Quarterly Statement as of March 31, 2022

Medios AG: Revenue and earnings at record levels in the first quarter

  • Double-digit revenue growth and disproportionately high EBITDA pre1 increase
  • Acquisition of NewCo Pharma Group: Significant strengthening of market position in compounding
  • Outlook 2022 confirmed: Significant and sustainable increase in revenue and earnings expected

Medios AG ("Medios"), the leading provider of Specialty Pharma Solutions in Germany, confirms its forecast for the 2022 financial year following a successful first quarter. In the period from January to March 2022, revenues increased by 24.4% to €393.0 million (previous year €315.9 million) compared to the prior-year period. EBITDA pre1 climbed by 60.7% to €14.1 million (previous year €8.8 million). Thus, revenue and earnings reached new record highs. Both operating segments contributed to both revenue and earnings growth with improved absolute operating margins.

Significant events in the reporting period

Successful completion of the acquisition of the NewCo Pharma Group

NewCo Pharma Group became part of the Medios Group on January 10, 2022. The merger with NewCo Pharma enables Medios to significantly strengthen the Patient-Specific Therapies segment, in particular, and therefore substantially and sustainably increase profit margins across the entire Medios Group.

In addition, Medios is expanding its nationwide presence in Germany with the five regional manufacturers of NewCo Pharma. It is now possible to supply pharmacies all over Germany with patient-specific therapies within a very short time frame via the newly expanded network of compounding facilities. By virtue of the merger with NewCo Pharma, the network of specialist partner pharmacies has also grown to roughly 600. Through the integration of capacity at NewCo Pharma, the production of specially tailored intravenous solutions and other parenterals will almost triple and is expected to expand to well over 300,000 units in the 2022 financial year. Moreover, the acquisition facilitates additional synergies in purchasing and in the field of clinical studies and trial drugs.

The purchase price of approx. €120.5 million was partly settled in the form of 924,233 new Medios shares that were created as part of a capital increase from authorized capital against contributions in kind. The new shares are subject to staggered lock-out periods of up to 24 months. The purchase price was also settled with a cash contribution in the amount of €85.2 million in January 2022, which was largely financed by the capital increase carried out December 3, 2021. The final payment of €2.5 million will be made in the second quarter of 2022.

Start of Coverage by Bryan, Garnier & Co

On February 11, 2022, Bryan, Garnier & Co began covering Medios AG. In addition to Bryan, Garnier & Co, Medios continues to be covered by Berenberg, Deutsche Bank, Jefferies, Kepler Cheuvreux, Metzler Capital Markets, and Warburg.

Progress in the rollout of the innovative trading platform mediosconnect

In the first quarter of 2022, Medios made further progress in the rollout of mediosconnect, its digital trading platform for personalized drugs, which is now available in five German federal states.

Implementation of the sustainability strategy underway

In December 2021, Medios published its first sustainability strategy, with the implementation period scheduled to run until 2025. In the first quarter of the year, the implementation of a software-based platform was started. This software is in particular designed to simplify sustainability management and to facilitate the collection and analysis of ESG data. Progress in terms of the strategy's implementation will be outlined annually in the Nonfinancial Consolidated Statement of Medios AG.

Earnings, financial, and asset situation of the Medios Group

In the first quarter of 2022, the earnings position of the Medios Group improved considerably compared to the prior-year period. In particular, this is due to the inclusion of NewCo Pharma Group in the consolidated financial statements as of January 2022. The NewCo Pharma Group has been fully consolidated since January 1, 2022, which is reflected accordingly in the financial results. The Medios Group generated revenue in the amount of €393.0 million, which equates to a rise of 24.4% (previous year €315.9 million). Of this figure, 8.5 percentage points relate to organic growth, while revenue growth of €50.2 million is attributed to the acquisition of the NewCo Pharma Group.

In the Pharmaceutical Supply segment, external revenue increased by €39.6 million or 13.2% to €339.2 million (previous year €299.6 million). External revenue at the Patient-Specific Therapies segment increased by €37.5 million or 232.3% to €53.6 million (previous year €16.1 million). The revenues were generated almost exclusively in Germany.

Material expenses rose at a lower rate than in the prior-year quarter.

EBITDA pre1 climbed by €5.3m, or 60.7%, to €14.1 million (previous year €8.8 million). The EBITDA pre1 margin came in at 3.6% (previous year 2.8%). EBITDA pre1 for the Pharmaceutical Supply segment grew by 19.5% to €8.4 million (previous year €7.0 million), with the EBITDA pre1 margin standing at 2.5% (previous year 2.3%).

EBITDA pre1 for the Patient-Specific Therapies segment tripled to €6.9 million (previous year €2.2 million) mainly due to the takeover of NewCo Pharma Group. In the reporting period, the segment's share in Group EBITDA pre1 amounted to over 48% while the corresponding revenue share stood at approx. 14%. The EBITDA pre1 margin came in at 12.9%.

The increase in depreciation and amortization from €3.8 million to €5.4 million was mainly due to the acquisition of the NewCo Pharma Group, with the largest increases resulting from depreciation and amortization of the customer base.

Cash flow from operating activities came in at €-2.5 million (previous year €21.4 million). In particular, the decline is due to outflows from payroll tax and social security deductions as a result of stock option programs in the previous year and due to an inventory buildup in the Pharmaceutical Supply segment. The inventory buildup is expected to balance out again over the course of the financial year. In the reporting period, the cash flow from operating activities adjusted for both effects stands at approx. €12 million.

The cash flow from investment activities mainly results from the payment of the cash component of €85.2 million in connection with the acquisition of NewCo Pharma Group. Furthermore, liquid funds of €6.0 million acquired from the NewCo Pharma Group as part of the initial consolidation were recorded here, with an offsetting effect.

Cash flow from financing activities in the amount of €–11.2 million is especially attributed to the scheduled loans repayment taken over from the former shareholders of Cranach Pharma GmbH and NewCo Pharma Group (€–9.8 million).

The balance sheet total stood at €614.4 million as of March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021: €524.1 million). The 17.2% increase is especially the result of the acquisition of NewCo Pharma Group. Equity stood at €432.6 million as of March 31, 2022, which represents an increase of €38.4 million or 9.7% (December 31, 2021: €394.2 million). The equity ratio stood at 70.4% as of March 31, 2022 (December 31, 2021: 75.2%).

Positive outlook for the 2022 financial year confirmed

Currently, the Executive Board assumes that the Ukraine conflict will not have a significant impact on the business of the Medios Group. An initial risk assessment shows that neither procurement nor sales markets of the Medios Group are directly affected by the conflict. This assessment is based on the premise that the conflict will not have a lasting global economic impact, but rather a moderate impact on the Medios Group's procurement and sales markets. In the event of a prolonged conflict with global impact, risks to the Medios Group's business cannot be ruled out.

As a result of these assumptions and the acquisition of the NewCo Pharma Group, completed in January 2022, as well as the substantial expansion of manufacturing capacity, the management anticipates revenue in the amount of approx. €1.45 billion to €1.6 billion and EBITDA pre1 of €52.0 million to €58.0 million for the Medios Group in the 2022 financial year. Compared to the previous year, this represents a rise in revenue of approx. 6.8% to 17.9% and an increase in EBITDA pre1 of approx. 35.3% to 50.9%. Should there be any significant changes in the assumptions made, an adjustment of the forecast given here cannot be ruled out.

1 EBITDA is defined as net earnings for the period before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA pre is adjusted for extraordinary expenses for stock options and M&A activities.
