CryoSave maintains new client intake but revenues are under pressure

Genoma reports strong intake of sales and confirms global plan will be met despite of a 2 to 3 month delay compared to the forecast

 

Zutphen, The Netherlands - 25 August 2015

Esperite NV (Euronext: ESP, "Esperite" or "the Group") has published its financial results  (unaudited) for the period of six months ended June 30, 2015 showing an increase in total revenue compared to the same period last year. Esperite has built a successful constellation of companies In less than a year and created its own identity. Esperite's vision and strategy have been validated, the Group's focus has shifted now to implementation and growth.

Consolidated revenue increased by 3%. Genoma sales increases every month significantly. During the first 6 months of 2014 no sales were recorded for the Genoma segment. The sales during the first half year mainly consisted of the product Tranquility. The introduction of the product Serenity in May 2015 is well received by the market. The revenue of the stem cell business segment was almost at the same level. 

Consolidated result worsened as a result of the investments made regarding the Genoma activities. Besides the increased marketing expenses also the G&A cost increased because the Genoma back office activities were implemented. 

GENOMA shows strong sales intake and consistently registered strong growth on every month of the reporting period. All parameters are in line and confirm the trend and the forecast established for the year. Genoma is fully confident in the future, and anticipates an even higher demand of its products in 2016. Longer than expected implementation of distribution agreements has resulted in a two to three months lag between the forecast and the results. Genoma has attained its strong market position thanks to the combination of its cutting-edge technology, advance pipeline of exclusive genetic tests and active network of clients, partners and sales force at the local level with a proven track record.

The first two phases of the Group's geographical expansion strategy are well underway. Noteworthy progress in phase one include increased capillarity in Italy, Spain and Serbia where products were successfully launched. The Group is creating Genoma brand awareness and direct contact with doctors and healthcare institutions in the most important medical Congresses in Europe in which Genoma participates prominently. Specific events to present Tranquility to the medical community are very successful and, as a result, new clients and partners are acquired and additional sales realised.

Phase two of the geographical expansion includes France and Germany. The strategy to enter and conquer these two high-potential markets is already under implementation; experienced Business Development Managers hired to cover these areas are operational. Belgium, Switzerland, Austria and Turkey are also part of this expansion. The prospects are bright.

Agreements with large private hospitals and public sector health institutions have been signed recently. These partnerships established with some of the most prestigious and influential health institutions in Europe is starting to generate sales. Genoma has signed an agreement with Vatican's Catholic University of the Sacred Heart to distribute Genoma's genetic tests and establish a Genoma Cloud satellite laboratory in Italy. In addition to this, Genoma products distribution through its local commercial structures in the different countries continues to show traction and growth.

Enhanced offer of upgraded products. Tranquility was upgraded to become the most complete CE-IVD marked DNA NIPT test in the market. Strong sales and consistent growth per month are confirming Tranquility's market position. Tranquility already complies with requirements for metal fraction calculation.

T52s, the genetic test for trisomies 21, 18 and 13 which also provides fetal sex determination, has proven to be a well-targeted product very appealing for the public sector. Public hospitals have already signed exclusivity agreements with Genoma to provide T52s to its patients. In some countries T52s is to become the product of choice, a mass market product.

Serenity is showcased at national-level congresses where oncologists and gynecologists representing both public and private sector and hospitals had the opportunity to try the test. Genoma has signed an agreement with an insurance companies offering Serenity in exclusivity to its clients.

Eventy is a mass product targeting population with and without history of colorectal cancer, the second most common cancer and cancer-related death. Eventy. the colorectal cancer risk screening test, will be available through Esperite's entire network by September's end.

Laboratory expansion. Genoma's state-of-the-art clinical genetic center in Geneva with Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies keeps increasing its throughput capacity to absorb the  ensuing surge in demand.

Acquisition of INKARYO. Esperite owns now the most advanced bioinformatics analytical processing of NGS data for the detection and quantification of chromosomal numerical and structural abnormalities, which is improving and expanding the performance and resolution of the entire present and future Genoma's genetic tests portfolio, including prenatal genetic analyses, identification of causes of genetic disorders and high resolution tumor characterization.

Ekaryotype, InKaryo's proprietary electronic whole-genome karyotype test for liquid biopsy offers higher resolution and accuracy and at a lower cost than CGH, CMA or Microarrays to detect cytogenetic aberrations, giving Genoma the edge over competitors.

CRYOSAVE maintains roughly the number of new clients. Revenues are under pressure due to the price war and aggressive suicidal pricing strategies of various competitors, which will be short-lived. The synergies between CryoSave and Genoma will help to stabilise the results of CryoSave in the near future.

CryoSave's market position as number one in Europe with the most advanced technology is to benefit the most as sales gain momentum. CryoSave's laboratory in Geneva is fully operational and good progress in the consolidation of activities was attained in 2015, further improving organisational excellence.

THE CELL FACTORY is pioneering new technologies to extend the product portfolio for broader applications in regenerative medicinePatents acquired and R&D underway are geared towards producing tangible results in the short term. The goal is to translate these new technologies into effective affordable treatments opening doors to allogenic treatment: cost-effective production of MSC and microvesicles to subsequently sell it to pharmaceutical companies and hospitals for safer, more effective and more affordable treatments of all autoimmune, chronic and acute inflammatory diseases, including related pharmaceutical compositions to target anti-inflammatory drugs to specific tissues.

Frederic Amar, CEO of Esperite group: "Esperite is pioneering the best health technology, validating and upgrading its extended portfolio of exclusive genetic tests, executing its commercial strategy and establishing alliances with the most prestigious health institutions in Europe. These achievements give us even greater confidence in the future of Esperite both in the short and long term".

Financial Review 

(all amounts in thousands of Euro)

 

Revenue

Consolidated revenue increased by 3% from EUR 13,479 to EUR 13,909. 

Genoma sales amounts to EUR 1,454 and increases every month significantly. During the first 6 months of 2014 no sales were recorded for the Genoma segment. The sales during the first half year mainly consisted of the product Tranquility. The introduction of the product Serenity in May 2015 is well received by the market. 

For the stem cell activities the third party sales decreased by 8%. Taking into account the inter segment sales the revenue of the stem cell segment were almost at the same level. 

Result

Consolidated result worsened as a result of the investments made regarding the Genoma activities. Besides the increased marketing expenses also the G&A cost increased because the Genoma back office activities were implemented. 

The result was positively impacted because of the capitalisation of the deferred tax assets regarding uncompensated losses. Until 2014 these losses were not capitalised in relation to the Genoma activities because of insufficient evidence and track record that the activities will be profitable. Now the activities have been launched and confidences of getting profitable the deferred tax assets are recognised.

Financial Position

Total assets increased by 3% up to EUR 48,209. The increase mainly relates to recognition of a deferred tax asset regarding the Genoma activities and an increase in cash.

Solvency decreased from 45.5% as per 30 June 2014 to 40.9% as per 30 June 2015. 

Cash Flow

The operational cash flow increased mainly due to improved working capital management.

The cash flow of investing activities amounts to EUR 1,663 and relates to investing in machinery and capitalisation of development cost related to the Inkaryo technology.

The cash flow from financing activities relates mainly to the investment made by Educe Capital in June 2015.

Outlook

Esperite with Genoma has reached a level of achievement that gives confidence in its robust and powerful organization. Esperite is well positioned for long-term growth. Genoma business will have strong growth and CryoSave business will remain stable.

9.  Intangible assets

Impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets

The Group performed its annual impairment test in October and when circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired. The Group's impairment test for goodwill and intangible assets is based on value-in-use calculations. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different cash generating units were disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014.

The Group considers the relationship between its market capitalisation and its book value, among other factors, when reviewing for indicators of impairment. As at 30 June 2015, the market capitalisation of the Group was above the book value of its equity. 

Sensitivity to changes in assumptions

With regard to the assessment of value-in-use there are no significant changes to the sensitivity information disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014. 

10.  Taxation

Income tax expense reported for the six month period ended 30 June 2015 is recognized based on management's best estimate of the weighted average annual effective income tax rate for the territories for which a tax expense is expected for the full financial year, applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period. The Group's applied consolidated effective tax rate for the six months ended 30 June 2015 was 
9% (1HY 2014: 16%). The effective tax rate for the full year 2014 was 9%. In 2015 a deferred tax asset is formed for the compensable losses of Genoma S.A. of the year 2014. When this deferred tax asset is included the Group's applied consolidated effective tax rate for the six months ended 30 June 2015 including this was 14%.

Estimates and judgment by management are required in determining the Group's deferred tax liabilities, amongst others corporate income tax and value added tax (VAT). The calculation of the tax liabilities is partly based on the interpretations of applicable tax laws in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates. Although the Group believes the tax estimates are reasonable, there is no assurance that the final determination of the tax liabilities will not be materially different from what is reflected in the statement of income and balance sheet. Should additional taxes be assessed these could have a material effect on the Group's results of operation or financial condition.

11.  Earnings per share

for the six months ended 30 June 2015 2014
Basic earnings per share (in euro cents) (29.2) (11.4)
Diluted earnings per share (in euro cents) (29.2) (11.4)

Basic earnings per share (EPS) are calculated by dividing net result attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share is based on the calculation of the basic earnings per share, adjusted to allow for the assumed conversion of all dilutive share options. 

The average market value of ordinary shares during the first half of 2015 did not exceed the exercise price of the options granted in the years 2007-2012, hence these options had no dilutive effect. 

The potential effect of converting the convertible loan to Salveo Biotechnology S.A. is antidilutive, hence the convertible loan had no dilutive effect.

The potential effect of converting the convertible loan to Educe Capital LLC is antidilutive, hence the convertible loan had no dilutive effect.

12. Share options, treasury shares and dividend

Share options

No options were granted in Esperite N.V. to Directors and certain other employees of the Group.

Treasury shares

The Company has no own shares in treasury at 30 June 2015 (31 December 2014: 0).

Dividend

Following the shareholder resolution on 17 June 2015, the Company paid no dividend for the year 2014. 

13. Contingent liabilities or contingent assets

The Group is involved in legal cases and ongoing disputes or potential legal proceedings with some parties in the ordinary course of business. Liabilities and contingencies in connection with these matters are periodically assessed based upon the latest information available, usually with the assistance of lawyers. A liability is accrued only if an adverse outcome is more likely than not and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. If one of these conditions is not met, the proceeding or claim is disclosed as contingent liability, if material. The actual outcome of a proceeding or claim may differ from the estimated liability and consequently may affect the financial performance and position.

In the first half of 2015, there were no material changes to the Groups' commitments and contingent liabilities from those disclosed in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2014.
