During the first half of 2022, TheraVet generated €42,753 of revenues representing an increase of €30,405 as compared to December 31, 2021.

The revenues of the first half of 2021, during which the sales of the BIOCERA-VET® product had started on the Belgian market, then represented an amount of €1,943. During the second half of 2021, the French and Dutch markets were approached, allowing Theravet to reach a turnover of €12,348 as of December 31, 2021. At the end of the first half of 2022, the commercialization of the range BIOCERA-VET® in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Spain enable the company to significantly increase sales.

The Company also generated €870,044 of “capitalised production” as a result of the activation of development expenses related to the BIOCERA-VET® and VISCO-VET® programs during the first half of 2022, representing a decrease of €43,761 as compared to the first half of 2021.

The inventory change of finished products and work in progress increases by €142,359 during the first half of 2022, bringing the inventory from €54,843 at December 31, 2021 to €197,202 as of June 30, 2022. This increase is resulting of the constitution of inventories in marge of the commercial expansion in new market and the expected increased demand.

Other operating income of €98,989 as of June 30, 2022, compared to the amount of €75,958 as of June 30, 2021, represents an increase of €23,031 as a result of the increase in payroll and the financial contributions received in this context.

In accordance with the roadmap presented at the time of the IPO, the increase in “Purchases and expenses" reflects the development of preclinical and clinical programs, the commercialization of BIOCERA-VET® products and the structuring of the Company:

- COGS are significantly increased due to the commercialization of the BIOCERA-VET® products in Belgium, France and the Netherlands as well as the launch of the commercialization in new countries in March 2022 (United Kingdom, Ireland and Spain). A stock of products from the new BIOCERA-VET® products (BIOCERA-VET RTU, Granules and SmartGraft has also been constituted. - R&D expenses of €342,316 as from June 30, 2022 decreased by €285,776 compared to the first half of 2021.

This diminution is explained by the particularly important R&D activities made in 2021:

  • The expenses linked to the development of VISCO-VET® reached €453,099 as of June 30, 2021 (to reach €841,757 at the end of 2021) and covered preclinical studies (on the mechanism of action), clinical developments and the validation of the GMP manufacturing process.
  • The expenses linked to the development of BIOCERA-VET® reached €135,831 as of June 30, 2021 (to reach €298,822 at the end of 2021) and covered the validation of the manufacturing process, the development of analytical methods and the clinical case collection in order to gather safety and efficacy results on the products.

In 2022, activities related to the development of VISCO-VET® represent €241,043 and cover mainly the activities related to the pivotal European clinical study and the manufacturing process validation whereas the activities related to the BIOCERA-VET® product range represent €99,034 mainly covering the clinical case collection.

- Listed company expenses are amounting to €130,103 which represents a decrease of €40,388 compared to the first half of 2021 and resulting from the stock market communication activities. - Marketing & Sales expenses amount to €130,309 representing an increase of €32,410 as compared to first half of 2021, resulting from the effort of the Company to prepare the commercial launch of the BIOCERA-VET® products on the European and American markets. - G&A expenses increased by €118,104 as compared to the first half of 2021 and represent €325,291 mainly as a result of

  • the lawyers support in the preparation of the different partnership agreements negotiated and signed over 2021 and early 2022,
  • the fixed structural expenses related to the employees (increase of its staff from 7 to 12 employees between June 2021 and 2022).

- The costs of consultants and interims are to be analyzed in parallel with the staff expenses since they are operational consultants to structure and strengthen the Company. These costs, representing an amount of €422,776 as of June 30, 2022, increased by €189,023, or 81%, compared to the amount of €233,753 in June 2021. This increase is linked to the increase of the expert consultants as well as a punctual strengthened of the team to prepare the commercial launches and add the new products in the BIOCERA-VET range - Staff expenses reached €611,756 in June 2022, compared to €345,615 in June 2021. This increase of €266,141 is explained by the hiring of 5 new employees as part of the structuring and development of the Company and represent an increase of the payroll of 77%.

Finally, the amortization of development expenses related to the BIOCERA-VET® Bone Surgery and VISCO-VET® programs represents €193,509 in June 2022 and resulted in an operating loss of €1.2 million compared to €978,458 as of 30 June 2021 and a net loss of €1.1 million compared to €770,282 at June 30, 2021.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2022 amounted to €3,498,856 allowing to fund operation until second quarter of 2024.
