PARIS & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:

Mauna Kea Technologies (Euronext: MKEA) inventor of Cellvizio®, the multidisciplinary probe and needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (p/nCLE) platform, today reported its revenue for the second quarter and half year ended June 30, 2023.

Highlights:

• Revenue up 77% in Q2 2023 driven by U.S. sales growth and licensing fee income from the J.V. with Tasly Pharmaceutical
• PPU growth accelerates to 50%, benefitting from increased utilization and new users
• Clinical development activity remains high, including a new dual-center peripheral lung cancer study at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville and Rochester in the United States
• Growing strategic partnership pipeline reflects increasing role of Cellvizio interventional oncology advanced imaging in new procedures

Sacha Loiseau, Ph.D., Chairman and CEO of Mauna Kea Technologies, commented: “Building on strong Q1 results, we are very pleased with our Q2 commercial performance, led by notable U.S. sales momentum in systems and consumables, as well as our PPU (pay-per-use) program, despite ongoing fluorescein supply issues. Strategically, the Mauna Kea team has done an excellent job advancing the implementation of our previously announced Joint Venture with Tasly Pharmaceutical, a collaboration that is core to capturing the large and growing Chinese domestic market. Finally, we are exploring an expanding number of strategic partnership opportunities, where we see the potential to accelerate the adoption of Cellvizio in novel indications, a strategy we believe creates capital efficient growth potential and value for our shareholders.”

Second Quarter Sales:

Second Quarter & First Half 2023 Sales by Category:

In the second quarter of 2023, total sales amounted to €2,679k including direct sales of €2,180k, up +44%, and licensing and technology fees of €499k corresponding to the quarterly recurring revenue from the JV with Tasly Pharmaceutical. Sales of systems posted a strong 93% growth in Q2 2023 benefiting in particular from new sales in the United States. Consumables sales were up +40% in the quarter driven mainly by the PPU program.

In the first half of 2023, total sales reached €6,848k, up +102% versus prior year, positively impacted by the recognition of €3,301k in licensing and technology fees from the JV with Tasly Pharmaceutical.

Second Quarter & First Half 2023 Sales by Geography:

In the second quarter of 2023, sales were mostly driven by the United States and to a lesser extent by Europe. The United States benefited from additional sales of systems and probes, and from the acceleration of PPU revenue, even though impacted by an ongoing shortage of fluorescein. In Asia-Pacific, as expected, there were no sales in China due to the transfer of Mauna Kea activities to the JV, but the Company still recorded sales of services outside China.
