Q1 2027 TU earnings summary
8 Oct, 2026Executive summary
Q1 FY2027 delivered lower operating costs and cash outflow following the Q4 FY2026 restructure; quarter-end cash and term deposits were $20.9m, with no debt.
Progress included commercial testing at Hvidovre Hospital, APAC market development and agreement on principal terms for a proposed all-scrip merger with Microba.
Financial highlights
Q1 sales were $4.0m versus $5.4m in Q1 FY2026; customer receipts were $4.2m.
Net operating cash outflow was $1.0m, versus $3.4m in Q4 FY2026 ($2.6m excluding $0.8m one-off redundancy payments) and $2.1m in Q1 FY2026.
Operating expenses, excluding cost of materials, were $4.0m, down 30% from $5.7m in Q1 FY2026; staff costs were $2.5m versus $3.8m YoY.
Quarter-end cash and term deposits were $20.9m, comprising $7.9m in bank balances and $13.0m in term deposits; cash and cash equivalents were $20.931m.
Outlook and guidance
Annualised operational cost savings of up to $5m remain the target following the restructure.
Cash outflows are expected to vary in coming months due to one-off product development costs and seasonal revenue changes.
Priorities include growing EasyScreen sales, broadening the testing menu, building on Hvidovre momentum and pursuing APAC opportunities, with disciplined capital deployment and improved unit economics.
