CEO Review

Dear Shareholders,

The first half of 2025 demonstrated strong progress for Optomed, with robust revenue growth reflecting the quality and market demand for our healthcare technology solutions. We have methodically expanded our market presence and strengthened our product portfolio, establishing a solid foundation for continued growth and long-term value creation.

Second Quarter Performance

In the second quarter, we delivered currency adjusted revenue growth of 11.2 percent, reaching EUR 3.8 million. Growth was driven by the Devices segment, which expanded by 36.1 percent on a currency-adjusted basis to EUR 1.4 million, reflecting strong demand for our handheld cameras and solutions. Software revenue remained stable, increasing by 0.1 percent to EUR 2.4 million, supported by long-term customer relationships and recurring contracts.

Our profitability showed clear improvement. EBITDA came in at EUR -0.9 million, an improvement of 22 percent compared to Q2 2024, and the EBITDA margin strengthened to -23.9 percent from -33.8 percent a year ago. This demonstrates ongoing progress to improve profitability supported by operating leverage in Devices and careful cost control. Gross profit increased slightly to EUR 2.5 million, although the gross margin decreased to 64.9 percent (69.9) due to product mix effects.

Cash flow from operating activities was EUR -1.6 million, compared to -0.6 million in Q2 2024. The decline was primarily driven by working capital build-up, as we increased our component inventory to support, among others, the upcoming launch of the Optomed Lumo device in the second half of the year. While this impacted short-term cash flow, it ensures we can meet the strong demand for the second half. At the end of June, our cash and cash equivalents stood at EUR 7.1 million, supported by a strong equity ratio of 74.9 percent.

R&D expenses increased to EUR 0.5 million, reflecting our commitment to innovation. Investments were particularly directed toward advancing AI capabilities and preparing for the Lumo launch.

Strategic Milestones

We successfully launched the Optomed Lumo in Q2, marking a major milestone in our growth strategy. Early feedback highlights Lumo's superior image quality, ease of use, and seamless integration into existing healthcare systems, strengthening our position in the fast-growing retinal imaging market. By enabling advanced oculomics insights, Lumo supports more precise and comprehensive eye health assessments. With strong initial demand and smooth adoption into clinical workflows, Lumo is set to become a key driver of our revenue growth in the coming quarters and years. Optomed Lumo has received FDA PJZ classification, allowing us to market it in the U.S. as a Class II retinal camera without a lengthy clearance process. Under this classification, Lumo can only be used as a standalone imaging device and not yet for AI-based disease diagnosis.

In the US, Aurora AEYE sales have developed positively. Aurora AEYE currently faces no direct competition, as no other handheld fundus cameras have received clearance for diagnostic AI use. Achieving clearance for a diagnostic AI algorithm is already a demanding process - and securing it for a portable device is even more challenging. This gives Optomed a unique and growing strategic lead in the handheld market segment.

Our recent AI clearance is also driving CAPEX sales, further consolidating Optomed's leadership in portable fundus cameras. The Optomed Lumo ramp-up is proceeding as planned, with production and inventory build-up ongoing. Commercial deliveries are expected to start in the second half of the year.

We are also proud to have supported one of the world's top 10 pharmaceutical companies in the development of an advanced algorithm. Initial negotiations are currently underway with the pharmaceutical company for the commercialization of the algorithm with our handheld devices, highlighting the growing importance of AI-driven solutions in healthcare.

During the second quarter, WISER Management Consulting replaced ZhongBao as our joint venture partner in China. WISER is a leading healthcare consulting firm with expertise in regulatory environments and market entry strategy. This partnership provides valuable regulatory knowledge and local market expertise to support our business development in China and leaves open the option for ZhongBoa to rejoin the joint venture at a later growth phase.

From a cost perspective, our cameras are manufactured in Thailand and our COGS are in US dollars. To mitigate supply risk and counter potential tariff increases, the business secured extended inventory of key components, providing longer-term coverage. This cash expenditure will normalize in the foreseeable future. The effect of possible tariffs is limited by the weakened US dollar. However, in response to higher tariffs, we aim to adjust product pricing accordingly. Currency fluctuations affect only the Devices segment, and this exposure has been effectively mitigated by lower COGS and our relatively high USD nominated sales and marketing costs, which together have supported margin stability.

Looking ahead, our full-year 2025 outlook remains unchanged: we expect revenue to grow strongly compared to 2024. We are aware of several probable mid-sized capex orders expected in the second half of the year, which strengthens our confidence in achieving the 2025 forecast. With continued innovation, and deepening global partnerships, we are well-positioned for sustained growth and long-term value creation.

I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to our employees, partners, and shareholders for their trust and commitment. Together, we are advancing Optomed's mission of bringing accessible and innovative healthcare technologies to patients worldwide.

Shares and shareholders

The Company has one share series with all shares having the same rights. At the end of the review period Optomed Plc's share capital consisted of 19,693,297 shares and the Company held 34,729 shares in the treasury which approximately corresponds to 0.18 percent of the total amount of the shares and votes. Additional information with respect to the shares, shareholding and trading can be found on the Company's website www.optomed.com/investors/.

Risks and uncertainties

The key risks and uncertainties are described in the company's Annual Report 2024 which was published on 27 February 2024. The complete report is available at https://www.optomed.com/investors/. The following risks have been updated in connection with the periodic risk review of Q1-2025. In Q2-2025, there were no risk updates.

GEOPOLITICS

Optomed operates globally.

Geopolitical tensions may impact the competitiveness of Optomed's supply chain or sales, leading to increased costs or causing potential disruptions for example in the form of tariffs. Optomed's devices are manufactured in Thailand and one of the key markets is in the US and, therefore, potential large tariffs between the US and Thailand may have a negative effect on the Company's business prospects in the US.

LITIGATION

Optomed operates globally and is subject to the laws and regulations of multiple jurisdictions

The Company may be negatively affected by legal or administrative proceedings in different countries directed at the Company or third parties due to back-to-back liability, and the Company faces, from time to time, other disputes and claims related to product liability and intellectual property rights, especially in terms of medical devices in different countries that the Company must consider pursuant to applicable laws. These can result in costs and liabilities for the Company and have a negative effect on its financial position and business prospects.

TRADE SECRETS AND PATENTS

The technologic capabilities are a competitive advantage that the Company must be able to protect.

Technological capabilities, trade secrets and patents are important for the Company's competitive position, and the Company continuously monitors its IPR portfolio. The Company may not be able to protect its trade secrets and know-how which could lead to losing the competitive advantage the Company has. The Company may also be forced to take actions against parties that violate our IPRs and correspondingly to defend against claims for infringing IPR's of other parties, or seek to agree on the use of IPRs. If the Company is not successful in protecting its IPRs or fails to defend against claims of IPR infringements or to agree on the use of IPRs on favourable terms, this can have a negative effect on the Company's financial position and its prospects.

Audit review

This financial report has not been audited by the company's auditors.

Tech-Aktien mit Crash-Tendenzen
Künstliche Intelligenz, Magnificent Seven, Tech-Euphorie – seit Monaten scheint an der Börse nur eine Richtung zu existieren: nach oben. Doch hinter den Rekordkursen lauert eine gefährliche Wahrheit. Die Bewertungen vieler Tech-Schwergewichte haben historische Extremniveaus erreicht. Shiller-KGV bei 39, Buffett-Indikator auf Allzeithoch – schon in der Dotcom-Ära war der Markt kaum teurer.

Hinzu kommen euphorische Anlegerstimmung, IPO-Hypes ohne Substanz, kreditfinanzierte Wertpapierkäufe in Rekordhöhe und charttechnische Warnsignale, die Erinnerungen an 2000 und 2021 wecken. Gleichzeitig drücken geopolitische Risiken, Trumps aggressive Zollpolitik und saisonale Börsenschwäche auf die Perspektiven.

Die Gefahr: Aus der schleichenden Korrektur könnte ein rasanter Crash werden – und der könnte vor allem überbewertete KI- und Chipwerte hart treffen.

In unserem kostenlosen Spezial-Report zeigen wir Ihnen, welche Tech-Aktien am stärksten gefährdet sind und wie Sie Ihr Depot vor dem Platzen der Blase schützen könnten.
