldwide. We are changing the stakes: by combining science, technology, quality, and operational excellence, this allows a unique approach to the way in which medical images may contribute to the deployment of personalized and predictive medicine and lead to better results for patients.

Our corporate values

As individuals and as a team, we are guided by four corporate values which we hold essential: give meaning to innovation, assist our clients to reach their goals, put quality at the heart of our know-how and our savoir-faire, and consider patients first. These values define who we are, what we do, the way that we do it, and what we aspire to be.

Behind our technology, our teams

We strive to apply these values in our relations between co-workers within the company, in our relations with our clients and with our partners; these values are also central for all of the solutions that we develop and the projects on which we work. We are changing the way that medical images are used in clinical trials and in patient care, we extract the most advanced, imaging bio-markers non-invasively, so that this becomes the standard for developing new therapies, for the diagnosis of patient diseases and illnesses. In our day-to-day work, there is no greater satisfaction than making a difference that will assist in saving or improving the lives of millions of patients.

Our Management Team and Board of Directors

Our executive team combines high-calibre expertise from a global scale that intersects with artificial intelligence, image analysis, and data science, applied to contexts of patient care and drug development.

Our board of administration shares its vision of the sectors of industry, finance, healthcare, and pharmacy in order to give the company its strategic direction.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS THAT HAVE OCCURRED SINCE JUNE 30, 2020- 12 -

Continuity of business:

In light of cash and cash equivalents amounting to €19.4M as of 30 June 2020, the Group believes that it has sufficient cash at bank and in hand to meet its cash-flow needs related to its business and its investments for the 12 months following the closing date. It should be noted that in the 15 months following the release of the first tranche (occurring on 17 April 2020), the Group must provide the European Investment Bank proof that one or more capital increases have occurred for the company. Should this condition precedent not be met, several cases might arise:

  • Capital increases of less than 10 million euros – the European Investment Bank may cancel the portion of tranche A that has not been released and/or demand the early repayment of the outstanding loan as well as interest incurred and all other amounts incurred or outstanding.
  • Capital increases situated between 10 and 15 million euros – the PIK interest rate applicable to tranche A will be increased to 8% and interest will be owed retroactively as if it had been 8% from the release date and this shall apply up until capital increases reach €15 million. (The current applicable rate is 6%).

The Group is confident of its ability to increase its capital, particularly by raising funds on the markets. This type of operation has already been successfully undertaken in the past. The Group therefore believes that it has sufficient cash at bank and in hand to meet its cash-flow needs related to its business and its investments for the 12 months following the closing date. The above-mentioned elements make it possible to establish the annual financial statements at 30 June 2020 following the principle of continuity of business for the coming 12 months.

A. ORDINARY ACTIVITIES IN THE FIRST HALF OF 2020

NOTE 1 THE ICRO ACTIVITY

For the first half of 2020, Median Technologies revenues amounted to €5.93M, a 47.8% increase compared to the first half of 2019, which amounted to €4M. In all, the trend towards increasing revenues has now continued over seven consecutive quarters. Revenues were 100% generated by the iCRO Business Unit which provides image management solutions and services for clinical trials in oncology.

As of June 30, 2020, the Group's order book was €53.6 million, that is €15.3 million above December 31, 2019 and €9.2 million above March 30, 2020. It was €30.7 million as of 30 June 2019, that being an increase of €22.9 million (+74.6%) in one year.

This order book was reinforced this semester thanks to particularly large orders received in Europe for phase III studies with major global pharmaceutical laboratories. The size of the order book makes it possible to be quite confident about revenues to be generated in coming quarters.

NOTE 2 THE IBIOPSY® ACTIVITY

In the first half of 2020, Median accelerated its investments in the development and validation of its imaging phenomics platform iBiopsy®, it signed a first partnership with AP-HP, structured iBiopsy® around three clinical development plans for which the first phases of clinical validation have been initiated. Median, furthermore, communicated the first results concerning the validation of the iBiopsy® technology in the context of evaluating the risk of recurrence in patients suffering from HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma).

The iBiopsy® business is in the R&D investment phase and it is not generating revenue at this stage.

NOTE 3 GROUP CASH POSITION

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to €19.4 million as of June 30, 2020.

This amount includes the payment of €15 million corresponding to the first tranche of the €35 million loan granted by the European Investment Bank (EIB). To review: the loan seeks to accelerate investment in Median's innovation program for its imaging phenomics platform, iBiopsy®. The financial arrangement allows the company to borrow up to 35 million euros.

The second and third tranches, each amounting to 10 million euros, may be drawn at the discretion of Median Technologies, subject to reaching a set of operational and financial performance criteria agreed with the EIB.

This type of financing, agreed by the EIB, which is covered by a guaranty from the European Commission as part of the European Fund for Strategic Investments (known as the "Juncker Plan"), is intended to support innovative research projects developed by companies with high growth potential.

Median Technologies meets these criteria as its iBiopsy® technology platform has the potential to have an impact on the life of hundreds of thousands of patients throughout the world.

NOTE 4 BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Dr. Oern Stuge joined the Board of Directors chaired by Oran Muduroglu. This appointment was approved during the Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meeting that was held last 19 June.

NOTE 5 THE COVID-19 HEALTH CRISIS

Median Technologies continues to follow all of the measures ordered by the government and therefore has retained the vast majority of its employees through remote work as soon as this was possible. The company is perfectly equipped to confront the current and future challenges implied by Covid 19:

• For many years, Median Technologies has been working using robust cloud-based infrastructures which are used on a daily basis to deliver imaging services (iCRO) to its clients and partners worldwide. Median Technologies' business continuity plan is in place and has been operating without interruption since the beginning of the crisis. The Group continues to deliver its services and its imaging operations as normal.

For Median's iCRO activity, the project leads, the investigator site directors, the image managers, the quality team and the account managers remain operational and available, in the same manner as they are under normal conditions.

• The research and development activities related to the iBiopsy® Business Unit continue to run in their normal manner, thanks to the development infrastructures in place for many months and utilized daily in normal time.

• Finally, all of the support teams (IT, administration, human resources, financial services, communication and marketing, legal department) continue to provide the best service possible to the group's two business units.

In parallel, all of the measures implemented by the French government during this period have been and will be examined by the Group's finance department in order to ensure the group's continuity in the best possible conditions. The results clearly show that despite the health crisis, all of the company's teams have continued to be fully involved since the beginning of the year 2020, the company's revenues as well as its orders book have not stopped growing, posting increasing numbers each quarter.

F. NOTES ANNEXED TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DRAWN UP IN ACCORDANCE TO IFRS STANDARDS

NOTE 1 PRESENTATION OF MAJOR EVENTS

a) iCRO activity

For the first half of 2020, Median Technologies revenues amounted to €5.9M, a 47.8% increase compared to the first half of 2019, which amounted to €3.9M. In all, the trend towards increasing revenues has now continued over seven consecutive quarters. Revenues were 100% generated by the iCRO Business Unit which provides image management solutions and services for clinical trials in oncology.

As of June 30, 2020, the Group's order book was €53.6 million, that is €15.3 million above December 31, 2019 and €9.2 million above March 30, 2020. It was €30.7 million as of June 30, 2019, that being an increase of €22.9 million (+74.6%) in one year. This order book was reinforced this semester thanks to particularly large orders received in Europe for phase III studies with major global pharmaceutical laboratories. The size of the order book makes it possible to be quite confident about revenues to be generated in coming quarters.

b) iBiopsy® activity

In the first half of 2020, Median accelerated its investments in the development and validation of its imaging phenomics platform iBiopsy®, it signed a first partnership with AP-HP, structured iBiopsy® around three clinical development plans for which the first phases of clinical validation have been initiated. Median, furthermore, communicated the first results concerning the validation of the iBiopsy® technology in the context of evaluating the risk of recurrence in patients suffering from HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma). The iBiopsy® business is in the R&D investment phase and it is not generating revenue at this stage.

c) Cash position

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to €19.4 million as of June 30, 2020. This amount includes the payment of €15 million corresponding to the first tranche of the €35 million loan granted by the European Investment Bank (EIB). To review: the loan seeks to accelerate investment in Median's innovation program for its imaging phenomics platform, iBiopsy®. The financial arrangement allows the company to borrow up to 35 million euros. The second and third tranches, each amounting to 10 million euros, may be drawn at the discretion of Median Technologies, subject to reaching a set of operational and financial performance criteria agreed with the EIB. This type of financing, agreed by the EIB, which is covered by a guaranty from the European Commission as part of the European Fund for Strategic Investments (known as the "Juncker Plan"), is intended to support innovative research projects developed by companies with high growth potential. Median Technologies meets these criteria as its iBiopsy® technology platform has the potential to have an impact on the life of hundreds of thousands of patients throughout the world.

d) Board of Directors

Dr Oern Stuge has contributed to Median his broad expertise in the Life Sciences industry, as well as his unique vision and experience in corporate development, including strategies for market access and growth of Medtech companies. He is currently president of the Orsco Lifesciences AG company where he acts in several advisory capacities and is an executive and non-executive member of the boards of directors of several companies. Over the last nine years, Dr. Stuge has participated in the development of companies, seven of which were successfully sold or had an initial public offering: five of these companies were sold thanks to improvements in their strategic positions and operations, and two had successful initial public offerings (Euronext Paris / ESM, Dublin, NASDAQ, Stockholm).

e) The COVID-19 health crisis

Median Technologies continues to follow all of the measures ordered by the government and therefore has retained the vast majority of its employees through remote work as soon as this was possible. The company is perfectly equipped to confront the current and future challenges implied by Covid 19:

  • For many years, Median Technologies has been working using robust cloud-based infrastructures which are used on a daily basis to deliver imaging services (iCRO) to its clients and partners worldwide. Median Technologies' business continuity plan is in place and has been operating without interruption since the beginning of the crisis. The Group continues to deliver its services and its imaging operations as normal. For Median's iCRO activity, the project leads, the investigator site directors, the image managers, the quality team and the account managers remain operational and available, in the same manner as they are under normal conditions.
  • The research and development activities related to the iBiopsy® Business Unit continue to run in their normal manner, thanks to the development infrastructures in place for many months and utilized daily in normal time.
  • Finally, all of the support teams (IT, administration, human resources, financial services, communication and marketing, legal department) continue to provide the best service possible to the group's two business units.

In parallel, all of the measures implemented by the French government during this period have been and will be examined by the Group's finance department in order to ensure the group's continuity in the best possible conditions.

The results clearly show that despite the health crisis, all of the company's teams have continued to be fully involved since the beginning of the year 2020, the company's revenues as well as its orders book have not stopped growing, posting increasing numbers each quarter.

NOTE 2 ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, APPRAISAL METHODS, IFRS OPTIONS RETAINED

To prepare the interim financial statements, estimates, judgements, and hypotheses were made by the Group; they may have impacted the amounts presented with respect to portions of assets and liabilities, any liabilities as of the date the interim financial statements were established and the amounts presented with respect to proceeds and charges for the financial year. Decisions deemed significant by Management when applying the Group's accounting methods and the main sources of uncertainty related to estimates are identical to those that affected the last consolidated financial statements ending December 31, 2019.

The fair market value of trade receivables and other receivables is equivalent to the book value, in light of their maturity date of less than one year. The increase in client receivables as of June 30, 2020 is explained by:

  • payment delays granted to clients which are in general longer;
  • many contracts signed in the second semester for which significant prepayments have not yet been recovered;
  • the increase in activity over the 2020 financial year;

The breakdown of client balances in euros and per currency, as of June 30, 2020, is as follows:

Total 78 141 (63)

In May 2011, the Group put in place a liquidity agreement with an authorized promoter at the time of its initial stock market listing with a maximum amount of €250K. This contract allows regulation of the stock market listing.

These mobilized monies are immediately available in the event that the service provider's agreement is terminated. These amounts have a maturity date of 1 year or greater.

In the month of December 2017, an additional contribution of €150K was made, which thereby brought the total amount contributed in the contract of the liquidity agreement to €400K.

On April 30, 2020, in the evening, the contract signed by the Company with the company, AUREL BGC, ended.

The exercise price of these stock warrants shall be determined as a function of the price of one or more rounds of fundraising of at least 15 million euros, conducted within 15 months following the date of the subscription to which shall apply an increasing discount as a function of time, with a minimum of 2 euros starting from the 16th month.

NOTE 10 COMMITMENTS TOWARDS PERSONNEL

a) Defined-benefit pensions

Commitments towards personnel are exclusively comprised of benefits subsequent to employment. In France, the Company contributes to the national pension scheme and its commitments to employees in terms of pension are limited to a lump sum payment based on seniority which is paid when the employee reaches retirement age.

This lump sum retirement benefit is determined for each employee based on his/her seniority and his/her last stated wage. This obligation with respect to the defined benefits scheme is provisioned.

The Company has no hedging asset for defined-benefit schemes.

These amounts recorded in the balance sheet as defined benefit commitments are as follows:

(1) A deferred tax liability was recorded for the provision recognized in the Company's corporate accounts and concerns advances made by the Company to its subsidiaries. The provision for these advances was deducted fiscally in the corporate accounts. These advances amount to €4,463K on June 30, 2020 (€4,446K on December 31, 2019).

(2) Median Technologies, for many years, has invested in research and development activities in the domains of medical imaging, doing so in a very significant manner. The goal is simple: allow the medicine of tomorrow to evolve. With its iBiopsy project, the group intends to continue its substantial outlays in these coming years. Consequently, the group does not see itself as being able to return to equilibrium in the next two years, this being despite the very positive results heretofore yielded by its iCRO activity and services for clinical trials conducted by the major pharmaceutical groups. Given its history of recent losses and the absence of probative items justifying the use of short-term fiscal deficits, the group did not record any additional deferred taxes due to tax losses. The balance of these non-activated tax deficits as of June 30, 2020 comes to €107,806K (€103,156K as of December 31, 2019).

(3) As deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the Company only, the deferred tax assets and liabilities were offset.

Group revenues amounted to €5.93M, a 47.8% increase compared to the first half of 2019, which amounted to €4M. This increase in activity in 2020 is explained primarily by the development of the iCRO activity in China, as in the 2019 financial year. The implementation of the Chinese structure has permitted a significant increase in the booking of orders in the year 2019, which positively impacted the first half of 2020. 2020-06-30 2019-12-31 Variation France Export Total France Export Total

Currently, the Group is referenced amongst most of the major world laboratories and each day intends to expand its presence and increase its activity among the major pharmaceutical groups. The Company does not consider itself to be dependent on one laboratory.

As of June 30, 2020, the Group's order book was €53.6 million, that is €15.3 million above 31 December 2019 and €9.2 million above March 30, 2020. It was €30.7 million as of June 30, 2019, that being an increase of €22.9 million (+74.6%) in one year. This order book was reinforced this semester thanks to particularly large orders received in Europe for phase III studies with major global pharmaceutical laboratories.

The size of the order book makes it possible to be quite confident about revenues to be generated in coming quarters.

Because the iBiopsy® business is in the R&D investment phase for new products and services, it is not generating revenue at this stage.

NOTE 16 PERSONNEL CHARGES

The detail of personnel charges is analysed as follows:

Staff costs Notes 2020-06-30 2019-06-30 Variation
(In thousands of euros)

Employee benefits 10 19 (59) 78
Total 5,650 4,124 1,527
Average employee numbers 117 86 3 1

The increase in payroll is explained by the increase in the Group's workforce. The Group is in a growth phase and has made hires in all Group companies.

The research tax credit corresponds to a subsidy granted by the state as a function of charges incurred in the context of the research and development effort. The charges incurred by the Group in this domain which are eligible for the research tax credit essentially correspond to personnel charges, which explains the allocation of the research tax credit to personnel charges.

Research & Development expenditures eligible for the research tax credit in 2020 came to €2,528K in the first half of 2020, compared to €2,090K in the first half of 2019.

Potentially dilutive instruments are described on page 9. Over the course of the periods presented, equity-linked instruments (founder's warrants, share warrants, Options, Free shares, etc.) are considered to be antidilutive as they lead to a reduction of the loss per share. Hence, the diluted earnings-per-share is identical to the fundamental earnings-per-share.

NOTE 22 OFF-BALANCE SHEET COMMITMENTS AND OTHER POTENTIAL LIABILITIES

a) Software use licenses and patents

As provided by licensing agreements with the University of Chicago, the Company owes this institution the following amounts, which were not yet recognized as of June 30, 2020:

Royalties equal to 1% of revenues that will be realized by the Company from the CAD-Lung software following June 30, 2020. The contract provides that the Company must, in any case, pay the University of Chicago, for this, minimum royalties of \$15,000 for each calendar year (provisioned in the balance sheet June 30, 2020).

\$45,000 once the Company has obtained the administrative authorizations necessary for the marketing of the CAD-Colon software either in the United States, or in Japan, or in Europe, as well as \$30,000 once the cumulative sales of the CAD-Colon software exceed \$1,000,000. It should be noted that the Company, starting in 2009, decided to no longer market the CAD-Colon software.

Royalties equal to 1.5 to 2.0 % of revenues that will be realized by the Company from the CAD-Colon software after June 30, 2020. It should be noted, that the contract provides that the Company must, in any case, pay the University of Chicago, for this, minimum royalties of \$15,000 for each calendar year. It should be noted that the Company, as it has decided to no longer market the CAD-Colon software, and in agreement with the University of Chicago, this commitment will not be applicable so long as the Company has not started to market it again.

b) Loan procured from the European Investment Bank (EIB)

On December 18, 2019, Median Technologies and the European Investment Bank (EIB) signed a financing agreement amounting to €35,000,000, supported by the European Fund for Strategic Investment (EFSI) or the "Juncker Plan") This financing, divided into three tranches, will allow Median Technologies to strengthen and accelerate the investment program for its iBiopsy® imaging phenomics platform over the coming years.

  • tranche A for €15M;
  • tranche B for €10M;
  • tranche C for €10M.

Median requested the payment of the first 15-million euro tranche at the beginning of the month of April 2020.

The agreement then provides for the release of the second and third tranches (each being 10 million euros) in the coming years, at the discretion of Median Technologies, subject to the realization of certain conditions precedent defined in the financing agreement.

Within 15 months following the release of the first tranche

The Group must provide the European Investment Bank proof that one or more capital increases have occurred for the company. Should this condition precedent not be met, several cases might arise:

Capital increases of less than 10 million euros

The European Investment Bank may cancel the portion of tranche A that has not been released and/or demand the early repayment of the outstanding loan as well as interest incurred and all other amounts incurred or outstanding.

Capital increases situated between 10 and 15 million euros

The PIK interest rate applicable to tranche A will be increased to 8% and interest will be owed retroactively as if it had been 8% from the release date and this shall apply up until capital increases reach €15,000,000. (The current rate applied is 6%).

At the end of the project defined in the contract

The financing obtained from the European Investment Bank was allocated within the context of the operation for research and development of the iBiopsy project.

It was agreed that by the end of financial year 2023, all of the financing granted should represent no more than 50% of all costs invested by the company within the framework of this project.

In the event that the financing should exceed 50% of these amounts, the bank could demand the immediate repayment of any excess amounts.

Median Technologies management committee is confident in its ability to achieve the objectives defined in the contract signed with the European Investment Bank within the allotted deadlines.

Issuance of stock warrants

According to the terms of the issuance contract for the stock warrants, Meeting Technologies will proceed to issue 800,000 stock warrants in favour of the EIB at the time of the payment of the first tranche, and, as applicable, will issue 300,000 additional stock warrants when the second tranche is released at a subscription price of 0.01 euro.

The exercise price of these stock warrants shall be determined as a function of the price of one or more rounds of fund-raising of at least 15 million euros, conducted within 15 months following the date of the subscription to which shall apply an increasing discount as a function of time, with a minimum of 2 euros starting from the 16th month. The period of validity for these stock warrants is 15 years.

The contract of issue for the stock warrants includes an exercise parity adjustment clause which could apply, under certain conditions, if capital is raised. The EIB shall also have the right, under certain conditions, to ask Median Technologies to buy back its warrants for a maximum amount of 50 million euros and, beyond that, to find a purchaser and pay interest on the price of the remaining warrants. The total of these stock warrants (for both tranches) could represent up to 7.44% of the fully diluted share capital.

This contract is complex and could lead to the recognition of a debt. On the other hand, the evaluation of the latter requires additional analyses which are in progress for the closing on December 31, 2020. In addition, the group will also clarify certain points of the contract with the EIB.
