September 2024 (Q1 FY25).
Senior management appointments
As announced in November 2023, Dr Parmjot Bains, CEO and Managing Director and Mr
McGregor Grant, CFO and Executive Director commenced in their roles in an interim capacity.
During the quarter the Board confirmed the appointment of Dr Bains as Managing Director
and Chief Executive Officer and Mr Grant as Executive Director and Chief Financial &
Operating Officer on an ongoing basis.
Reimbursement
Reimbursement coverage continues to improve with payor coverage increasing by 6.6 million
lives. Coverage was increased with two additional payors providing positive coverage and one
Page | 1
additional payor providing silent coverage. In addition, a national payer moved from silent
coverage to a BIS specific medical necessity policy (i.e. positive coverage). Covered lives
increased to 146.6 million with 16 states now at critical mass (>80% coverage), 19 private
payors providing positive published coverage and 39 payors providing silent coverage.
Coverage improved in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and New Mexico.
In the quarter, the U.S. National Accreditation Program for Breast Centres (NABPC) released
an update of their Clinical Standards. The standards recommend the use of evidence-based
guidelines to manage survivorship and, for the first time, included lymphoedema prevention
programs utilising bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) as an example.
Key sales metrics and financial update
Implementing the new go to market strategy is on track. Increased earned media activity and
conference attendance continues to drive awareness, lead generation and supports clinical
adoption. The opportunity pipeline, comprising validated leads for SOZO units, continues to
grow, increasing to 585 units, up 34% from last quarter and up 100% over the year. In addition
to the growing pipeline, actual sales momentum is also building with 28 units sold in the US
for the quarter vs 23 units in the prior quarter and 13 units in the quarter before that.
ImpediMed recorded unaudited total revenue of A$2.7 million for the quarter ending 30
September 2024 compared with A$2.9 million in the preceding quarter ending 30 June 2024
(Q4 FY24). The decrease was largely a result of two factors. Firstly, the timing of distributor
inventory restocking which is reported as ROW sales. Actual ROW sales continue at
anticipated levels but distributors didn’t reorder inventory in the quarter. Subsequent to quarter
end distributor orders have been received. The second factor was the strengthening of AUD
vs USD. On a constant currency basis, U.S. revenue was slightly up on the previous quarter.
The Core Business Total Contracted Value (TCV) signed during the quarter was A$4.8 million,
a 40% increase compared with A$3.4 million for Q4 FY24 and A$2.2 million in Q3 FY24.
Contracts in place at the end of Q1 FY25 are expected to generate Core Business Annual
Recurring Revenue (ARR) of A$11.6 million for the 12 months to 30 September 2025. This
compares with ARR at the end of Q4 FY24 of $11.0 million.
Summary of cash receipts and outflows
During Q1 FY25 the Company had net cash outflows from operating activities of A$4.8 million,
which is net of cash receipts from customers of A$2.7 million. The majority of cash outflows
for the quarter related to staff costs which totalled A$4.9 million.
FY25 cash expenditure is forecast to be 10% lower compared with FY24 mainly as a result of
adjustments to headcount and salaries, net of investment in customer facing roles to drive
growth. The Company is forecasting net operating cash outflow for Q2 FY25 to decrease to
below A$3.5 million.
At September 2024, ImpediMed has a total cash balance of A$18.6 million comprising of A$2.8
million cash in bank and A$15.8 million in term deposits.
Payments to related parties and their associates during the quarter disclosed in Section 6 of
the Appendix 4C totalled A$93,000 and comprised payments to Non-Executive Directors.
