Paris, July 31^st, 2024 – 9:00 pm

Eurobio Scientific (FR0013240934, ALERS), a leading French group in in vitro specialty medical diagnostics and life sciences, today presents its consolidated first-half revenues for the period ended on June 30, 2024.

Solid revenues growth  of +24%

At the end of June 2024, Eurobio Scientific recorded revenues of €73.4m, compared with €59.1m at the end of June 2023, i.e. an increase of +24%. On a like-for-like basis, i.e. excluding the effects of acquisitions, growth remains solid at +12%.

The perimeter effects for the first half are as follows: DID's revenues amounted to €6.1m, while Alpha Biotech's revenues amounted to €1.3m.

Excluding the effect of changes in the scope of consolidation, the €6.9m increase in revenues came mainly from GenDx, where sales amounted to €3.6m (+32%), and from France, where sales amounted to €3.1m (+8%). The rest of the Group's activities posted limited growth of around 2%.

GenDx grew in all territories (Europe, the United States and internationally), with a number of one-off international distribution contracts contributing to +€0.8m to this growth. Adjusted for this nonrecurring effect, GenDx grew by around 25% over the first half.

The Group’s French activities reported significant growth over the first half, also driven by a number of non-recurring factors, such as the Covid and Pertussis epidemics, and the extension for several

months of certain calls for tender in Transplantation, which maintained business volumes in this segment. Excluding these effects, revenues were stable.

Update on the deployment of the Group's strategy

The Group is pursuing its strategy of targeted geographic and technological expansion, with the ambition of becoming a leading international company in the speciality diagnostics market, offering to its customers a complete range of molecular diagnostic solutions based on its own products and those of its partners.

•       Stable share of proprietary products 

The share of proprietary products is stable, despite the integration of DID's distribution activities, and reached around 29% of revenues (compared with 30% of revenues in the first half of 2023).

•       International in progress

Revenues outside France grew to 42% of total revenues (compared with 35% in the first half of 2023). This increase is mainly due to new acquisitions, but also to the development of cross-sales of the Group's proprietary products.

Outlook

The Eurobio Scientific Group is continuing to implement the strategic directions it has been developing for several years: the development of proprietary products, the internationalization and the opening up of new markets. Over the next 5 years, the Group's ambition is for proprietary products to account for around 50% of its sales.

Proposed tender offer

Funds managed by NextStage AM and IK Partners, together with Mr. Denis Fortier, CEO, and other members of the Company's Board of Directors and senior management, have decided to form a consortium (the "Consortium") to launch a voluntary tender offer for all outstanding Eurobio Scientific shares. A press release, published jointly by the Company and the Consortium, presenting this project and its main preliminary features is available on the Company's website eurobio-scientific.com.
