Investor update summary
3 Sep, 2026Company overview and strategy
Focused on rapid pharmacogenetic testing to improve patient outcomes in acute care, with two main products: MT-RNR1 (prevents antibiotic-induced hearing loss in newborns) and CYP2C19 (guides antiplatelet therapy in stroke patients).
Products are CE-IVD certified, used in NHS and internationally, and supported by NICE recommendations and strong health economic evidence.
Business model centers on a recurring consumables approach, with a capital-light structure and scalable manufacturing.
Early commercial traction in the UK, Ireland, Saudi Arabia, and the Netherlands, with expanding distributor networks.
Strategic focus remains on these two products, with future potential for broader pharmacogenetic applications and laboratory-based testing collaborations.
Market opportunity and adoption
Estimated total global market opportunity is approximately £480 million, with £126 million in the UK and £190 million in CE-IVD recognized markets.
UK market validation and adoption are key to supporting international expansion, especially in Europe and the Middle East.
NHS Scotland has implemented MT-RNR1 nationally, while NHS England adoption is tied to NICE guidance and national reimbursement expected in July 2027.
International traction is growing, with recent implementations in the Netherlands and Saudi Arabia, and ongoing commercial activities in Spain and the UAE.
U.S. market entry is a longer-term goal, with FDA submission for CYP2C19 underway.
Financial performance and outlook
Revenue has grown from £0.06 million in FY 2023 to £0.5 million in FY 2024, with projections of £1 million in FY 2025 and £1.4 million in FY 2026.
Operating cash burn is approximately £0.35 million per month, with £3 million cash reported at June 2026.
Targeting positive EBITDA in H2 FY 2027, driven by recurring revenue from consumables and disciplined cost management.
Key revenue drivers include NHS England national tender, routine adoption in NHS trusts, international distributor expansion, and the Thermo Fisher laboratory collaboration.
Average unit price per test is £110 for MT-RNR1 and £120 for CYP2C19.
