CS MEDICA (”CS MEDICA” or the ”Company”) hereby publishes its half-year report for the period October 2021 – March 2022. The report is available as an attached document to this press release and on the Company's website (www.cs-medica.com). Below is a summary of the report.

Performance highlights second quarter (January 2022 – March 2022)

The circumstances following COVID19, and the current War in Ukraine have had and still has a great impact on our sales revenue, especially in the European Countries. Both incidents have negatively affected not only sales but also reduced the speed and ability to create results in research and development, delaying both clinical trials and our manufacturing processes. Despite this we have now finalised a substantial Distributor agreement, covering a great part of our revenue goal for the upcoming years. Looking to the future we have high expectations for our ongoing negotiations with several global potential distributors which are expected to be activated within the coming months.

• In line with our previous expectations, our second quarter revenue, tDKK 94, is lower than the corresponding quarter in 2020/2021, tDKK 149. Our year-to-date revenue was in 2020/2021 generated through in-sale to the shelf of Matas 186 medicare shops.
• Operating profit in the first quarter, consequently decreased to tDKK -4.857 compared to 2020/2021 (tDKK -351)
• As of March 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents in the Company amounted to 1.848 tDKK (-306 DKK).
• At the end of the period, CS MEDICA’s equity/asset ratio was 81% (-8%).
• Our prospective sales pipeline is currently amounting to DKK 204,5 million, but due to extended negotiations, the majority of the sales pipeline will be realised in the following financial year.
