** 2020 revenue is not consolidated and concerns solely the parent company, PAT SA as such, this presentation excludes the revenue of its subsidiaries StratiCELL, Temisis, Cellengo, PAT Zerbaz and Couleurs de Plantes.
PAT (Plant Advanced Technologies) reported revenue for fiscal 2020 of €1,256,000, up marginally 7% in relation to 2019, driven notably by increased intra-group subcontracting and stability in asset sales, despite the health crisis.
Its objective is to scale up manufacturing capacity for biomolecules to become a leading player in the cosmetics, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and plant protection markets.
• Clariant is appointed as a new director
Following the decision of the General Meeting of June 30, 2020, Plant Advanced Technologies PAT has reinforced its governance by appointing Clariant to the Board of Directors, represented by Ms. Catherine Breffa.
The objective of this three-year program is to discover the mechanism of action of the proprietary first-in-class compound TEM1657 developed by Temisis for the treatment of psoriasis. The PsoriaCure consortium also includes StratiCELL, PAT's Belgian subsidiary, a key life sciences partner dedicated to understanding skin biology and pioneering discoveries in dermo-cosmetic products, the German company PharmBioTec, specialized in the development of pre-clinical stage drug candidates, and the University of Lorraine IMoPA-CNRS research laboratory, specialized in inflammatory signaling networks.
SFHBB (La Société Financière Hoche Bains-les-Bains) and PAT (Plant Advanced Technologies) finalized the €1.6 million capital increase in Temisis, with a pre-money valuation of €40 million. Following the completion of this transaction, PAT now holds 98.46% of Temisis 's capital and SFHBB, 1.54%. The proceeds of this capital increase will provide Temisis with the resources to complete the preclinical studies to ensure the development of the TEM1657 anti-psoriasis drug candidate.
As a reminder, the financing needs for the phase 1 clinical trial of this molecule are estimated between €8 million and €10 million to be financed through future subscriptions.
2020 was marked by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this unprecedented context, all PAT customers remained loyal and certain projects delayed during this period are expected to be back on track in 2021. On that basis, the Group remains confident about meeting its growth targets.
It also reaffirms its continuing commitment to its roadmap for:
In the nutraceutical market, the subsidiary Cellengo, which is spearheading the development of the fermentation technology-based production platform for rare molecules, will continue to develop its first product and for which, a strategic partnership for its development, marketing and distribution is currently under discussion.
Finally, concerning the work on SARS-CoV-2, tests are currently underway for several active components. PAT (Plant Advanced Technologies) is investigating the research of original antiviral molecules, complementary to the current vaccination strategies.
