Outlook

  • Pipeline for products and services businesses building well and H2 2023 expected to continue the strong momentum seen in the first half, delivering revenue in-line with market expectations for the full year
  • Headline results from the Company's major clinical studies expected by the year end demonstrating key clinical applications of the Parsortix system for patient care
  • Careful control of costs and deferring some discretionary expenditure expected to deliver cash ahead of forecast at the year end and extend cash runway into Q1 2025 without impacting revenues over the next 24 months

ANGLE Founder and Chief Executive, Andrew Newland, commented:

"Encouraging progress was made on multiple levels during the half-year. This was reflected in the beginnings of the post-FDA anticipated revenue ramp delivering revenues trebled year-on-year. Major efforts have been focused on both the products and services commercialisation channels and on the development of "content" in terms of applications for which customers can use the Parsortix system.

The management team has been broadened to drive commercialisation with the appointment of highly experienced Chief Commercial and Chief Scientific Officers and, following a detailed review, resources have been focused to maximise commercialisation and extend the cash runway into Q1 2025.

In the second half, momentum is expected to accelerate further as major streams of work to demonstrate analysis of Parsortix CTC harvests utilising major third-party molecular systems are completed generating new large scale revenue opportunities."
