Micro-X Chief Executive Officer, Kingsley Hall, commented:
“This funding enables us to accelerate our commercial activities in medical imaging, where we have seen growing commercial momentum following our recent $3.3M order of Rovers and our Supply Agreement with a major U.S. hospital group. We will also invest in capital equipment to scale up our manufacture of tubes and generators to support our plans for growing Rover sales, the launch of the Billion Prima baggage and parcel scanner, and productisation of our Head CT. To prepare for launch of the Head CT subject to regulatory clearances, we will also invest in productising the unit for commercial sale and manufacturing at scale.
Our renewed strategic focus on medical imaging is progressing well, and these investments will strengthen our ability to deliver our world class products to a wider range of customers at increased scale.
We are also delighted to build on our security partnership with Billion Prima, with their increased investment in Micro-X a strong show of support for our collaboration and their value of our technology. I would also like to thank our existing shareholders for their continued support and welcome our new investors to the register.”
Capital Raising to fund medical imaging commercial activities & manufacturing scale up
The renewed strategic focus on medical imaging since early 2025, has resulted in growing momentum for Micro-X with all three key strategies advancing well – growth in Rover sales through larger opportunities, commencing Head CT imaging trials to support regulatory submission, and monetising the security assets to provide additional funding. The funds raised from this Placement will support acceleration of these strategies, primarily through additional commercial activities and manufacturing scale up.
For the Rover mobile X-ray unit, already sold in 38 countries, there is a growing sales pipeline across multiple markets. To build on this, there will be targeted investment in key commercial resources to support the activities to generate larger sales in the near term, as well as long term sustainable growth.
The manufacturing of proprietary Micro-X X-ray tubes and high-powered generators will also be scaled up. This will ensure tubes and generators will be available for expected Rover orders as well as the Billion Prima baggage and parcel scanner due for launch in 2026. Work will also now commence to productise the Head CT, ahead of the commercial launch following regulatory submission and then clearance.
