A. OVERVIEW

MEDIAN Technologies is a French joint stock company (Société Anonyme) with a Board of Directors, founded in 2002 and domiciled in France. Our Company is located in the Sophia Antipolis Technopole in the Alpes Maritimes region of France, where our head office is based. The site houses the majority of our teams, including all of the R&D activities. Our Company also has several subsidiaries:

  • Median Technologies Inc. in the United States and,
  • Median Medical Technology (Shanghai) Co, Ltd. in China.

The Company has been listed on the Euronext GROWTH market in Paris since 2011. (Mnemonic code: ALMDT - ISIN: FR0011049824). Median has been labelled "Innovative Enterprise" by BPI Financement.

Our mission, our vision

Median Technologies is a Medtech company specialized in the computer-assisted processing of medical imaging using artificial intelligence to diagnose and monitor different cancers and metabolic diseases. We innovate in the field of Software as Medical Device (SaMD), contributing to the development of new patient treatments. Our platforms integrate the latest progress in artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to use digital technology to deliver previously inaccessible information contained in digital medical images.

We specialize in cancer and chronic diseases such as non-alcoholic steato hepatitis (NASH).

By combining science, technology, quality, and operational excellence, we propose a unique approach to the way medical images can contribute to the development of new treatments as well as the implementation of personalized and predictive medicine for better patient outcomes.

Median offers a breakthrough approach to exploiting medical images

Medical images provide a snap-shot of a disease in its true state and at all stages, thus enabling noninvasive monitoring of its evolution. Median exploits the power of medical imaging to speed up clinical innovation and new drug development, while generally improving patient care. We extract data contained in digital medical images by associating the most recent artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies to develop Software as Medical Device, enabling both early diagnosis and monitoring of diseases over time. We also offer our know-how in medical imaging to biopharmaceutical companies and participate in image management for their clinical trials in cancer.

We are present in the US, currently the world's largest healthcare and drug development market, as well Europe, and China, a rapidly expanding region for the clinical development and healthcare markets.

Our Company is structured into two divisions: iBiopsy® and iCRO.

iBiopsy® is an R&D activity that aims to develop new Software as Medical Device for early and non-invasive diagnosis of diseases that can be life-threatening if they are not detected sufficiently early.

The iBiopsy® platform Median is developing integrates the most advanced AI and ML technologies as well as our expertise in data science and medical image processing. iBiopsy® helps extract non-invasive digital biomarkers from images and targets indications with unmet medical needs in terms of diagnosis, prognosis and treatment selection in the context of predictive and personalized medicine.

The three life-threatening diseases primarily targeted by iBiopsy® at present have a huge impact in terms of public health: lung cancer, primary liver cancer, and non-alcoholic steato hepatitis (NASH).

Lung cancer is the main cause of death by cancer across the world, leading to 1.8m deaths in 2020. By 2030, lung cancer is predicted to cause 2.4m deaths throughout the world. The five-year survival rate stands at 18% and early detection is vital given the poor prognosis rate of this cancer - Source: Global Cancer Observatory https://gco.iarc.fr/

Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) accounts for 90% of primary liver cancers. It is the third-largest cause of death by cancer on a global scale. Deaths by primary liver cancer are rising across the world and could reach 1.1m in 2030. The five-year survival rate for liver cancer is 10% - Source: https://www.the-nasheducation-program.com/what-isnash/

Non-alcoholic steato hepatitis (NASH) is the manifestation in the liver of a metabolic disorder leading to chronic inflammation of the liver and fibrosis. A patient developing NASH is considered as having a high risk of developing liver cancer. The World Health Organization (WHO) currently views NASH as a pandemic affecting between 1.5% and 6.45% of the global population. If NASH is detected in the early stages, it can be reversed.

With iBiopsy®, we aim to change the landscape in imaging-based diagnosis of these three chronic diseases by launching innovative Software as Medical Device with unrivalled diagnosis precision.

In 2021 and early 2022, Median made particular progress in its clinical development plan for lung cancer with the announcement of three sets of scientific results that helped validate the scientific and technological approach implemented. These results highlighted the excellent sensitivity and specificity performances of the algorithms developed by Median to detect and characterize cancerous pulmonary nodules. This innovation opens new doors for early diagnosis of lung cancer, and new prospects for rolling out lung cancer screening programs, and above all provides fresh hope for millions of patients.

iCRO provides management and analysis services for medical imaging in clinical trials for cancer. Our clients are pharma labs and biotech companies positioned in this therapeutic area, which is currently the biggest in terms of both the number of clinical trials undertaken throughout the world, and R&D

investments by the biopharma industry. iCRO is a commercial activity that generates all of the Company's revenue. The iCRO activity is structured around services to manage medical images in clinical trials and the iSee® platform, which is used to analyze medical images generated in clinical trials.

Median assists biopharmaceutical companies in their clinical trials for which imaging is a key component. We have global coverage in providing imaging services to our clients. We also work in partnership with large contract research organizations (CRO), which use our imaging services and solutions to round out their traditional expertise in terms of clinical trials. We provide services for phase I to phase III oncology trials. At December 31, 2021, Median Technologies was managing the imaging component for 156 trials, most of which in the decisive phase III period leading to marketing approval for new drug molecules.

Our imaging services offer is structured around our proprietary imaging platform iSee®, which provides an expert reading of images for our clients, by automating and standardizing detection of solid cancer tumors, selecting and measuring them and enabling monitoring over time of the patient's response to treatment, which is the key efficacy indicator for new molecules.

iSee® extracts standard and advanced biomarkers by using various imaging criteria from RECIST 1.1 up to more specific criteria such as lesion volume, mRECIST or iRECIST. iSee® enables image analysis for followup of all solid tumor cancers.

Impactful clinical and technological partnerships

Since the Company's creation, we have built trusted partnerships with leading medical centers throughout the world and strategic collaborations with technological industries that are leaders in their fields worldwide.

Behind our technology, our teams

As individuals and as a team, we are guided by four corporate values that we consider essential: giving meaning to innovation in healthcare, making patients the focus of our purpose, helping our clients to reach their goals, and promoting quality as an overriding factor for both our expertise and soft skills. These values define who we are, what we do, the way that we do it, and what we aspire to be.

We strive to apply these values in our relations between co-workers within the Company, as well as in our relations with clients and partners. They are also central to implementing the products we work on.

We are changing the way medical images are used in clinical trials and in patient care, we extract the most advanced, imaging biomarkers noninvasively, so that they become the standard for developing new therapies, for the diagnosis of patient diseases and for patient care. In our day-today work, there is no greater satisfaction than making a difference that will assist in saving or improving the lives of millions of patients.

SUMMARY

A. ORDINARY ACTIVITIES IN THE FIRST HALF OF 2022 - 11 -
B. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IFRS STANDARDS) - 13 -
C. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS THAT HAVE OCCURRED SINCE JUNE 30, 2022 - 13 -

A. ORDINARY ACTIVITIES IN THE FIRST HALF OF 2022

a) The iCRO activity

For the first half of 2022, Median Technologies' revenue amounted to €12.7m, up 25% compared to the first half of 2021, which was €10.1m. This performance corresponds to record growth in the half-year revenues generated by the company. Revenue is 100% derived from the activities of the iCRO Business Unit, which provides solutions and services for image management in oncology clinical trials. The iBiopsy® activity is in the R&D investment phase and is not generating revenue at this stage.

The order backlog totaled €60m on June 30, 2022, up 14.3% relative to June 30, 2021 (€52.5M). Median Technologies has overcome operational challenges caused by the lockdown in Shanghai region, especially with regards to handling tenders, which translated in a limited and temporary decrease of €2.2m of the order backlog versus March 30th, 2022. The growth of our business in China remains solid. The level of the order backlog allows us to be totally confident about future revenues.

b) The iBiopsy® activity

In March 2022, the company announced outstanding performances for the combined malignant/benign detection and characterization capabilities of its iBiopsy® LCS CADe/CADx[2] software as medical device based on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning technologies (press release of March 22). The excellent performance of iBiopsy® LCS CADe/CADx in terms of sensitivity and specificity could open new perspectives for the early diagnosis of lung cancer and the implementation of massive screening programs for this cancer, which is currently the most deadly in the world. Moreover, these results come at a time when the pharmaceutical industry is heavily investing to position new drug candidates on early stages of the disease.

Simultaneously, Median Technologies has initiated discussions with the FDA in preparation for the launch of the iBiopsy® LCS CADe/CADx pivotal study at the end of 2022: following the FDA's response to its 513(g) filing, Median will proceed with a 510k submission to file for marketing approval with the FDA for its iBiopsy® LCS CADe/CADx software as medical device. Median Technologies also initiated a Q-submission process on May 2, with the aim of obtaining the FDA's opinion on several elements including the pivotal trial protocols and potential predicates. This process will continue through the third quarter of 2022.

The significant advancements of the second quarter, allow Median to confirm its objective of obtaining marketing authorization on the US market in Q4 2023 for its Software as Medical Device iBiopsy® LCS CADe/CADx.

c) New synergies between the iCRO and iBiopsy® activities

During ASCO annual conference, Median Technologies announced the creation of Imaging Lab, a new and highly differentiated iCRO entity focused on leveraging AI, data mining and radiomics technologies to exploit imaging data for oncology clinical trials. This creation expands the portfolio of services provided by the company to the biopharmaceutical industry and materializes the convergence between the iCRO division activities and those of iBiopsy®.

d) Cash position

On June 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents amounted to €28.2m. The temporary closure of official administrative services in Shanghai delayed the invoicing process and the collection of customer receivables. The group estimates current delayed payments at €2.5m. Since the end of the Shanghai lockdown, relations between Median Technologies and official administrative services are gradually recovering their normal course and the company expects the payment delays to be caught up during end 2022.

Given the level of cash available as of June 30, 2022, the company considers that it has sufficient cash to meet the cash needs related to its activity and its investments during the 12 months following the closing date.

e) The COVID-19 health crisis

All the measures put in place by the various governments where the companies of the group are located are and will be studied in order to ensure the continuity of services in the best possible conditions. The results showed that despite the health crisis, all of the company's teams have remained fully involved since the start of the year, with the company's turnover and its order book continuing to grow, and posting rising numbers. As indicated in the previous point, the crisis in China that occurred in the first half of 2022 delayed the process of invoicing and collection of receivables. A return to normal is envisaged by the end of the year 2022:

  • 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 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.

B. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IFRS STANDARDS)

Despite no legal obligation requires it, in accordance with our commitments made according to the terms of the "Subscription Agreements" entered into by the Company on August 19, 2014 and July 2, 2015, Median Technologies has prepared consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS standards. It is on the basis of these consolidated financial statements that the half-yearly financial report is presented.

F. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH IFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

OVERVIEW OF MAJOR EVENTS

The major events of the period are presented on pages 11 and 12 of this report.

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, VALUATION METHODS, IFRS OPTIONS USED

a) Principles used in preparing the financial statements

The Group's consolidated financial statements for the six-month period ending June 30, 2022 have been prepared voluntarily in accordance with international accounting standards (IAS/IFRS) applicable on that date as adopted by the EU for all of the periods submitted.

These interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU. They do not include all of the information necessary for a complete set of financial statements pursuant to IFRS. However, they do include a selection of Notes that explain significant events and operations in order to understand the changes that have occurred in the Group's performance and financial condition since the last annual consolidated financial statements for the financial year ending December 31, 2021. The Group has selected the Euro as its presentation currency. Unless stated otherwise, the summarized interim financial statements are presented in thousands of euros, all values being rounded to the nearest thousand. The Group's activity is inherently not seasonal.

These summarized consolidated financial statements were prepared under the responsibility of the Board of Directors on October 18, 2022.

Main standards, amendments and interpretations of mandatory application at January 1, 2022

  • Amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets Onerous contracts, notion of costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts Amendments effective from January 1, 2022;
  • Amendment to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment Proceeds before Intended Use;
  • Annual Improvements 2018-2020 various provisions;
  • Amendment to IFRS 3 Reference to the Conceptual Framework;
  • IFRIC Interpretation accounting for configuration and customization costs in a Software as a Service (SaaS) arrangement (IAS 38 – Intangible Assets).

The adoption of new standards, amendments and mandatory interpretations as listed above did not have any impact on the Group's financial statements.

Main standards, amendments and interpretations published by the IASB applicable in advance at January 1, 2022 in the EU (pending approval)

The Group did not early apply these to the consolidated financial statements of June 30, 2022.

  • Amendment to IAS 1 regarding the Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current and Information on Accounting Policies;
  • Amendment to IFRS 17 "Standard for Insurance Contracts" including the amendments issued in June 2020;
  • Amendment to IAS 8 "Definition of Accounting Estimates";
  • Annual IFRS Improvements 2018-2020.

Main standards, amendments and interpretations published by the IASB not yet applicable at January 1, 2022 in the EU

In 2022, the main standards published but not yet required to be applied and not yet approved by the EU are as follows:

  • Amendment to IAS 1 regarding the Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (application deferred by one year, i.e., at January 1, 2024);
  • Amendment to IFRS 17 "First-time application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 Comparative Information";
  • Amendment to IAS 12 "Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction".

The Group is currently reviewing these new standards where applicable.

b) Use of judgments and estimates

To prepare the interim financial statements, the Group has made estimates, judgments and assumptions. They could affect the amounts presented for asset and liability items, contingent liabilities on the date the financial statements were prepared and the amounts presented for income and expense. Significant judgments made by Management when applying the Group's methods and the main sources of uncertainty related to estimates are identical to those which affected the last consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

c) Consolidation scope and methods

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and the subsidiaries over which the Company directly exercises control. The Group controls a subsidiary when it is exposed to or has a right to variable earnings due to its links with the entity and it has the capacity to influence its earnings due to the power that it holds over it. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements starting on the date on which the control is obtained until the date on which such control ends. During the first half of 2022, Median Technologies Hong Kong Ltd. was liquidated.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

a) Defined benefit pension plans

Staff commitments are composed exclusively of any benefits subsequent to employment. In France, the Company contributes to the national pension plan and its commitments with employees in terms of pension are limited to a one-time benefit based on seniority paid when the employee reaches retirement age. This employee benefit is determined for each employee according to their seniority and last expected salary. A provision was recognized for this obligation concerning the defined benefit plan. The Company does not have any asset covering defined benefit plans.

Changes in these commitments may be analyzed as follows:

As recommended by the IAS 19 standard, turnover rates were recalculated at the end of the 2021 financial year and restated at June 30, 2022 as follows:

Turnover rates 2022-06-30 2021-12-31
Less than 25 years 13.00% 13.00%
Between 25 and 29 years 13.00% 13.00%

Between 50 and 54 years 0.00% 0.00%
55 years and more 0.00% 0.00%

Assumptions related to future mortality rates are determined on the basis of statistical data published in France.

A sensitivity analysis was carried out for this plan and the key assumption of the discount rate. A change in the rate applied to the financial year in consideration for this plan would have the following impact on the Group's gross commitment under the defined benefit pension plan:

No benefit payments are scheduled for 2022. No payments were made for staff commitments in the 2021 financial year.

b) Defined contribution retirement plans

In the United States, the MEDIAN Technologies Inc. subsidiary contributes to a defined contribution plan that limits its commitment to the contributions paid. The amount of expenses reported for first-half 2022 is immaterial.

In China, the MEDIAN MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY subsidiary also contributes to a defined contribution plan that limits its commitment to the contributions paid. The amount of expenses reported for first-half 2022 is immaterial.

FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

At June 30, 2022, financial liabilities broke down as follows:

Non-current financial liabilities 16,573 16,144 429
Current financial liabilities 352 375 (23)
Total 16,925 16,519 406

On December 18, 2019, the Group signed a financing agreement with the European Investment Bank (EIB) amounting to €35m, divided into three tranches:

  • tranche A for €15m released on April 17, 2020;
  • tranche B for €10m;
  • tranche C for €10m.

The main characteristics of this loan are as follows:

  • The loan is granted in euros and for a term of five years until April 17, 2025.
  • The amount loaned has a 6% fixed interest rate.
  • Interest is calculated annually and is compounded each year on the amount of capital remaining owed.
  • The loan is repayable at maturity.
  • In return for the loan granted and the payment of the first tranche of €15m, 800,000 BSA-EIB-A warrants were issued. The fair value loan amount on the drawdown date of the first tranche totaled €1,040k and was deducted from non-current financial liabilities. This contract is the subject of a specific Note (Note 14).

The effective interest rate (EIR) of 7.89% takes into account issue costs of €229k as well as the fair value, on the subscription date, of A warrants totaling €1,040k. The financial expense booked over the period and calculated on the basis of this EIR amounts to €599k.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Following the release of the first tranche of the EIB loan, on April 1, 2020, the Group issued A Warrants for the EIB, the main characteristics of which are as follows:

  • 800,000 A warrants.
  • These warrants can be exercised for a 15-year period from the date of issue (i.e., from the release date of tranches A and B to which they are backed).
  • The subscription price is €0.01 per warrant.
  • Each warrant entitles holders to subscribe to one ordinary share (possible adjustment of this ratio).

The Group conducted an analysis, which found that A warrants are derivative instruments of treasury shares which do not meet the definition of equity instruments since they can be unwound either by the delivery of a variable number of shares or by a variable amount of cash.

As such, they do not pass the requirements of the "fixed-for-fixed" rule and are qualified as derivative liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9. For the first time, the derivative is recognized under liabilities in the Group's consolidated statement of financial position, at its fair value on the drawdown date, deducted from the corresponding loan. As a result, given that only tranche A has been drawn down for a total of €15m, only A warrants were recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Since the warrants represent the sale of an option (call option on treasury stock) not eligible as hedging instruments under IFRS 9, the change in fair value is booked in the income statement. Following fundraising in March 2021, the strike price of the warrants could be determined. This stands at €8.34 for the 800,000 A warrants.

Considering that the strike price of the warrants is fixed and that Median Technologies does not pay dividends to shareholders, the fair value of warrants was estimated using the Black & Scholes formula, based on the following main assumptions:

  • A zero dividend rate.
  • A risk-free rate based on the euro zone short-term rate ("ESTER").
  • The maturity date of A warrants on April 17, 2035.
  • Prospective volatility in the Median Technologies share price of 64% based on observations of historical volatility by the Company.
  • Median Technologies' share price on the date of valuation.

BSA-BEI-A (1) 7,722 10,505 (2,783)
Total 7,722 10,505 (2,783)

(1) Valuation on April 17, 2020: € 1,040 K - Recognition as a reduction of the Loan.

Based on the above method, the initial fair value of €1,040k, booked as a deduction from tranche A of the loan, was revalued:

  • at end-2021 to stand at €10,505k;
  • at end-June 30, 2022, to stand at €7,722k.

The change in fair value over first-half 2022, €2,783k, was recognized in the income statement under the cost of financial debt.

DEFERRED TAXES

Net deferred tax liabilities are analyzed as follows:

. Usage right of the assets 3 4 (1)
. Other adjustments - - -
Total (3) (287) (241) (47)

(1) A deferred tax liability was recognized in provisions booked in the parent company financial statements concerning advances granted by the Company to its subsidiaries. The provision for these advances was deducted fiscally in the parent company financial statements. These advances total €4,489k at June 30, 2022 (€4,478k at December 31, 2021).

(2) A deferred tax asset for the losses carried forward of €685k (€683k at December 31, 2021) was recognized under deferred tax liabilities, taking into account, however, French tax legislation, which caps the charging of losses carried forward to 50% of taxable income for the financial year, with this limit applicable to the fraction of profits exceeding €1m.

Median Technologies has invested substantial amounts in Research & Development (R&D) activities for medical imaging over many years. The Company has a clear purpose: to scale up the healthcare of tomorrow. With its iBiopsy® project, the Group intends to continue spending significantly over the next few years. As a result, the Group does not currently expect to be able to break even in the next two years, despite the extremely positive results now achieved by its iCRO activities, and the services provided during clinical trials performed by large pharmaceutical groups. Given its history of recent losses and in the absence of convincing evidence justifying the use of short-term tax deficits, the Group has not recognized any additional deferred tax for tax losses. The balance of these non-activated tax deficits at December 31, 2021 amounted to €127,280k.

(3) Since deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized solely at the Company level, deferred tax assets and liabilities were offset.

All trade payables payable and other debts have a due date of less than one year. Social liabilities concern salaries, social security charges and provisions for paid time off (PTO).

LIABILITIES ON CONTRACTS

As of June 30, 2022, liabilities on contracts broke down as follows:

Payment advances received by customer 8,564 8,825 (261)
Deferred Income 1 1 (0)
Total 8,564 8,826 (262)

Contract liabilities correspond mainly to advances received from clients at the start of the contract for the "Clinical trials" activity.

These advances are charged to client invoicing according to different methods:

  • At the same rate as the progress of the services performed and recognized in revenue.
  • At the end of the contract, on the last invoices.
  • They can be reimbursed if the clinical trial is stopped.

Group revenue for first-half 2022 totaled €12,725k, compared to €10,139k in the prior financial year, representing an increase of 26%.

This increase in activity over first-half 2022 stemmed from:

  • The continued growth of iCRO activities in China, the United States and Europe, with new contracts signed with influential pharma companies.
  • A strengthened salesforce since the start of the year worldwide should drive continued growth in the months ahead.

To date, the iBiopsy® business has not generated revenue.

The Group is referenced at the major global pharma laboratories and constantly aims to expand its reach and increase its revenue. The Company does not consider itself to be dependent on one laboratory.

EXTERNAL EXPENSES

External expenses amounted to €9,362k at June 30, 2022 compared with €6,429k a year earlier. The €2,933k difference in expenses essentially reflects:

External costs

Total 9,362 6,429 2,933
  • The €776k increase in outsourcing costs is mainly owing to rising expenses in pharmaceutical projects, driven by the ramp-up in Group activity at the iCRO business unit.
  • The increase in external services for €993k, as part of studies and research conducted to develop new software and to review potential new products and their market positioning.
  • The rise in fees for a total of €327k, mainly due to the uptick in recruitment payments and IT services.
  • Higher travel and assignment expenses totaling €215k, attributable to improved travel circumstances as the COVID-19 pandemic abates, coupled with the increased number of staff.
  • The increase in all other operating expenses, linked to the considerable increase in the Group's size.

STAFF COSTS

Staff costs break down as follows:

Staff Costs
(In thousands of euros)
Notes 2022-06-30 2021-06-30 Variation

Employee benefits 11 83 52 31
Total 13,707 7,721 5,986
Average employee numbers 191 155 36

Payroll expenses as well as headcount increased sharply during the financial year (24% for salaries) due to:

  • Accelerated research phases for the Group's various initiatives, notably iBiopsy®.
  • Support for teams resulting from increased revenue.
  • Reinforcements in sales and marketing teams in an effort to win market share.

Share-based payments mainly concern free shares allocated in October 2021 to the Company's employees and managers.

The research and innovation tax credits correspond to a subsidy granted by the French government, based on expenses incurred in connection with Research & Development (R&D) and innovation spending. In this regard, the expenses incurred by the Group that are eligible for research tax credits mainly correspond to staff costs, which explains why this tax credit is charged to staff costs. The share relative to other spending was charged to the relevant items (external expenses, depreciation and amortization).

R&D spending eligible for the research and innovation tax credits totaled €2,890k in first-half 2022, compared with €2,621k a year earlier.

SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

The share-based payment agreements for the Group and still underway at June 30, 2022 are as follows:

  • 2019 and 2020 stock option plans;
  • 2021 free share plans;
  • Share warrants, including EIB warrants (Notes 14 and 22).

All of these agreements are regulated by Group equity instruments. The expense for the financial year mainly corresponds to the free share plan expense as described below.

a) Stock option plans

The Extraordinary General Meeting dated June 26, 2019, authorized the Board of Directors to issue, on one or more occasions, in the proportions and at the times that it deems fit, a maximum number of 500,000 securities providing access to the capital possessing the characteristics of share warrants (hereinafter the "SO 2019").

The Board of Directors' meetings of June 27, 2019, January 16, 2020, July 9, 2020, and October 16, 2020, respectively awarded 385,016, 90,000, 50,000 and 15,000 stock options, the characteristics of which are as follows:

SO 2020-D 2020-10-16 Senior management 15,000 4 years of service 7 years
Total 155,000

The expense recognized at June 30, 2022 in respect of these stock option plans amounted to €40k.

The primary assumptions used to determine the expense resulting from share-based payments by application of the Black-Scholes valuation model of fair value for these options were as follows:

SO 2019 A SO 2019 B SO 2019 C SO 2020 M SO 2020 Z SO 2020 S SO 2020 D

Prospective volatility was estimated by considering the historic share price volatility of a panel of comparable listed companies, particularly over the historical period compatible with the expected term.

b) Free share plans

Pursuant to resolution no. 22, the Extraordinary General Meeting of June 1, 2021 authorized the Board of Directors, for a period of 38 months and on one or more occasions, to allocate free shares. Using this authorization, the Board of Directors' meeting of October 21, 2021 established the following terms:

Failure to achieve targets will result in obsolete free share allocations.

Information on fair value

Fair values were determined at the respective allocation dates of the plans using the Monte Carlo options pricing model and leveraging data and assumptions valid at those dates. For this reason, the fair values presented in the table below for the AGA 2021-2-b and AGA 2021-2-c plans (including fair value) are not identical to the share price on the allocation date. These fair values take into account the probability of achieving the performance criteria associated with these two plans. Nonmarket service and performance conditions stipulated in the agreements have not been taken into account in the measurement of fair value. Prospective volatility was estimated by considering the Company's historic share price volatility, particularly over the historical period compatible with the expected term. The expected term of the instruments was estimated on the basis of the experience and general behavior of the option holders.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The number of shares used to calculate earnings per share is equal to the average weighted number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, from which treasury shares are deducted.

Net result per share
(In thousands of euros) 2022-06-30 2021-06-30 Variation

Total shares 15,462,030 14,724,676 737,354
Earnings per share (in euros) (0.57) (0.65) 0.07
Number of potential shares 17,547,046 16,970,617 576,429

Note that net earnings per share indicated in the consolidated income statement (0.57) corresponds to the consolidated net profit (loss) over the number of shares making up the Company's share capital as of June 30, 2022. Potentially dilutive instruments are described in Note 10. During the periods reported, instruments providing right to the capital on a deferred basis (founders share warrants, equity warrants, free shares, etc.) are considered as anti-diluting as they lead to a reduction in the loss per share. Therefore, diluted earnings per share is identical to basic earnings per share.

OFF-FINANCIAL POSITION STATEMENT COMMITMENTS AND OTHER CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Loan Agreement Signed with the European Investment Bank (EIB)

On December 18, 2019, Median Technologies and the European Investment Bank (EIB) signed a financing agreement amounting to €35m, supported by the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), also known as the "Juncker Plan".

This financing, divided into three tranches, will enable 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 Technologies received payment for the first tranche on April 17, 2020.

Further out, the agreement provides for the release of the second and third tranches (€10m each) in the years ahead, at the discretion of Median Technologies, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions precedent as defined in the financing agreement. One of the essential conditions was to provide the European Investment Bank with evidence that one or more capital increases had been issued in the Company's favor for an amount exceeding €10m. On March 25, 2021, Median Technologies issued a capital increase for a gross amount of €28.1m.

Completion of the project defined in the contract

The financing secured from the European Investment Bank was allocated under the framework of the Research & Development (R&D) operation for the iBiopsy® project. By the end of the 2023 financial year, it is agreed that 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 request the immediate repayment of any excess amounts. Median Technologies' Management Committee is confident in its ability to achieve the set targets in the contract signed with the European Investment Bank within the allotted deadlines.

Issuance of equity warrants

Under the terms of the equity warrant issuance contract, Median Technologies issued 800,000 equity warrants to the EIB when the first tranche was paid, and, as applicable, will issue 300,000 additional equity warrants when the second tranche is released at a subscription price of €0.01. The strike price of these warrants was determined as a result of the capital increase issued in March. The strike price is €8.34.

The equity warrant issuance contract 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 request that Median Technologies buys back its equity warrants for a maximum amount of €50m and, further out, to find a purchaser and pay interest on the price of the remaining equity warrants.
