Key figures

*) Unaudited Group-level figures calculated for the IPO-related offering circular.
**) The company’s potential dilutive instruments consist of EMP shares and stock options. As the company’s business has been unprofitable EMP shares and stock options would have an anti-dilutive effect and therefore they are not taken into account in calculating the dilutive loss per share. Thus, there is no difference between the undiluted and diluted earnings per share.
***) IPO-related costs have been taken into account in the profit (loss) used in the earnings per share calculation.

CEO Teemu Suna: World-class achievements

We founded Nightingale to create a more intelligent and proactive way to take care of health. Our mission is to bring advanced medical tools within everyone’s reach to enable longer healthy lives. Since founding the company, our objective has been to create world-leading preventative health tools. The journey towards our goals requires the ability to make rapid progress and to achieve world-class results.

Our blood analysis technology has been proven to be top of its class internationally. The viability of the technology has been validated extensively by more than 300 peer-reviewed studies, and it has passed the stringent EU-wide regulatory requirements for medical devices.

During the financial period that ended in June 2021, we successfully leveraged the excellent international position of our technology and received considerable support for our growth through the listing on Nasdaq Helsinki’s First North Growth Market Finland. In practice, this has enabled rapid progress in several markets.

In Finland, the largest health care service provider Terveystalo decided to start using Nightingale’s blood analysis technology. Terveystalo will launch a new service utilizing Nightingale’s technology to all its customers in autumn 2021. The aim is to provide customers with new kind of health information through a wellness service that is not available elsewhere. The collaboration is a significant step forward that demonstrates the suitability of Nightingale’s technology in large-scale use in health care services.

In Estonia, the use of Nightingale’s technology is moving forward towards nationwide scale. A strategic partnership with the Estonian Biobank includes an agreement on the analysis of 200,000 Estonian samples. The Estonian Biobank samples broadly represent the distribution of Estonia’s population and thus create excellent circumstances for expanding the use of Nightingale’s technology to the national level. We expect the partnership in Estonia to be a considerable breakthrough in our mission to make Nightingale’s technology a tool for promoting the health and well-being of entire populations.

In the United Kingdom, Nightingale’s collaboration with UK Biobank, the world’s most famous and extensive health data bank, has produced novel medical breakthroughs during the financial period. The new discoveries include, among others, a connection between blood biomarkers measured by Nightingale and severe form of the COVID-19 disease. Nightingale has agreed upon the analysis of all 500,000 UK Biobank samples, and the benefits of the strategic partnership are expected to significantly accelerate both top medical research globally and the use of Nightingale’s technology in preventive health and well-being applications.

We commenced operations in Nightingale’s laboratory in Japan. Achieving clinical laboratory certification enabled us to launch commercial services in Japan. We signed an agreement on the sale of health and well-being services with Welltus, a subsidiary of the Japanese conglomerate Mitsui & Co., Ltd. Japan has very stringent quality requirements for health services, which makes the successes we achieved during the financial period a considerable step forward as we expand our commercial operations to new, significant markets.

In the United States, Nightingale deepened its strategic partnership with Weavr Health, one of the leading global manufacturers of at-home blood collection devices. The partnership ensures the international scalability and availability of Nightingale’s at-home test. The agreement is especially noteworthy, as we believe that preventive health care services should extend to people’s everyday lives and that the best possible health information should be accessible at home. During the financial period, we started an extensive at-home testing pilot, and the aim is to launch a commercial service based on the at-home testing solution during the financial period that began in July 2021.

I am extremely proud of and want to thank the Nightingale team, who have successfully adapted to operating as a publicly listed company and achieved major objectives during the financial period. This creates an excellent basis for us to continue building Nightingale towards international success, and I am very excited about what we can achieve during the current financial year 2021–2022.

Finally, I would like to thank all our partners, shareholders and customers for their cooperation and sharing our important mission. We have set very high goals for ourselves, and achieving them will require a lot of work, but I am very confident about our future – the technology that we have developed will provide us with a true opportunity to build a healthier world.

•  Reaching an order book of EUR 5 million by the end of the financial year

The Board of Directors’ proposal on the management of the result of the financial period

The parent company’s distributable non-restricted equity on 30 June 2021 was EUR 122,586,544. The parent company’s net loss for the financial period totalled EUR -10,755,180.

In the coming years, Nightingale will focus on funding its growth and developing its business. The company is committed to a very strict dividend policy that is connected to Nightingale’s result and financial standing. The company does not expect to distribute a dividend in the short or medium term.

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend will be distributed for the financial year 1 July 2020 – 30 June 2021 and that the loss of the financial year is recorded in the retained earnings.
