The Diagnostics Division has continued to grow revenues, with the sale of Coris products through the Launch Diagnostics ('Launch') distribution channels and the expansion of Launch into the German market. The Company streamlined its operations during the period by closing its Wetherby facility, having transferred product development activities to the Coris operations in Belgium. Revenues have grown to £11.2 million in the six-month period ended 30 June 2024, from £9.9 million in the same period to 30 June 2023. This has led to an improvement in adjusted EBITDA to £0.1 million in the six-month period ended 30 June 2024, from an EBITDA loss of £0.4 million in the comparative period in 2023. The Company expects the Diagnostics Division to remain adjusted EBITDA positive in H2 2024 and be cash flow positive in 2025.
Decent growth and if Avacta gets £20m yes it's an ugly loss but should mean audit sign off and able to attract specialist investors. I suspect if they sell and confirm audit will be signed off, P1b has started and recrtuitment is going well and read out still H2 the share price will recover and the conversions will be much less of a drag.
