Trading update summary
8 Oct, 2026Trading and liquidity
New Health dispensed over 2,300 private prescription orders on 5 Oct 2026, with total order value of ~£0.3m.
Cash, debtors and stock totaled ~£6.36m as at 6 Oct 2026, including cash balances of ~£3.39m; figures are unaudited.
Other working-capital assets: VAT ~£1.40m, September NHS prescription income ~£0.36m, estimated GLP-1 manufacturer rebates ~£0.59m and medication stock at cost ~£0.62m.
The £5m placing proceeds, received 24 Sep 2026, are being applied principally to acquire stock to meet order growth; the placing was settled in full and predominantly taken up by existing shareholders.
Working capital and funding
Indicative term sheet received from a non-bank lender for an £8m working-capital facility; discussions with UK clearing banks and specialist lenders continue on receivables-backed funding.
No facility agreement has been entered into; terms remain under negotiation and completion is uncertain.
No equity fundraising has been agreed and none is planned.
Growth and order economics
New Health incurs discretionary marketing and introductory-pricing costs to acquire customers on their first order; acquisition spend can be adjusted and is expensed as incurred.
Since July 2026, repeat orders at every order cycle have generated positive margin after medication costs; margin increases from the second order, with repeat orders expected to contribute more to cash flows as customers reorder.
