Regulatory News:

Median Technologies (FR0011049824, ALMDT, PEA/SME eligible, “Median” or “the Company”) reports today its business indicators for the first half of 2024, provide an update on recent iCRO¹ successful business achievements.

Fredrik Brag, CEO and Founder of Median Technologies said: “iCRO experienced double-digit order backlog growth in one year. The strategy initiated in 2023, leveraging our unique AI capabilities, delivered its first results. H1 2024 revenue was slightly below H1 2023 revenue, due mainly to the residual impact from COVID-19 in China. Chinese bookings improved significantly in H1 2024, and we expect to experience revenue growth in China in the coming quarters. In May, we announced that Median has been selected as a preferred vendor of a Top 3 pharma company. Median is now a preferred imaging services provider to 2 of the Top 3 global pharma groups. We are very proud to have been selected against our biggest competitors by this additional leading oncology pharma with a pipeline 30% bigger than our current largest client. This agreement should significantly increase our revenues in the coming years. This is a clear sign of the quality we provide for our clients and the unique differentiator we bring with our AI expertise. Moreover, we are very pleased to announce that we have been awarded our first deals in Japan and South Korea for a total amount of €3.1 million. These new deals outside China considerably increase Median’s reach on the very dynamic East Asia clinical trial market. We expect these achievements to be major catalysts for strong business growth in the upcoming quarters.

We’re very encouraged by the final results of the eyonis™ LCS independent verification study. All the primary endpoint and secondary endpoints were met. Therefore, we have a high degree of confidence in the forthcoming results of the Standalone pivotal study, which will be reported in August.”

iCRO: paving the way for growth acceleration

Leveraging AI expertise to partner with global players in the pharma industry

Median's revised sales strategy, initiated in 2023, underpinned by the Company’s distinctive AI capabilities, targets big pharma groups and strategic partnerships with global CROs². This approach is designed to enhance Median’s iCRO core business, delivering significant added value through its unique AI imaging expertise. The success of the Company’s revised sales strategy is translating into accelerating order backlog³ growth.

Median was awarded its first iCRO projects in Japan and South Korea, extending its reach in the fast-growing East Asian oncology clinical trials market. The project awards consist of two large oncology phase III studies, for a total amount of €3.1 million. These first awards in Asia outside of China are a breakthrough and create excellent momentum for the growth of Median’s iCRO business in this highly dynamic geography.

In May, Median was selected as preferred vendor by a Top 3 pharmaceutical company, adding another one of the largest global pharmaceutical companies to its client portfolio. Median Technologies is now a preferred provider for 2 of the Top 3 pharma companies, based on oncology sales. Median will provide imaging services, primarily for late phase clinical trials in the new client’s oncology pipeline. Median’s recognized expertise in AI applied to medical images has served as a powerful technological differentiator throughout the various negotiation phases; this unique asset sets it apart from the standard offering of the Company’s competitors, as well as a significant catalyst for accelerating growth opportunities for Median.

H1 2024 revenue at €10.9 million, order backlog at an all-time high of €71.7 million

In Q2 2024, the Company's revenue stands at €5.6 million, up by 3.7% from Q1 2024 revenue and 5.7% compared to Q4 2023 revenue. H1 2024 revenues were €10.9 million, versus €11.4 million in H1 2023. The residual impact of COVID-19 in China created temporary revenue headwinds in H1 2024. However, Chinese bookings improved significantly in H1 2024, and the Company expects to experience revenue growth in China in the coming quarters. All the revenue comes from the iCRO business, which provides imaging services to the global bio-pharmaceutical industry.

The order backlog is €71.7 million as of June 30, 2024, up by 5.1% compared to the order backlog on March 31, 2024 (€68.2 million) and up by 11% on June 30, 2023 (€64.6 million). As of June 30, 2024, the order backlog is at its highest level ever reached.

³ The order backlog is the sum of orders received but not yet fulfilled. An increase or decrease in the order backlog corresponds to the order intake of the reporting period, net of invoiced services, completed or cancelled contracts, and currency impact for projects in foreign currency (re-evaluated at the exchange rate on closing date). Orders are booked once the customer confirms, in writing, its retention of the Company’s services for a given project. The contract is usually signed a few months after written confirmation.
