Revenue Growth of +41%
The Company generated revenue of €5.81 million in the first half of 2025, compared to €4.12 million in the first half of 2024. This +41% growth over the first six months of 2025 confirms the strong momentum recorded in the previous half year (+66%).
The Spine Implants business generated revenue of €3.99 million in H1 2025, compared to €3.64 million in 2024, representing growth of +10% versus the same period in 2024.
The medical equipment distribution business continued its strong development, supported by the ongoing deployment of the Olea ultrasonic scalpel across all geographic regions, as well as the rollout in the United States under the exclusive partnership signed with elliquence in the endoscopic spine surgery market. Revenue from this activity quadrupled in H1 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, reaching €1.82 million.
In the United States, first-half 2025 revenue amounted to €1.58 million, compared to €0.58 million in the prior year, up +174%, reflecting the commercial developments with elliquence. In France, revenue grew by +5% to €2.32 million. Export activity in the rest of the world also recorded growth of +44%, reaching €1.91 million in H1 2025 compared to €1.32 million in 2024.
Gross Margin and Operating Result
The gross margin amounted to €3.05 million in H1 2025, compared to €2.26 million in H1 2024, an increase of +35%. The accelerated commercialization of the SMTP medical equipment range impacted on the gross margin rate, which decreased from 54.9% to 52.5% between H1 2024 and H1 2025.
Following the implementation of the new organization in the United States and the commercial launch of the Jazz Spinal System hybrid posterior fixation system-the result of the combined expertise of Implanet's and Sanyou Medical's R&D teams-together with the ongoing rollout of the Olea ultrasonic scalpel, the Company accelerated its sales and marketing investments, which increased by €0.47 million compared to H1 2024. Operating expenses therefore rose from €4.57 million in H1 2024 to €5.20 million in H1 2025.
As a result, the operating loss decreased by 8%, standing at -€2.14 million in H1 2025, compared to -€2.32 million in H1 2024.
Taking these factors into account, along with the financial result (mainly composed of a foreign exchange gain), the net result from continuing operations improved by 16%, to -€2.10 million in H1 2025, versus -€2.50 million in H1 2024.
As a reminder, in connection with the sale of the MADISONTM business to SERF, the Company had recorded in H1 2024 an additional sale price of €0.85 million, contingent in part on the acquirer obtaining regulatory approval.
Taking this into account, the net result amounted to -€2.10 million in H1 2025, compared to -€1.65 million in H1 2024.
Cash Position
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had a cash position of €0.50 million.
In addition, during the second quarter of 2025, Implanet secured new financing in the form of a short-term working capital loan from Shanghai Pudong Development Bank ("SPD Bank") totaling RMB 4.75 million (approximately €0.57 million), with a 12-month maturity, repayable in full at maturity, requiring no collateral, and intended to cover supplier payments and other operational expenses. Repayment of this loan is guaranteed by Sanyou Medical.
Considering this recent financing, the projected cash flow based on current business assumptions, anticipated commercial developments for fiscal years 2025 and 2026 and the secured payment facilities with the Sanyou Medical group, the Company believes it will be able to meet its operational financing needs for the next twelve months.
In addition, the Company explores various financing solutions to accelerate the development of its business and support medium-term growth.
