NZX/ASX Announcement
30 May 2023
TruScreen FY23 Preliminary Results
(all numbers in New Zealand Dollars)
Highlights
• Despite COVID interruptions in China and Vietnam, product revenues were in line
with prior year, with 7% growth in H2 YOY
• Device sales up 88% YOY with 49 units spread across China, Vietnam, Mexico,
Russia. Device installations increase by 15% YOY to 217
• Major breakthroughs in China with recommendations in joint peak organisations

Blue Paper and CSCCP Guideline
• Outstanding clinical results from Saudi Arabia clinical trial
Cervical cancer technology company Truscreen Group Limited (ASX/NZX: TRU) (the Company)
has released its preliminary unaudited financial results for the year ended 31 March 2023.
Financial Results for the year ended 31 March 2023
Truscreen generated product sales in line with the prior year at $1.7m (2022: $1.7m).
As markets recovered post COVID TruScreen saw renewed demand for its TruScreen Cervical
Cancer Screening Device from China, Vietnam, Mexico and Russia. The extended lockdown in
China resulted in reduced number of tests in that market, impacting on overall SUS unit sales which
declined by approximately 9%.
Other income decreased by 44% to $0.54m (2022: $0.97m) given a decrease in the research and
development tax offset, and a 23% fall attributable to the removal of Australian government COVID
assistance.
Total overhead expenses, excluding depreciation, amortisation and impairment declined to $3.3m
(2022: $3.9m), attributable to a reduction in research and development given that the product is
now more mature and robust.
The Company incurred an operating loss, before depreciation, amortisation and impairment, of
$2.3m (2022: loss $2.5m), a 6% improvement on the prior year. Total loss for the year was $2.4m
(2022: $7.9m), with the previous year including a non-cash provision for depreciation and
impairment of the remaining carrying value of non-current assets in that year in the amount of
$5.4m.
While the global certainties have reduced your Board has determined that given ongoing the level
of uncertainty that exists in markets in which it distributes its product, namely Russia and Eastern
Europe, that the carrying value of non-current assets, including those acquired this year, remain
fully impaired.

Committee of China, Women and Children's Health Research Institute, Cancer Prevention and Control
Professional Committee of China Preventive Healthcare Association, National Healthcare Industry Entity
Management Association, and the Genital Health Division of China Population Culture Promotion Association.
The provision for impairment, will be reviewed as uncertainties recede at future balance dates and
reversed where applicable. The provision is non-cash and has no impact on the operations of the
Company.
Net operating cash outflow for the year was lower at $2.2m (2022: $2.5m) reflecting higher receipts
from customers and lower costs.
As at 31 March 2023, Truscreen had cash and cash equivalents of $2.2m (2022: $2.8m).

China Recognition in China Blue Paper and Endorsement from CSCCP
Subsequent to year end TruScreen was recognised in a China Blue Paper “Cervical Cancer Three
Stage Standardized Prevent and Treatment”. Blue Papers are promulgated to act as the definitive
position on leading edge developments in all industries in China and are recognised as an
endorsement by the experts and leaders in the relevant field.
The publication presents a consensus on the most successful and innovative technologies and
methods to eradicate cervical cancer in China, in line with the World Health Organisation (WHO)
strategy. The paper was the result of four years of research and collaboration by many experts in
gynaecology, including a number of leaders (1) in the field who attended the publication launch.
The Blue Paper specifically highlights TruScreen in a section titled “Artificial Intelligence Technology
For Cervical Cancer Screening”, describing it’s origin, substantial clinical trials, and the benefits of
using TruScreen as a standalone primary cervical cancer screening method, which has demonstrated
superior sensitivity and specificity results, in comparison to screening of LBC and HPV.
Separately, the TruScreen technology has also been endorsed in CSCCP’s (Chinese Society for
Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology) China Cervical Cancer Screening Management Guideline, one
of the most important specialist medical clinical guidelines governing management of cervical cancer.
CSCCP’s decision to include TruScreen technology in its new Guideline emphasises the role of new
technology in a booming Chinese healthcare sector. The decision is based on the body of evidence
supporting TruScreen clinical use world-wide and after extensive consultations with healthcare
practitioners and decision makers.
CSCCP is a member of IFCPC (The International Federation of Cervical Pathology and Colposcopy)
which is dedicated to reducing the burden of cervical cancer worldwide. The guideline issued by
CSCCP is a leading clinical standard for doctors and other healthcare providers as well as
government bodies.
China, after the COVID lockdown years, is now seeing a strong pipeline of significant growth
opportunities. This includes 7 hospital tenders won with 13 installations pending, 23 hospitals where
TruScreen has been approved and waiting for tender outcomes, and 78 hospitals where Obstetric
and Gynecologic Department acceptance have been received and are waiting for the next stage of
hospital approval.
China distributor, Beijing Siweixiangtai Tech Co. Ltd (SWXT), placed an order for 40 TruScreen
cervical cancer screening devices for installation into China’s growing public Health Check Sector late
in the financial year, with delivery of the devices now having been completed in April and May 2023.
This followed the first installation having been achieved at The People's Liberation Army General
Hospital, one of the leading health check centers in the country, in February 2023.
Zimbabwe government continues roll out of the TruScreen program
TruScreen successfully secured a tender for the supply of a further 10,800 SUS (Single Use Sensor)
which were shipped in March 2023, with the program due to recommence in May 2023.
TruScreen's screening program in Masvingo Province is a collaborative effort between the Ministry of
Health and Child Care, National AIDS Council, and local health partners. The program aims to provide
screening services to women in remote and underserved communities, where access to healthcare
is often limited. The screening program, which began in 2022, has already screened over 10,000
women in Masvingo Province.
Outstanding clinical evaluation results from Saudi Arabia
The leading private medical services provider in Saudi Arabia, Dr. Sulaiman Al-Habib Medical Group
(SHMG), completed the analysis of results from its cervical screening clinical evaluation of TruScreen
Ultra and Liquid Based Cytology (LBC) during the year.
A cohort of 507 women were examined with TruScreen and LBC across multiple medical centres of
SHMG. The preliminary results indicated TruScreen’s sensitivity at 83.3% (LBC: 66%) and specificity
at 95% (LBC 98%).
Russia expands operations into Kazakhstan
TruScreen’s Russia distributor JSC IMSystems extended its presence to Kazakhstan during the year,
which will now be the base of expansion by IMSystems to other Central Asian countries. Kazakhstan
has a population of 18 million spread over an area of 2.7 million square kilometres (the 9th largest
country in the world). Central Asian doctors and healthcare professionals are mostly trained in
Russian universities and hospitals.
On the strength of our Russian distributors expansion into Kazakhstan and to accelerate screening
programmes in Russia and neighbouring Central Asian countries, JSC IMSystems received 11
TruScreen cervical cancer screening devices and 6,120 SUS during the year.
Vietnam demonstrating a positive trajectory with further hospital approvals
TruScreen anticipates that Vietnam will become a market of major focus with significant potential.
A TruScreen seminar hosted by Tu Du Hospital, the most influential gynaecological hospital in South
Vietnam, was held during the year receiving substantial interest, being attended by over 100 doctors.
TruScreen has achieved MOH approval for a number of the most influential hospitals in Vietnam and
is expecting to receive local accreditation shortly, thereby removing the requirement for individual
hospitals to seek prior MOH approval, which will shorten the sales cycle.
Mexico opens cervical cancer screening centre
TruScreen established a cervical cancer screening centre in a new clinic in Cludad de Mexico (Mexico
City) operated by leading healthcare provider Mexpharm Medical Clinical during the year.
The centre run by Mexpharm Medical Clinical, a leader in healthcare care in Mexico, showcases
TruScreen’s medical technology, acts as a training centre, and provides screening services to the
local population. Mexico has a large addressable market with a population of more than 65 million
being female, of whom around half fall within the prime cervical cancer screening age of 25-64 years.
TruScreen hosts Global Medical Symposium and readies for new global Medical Device Regulation
TruScreen completed its first global virtual medical symposium to key opinion leaders from 7
countries, on cervical cancer screening during the year.
The medical symposium was chaired by Professor Neville Hacker, one of the world leaders in
gynaecology-oncology, had 132 registrations from Key Opinion Leaders from China, Mexico, Russia,
Poland, Vietnam, Zimbabwe and Saudi Arabia. The medical symposium enabled professional
discussions on TruScreen and its current clinical data and presented the success in cervical cancer
screening programs in several countries.
TruScreen has expended significant effort during the year in preparing for the Medical Device
Regulation (MDR). MDR is a new regulatory framework that replaced the Medical Device Directive
(MDD) for medical devices being made and/or sold in the European Union. The MDR aims to
strengthen the safety and efficacy of medical devices, improve patient safety, and enhance
transparency and accountability in the medical device industry. The MDR introduces more stringent
requirements for manufacturers, including increased clinical evidence requirements, stricter pre-
market controls and post-market surveillance requirements, and new rules for economic operators,
such as importers and distributors.
TruScreen has also expended significant effort in finalising its Chinese regulatory (NMPA) approval.
In addition to providing approval for the latest TruScreen device updates, this variation will also include
recertification to the updated NMPA standards.

Glossary:
Pap smear (the Papanicolaou smear) test involves gathering a sample of cells from the cervix, with
a special brush. The sample is placed on a glass slide or in a bottle containing a solution to preserve
the cells. Then it is sent to a laboratory for a pathologist to examine under a
microscope. https://www.cancer.net/navigating-cancer-care/diagnosing-cancer/tests-and-
procedures/pap-test
LBC (the liquid-based cytology) test, transfers a thin layer of cells, collected with a brush from the
cervix, onto a slide after removing blood or mucus from the sample. The sample is preserved so other
tests can be done at the same time, such as the human papillomavirus (HPV)
test https://www.cancer.net/cancer-types/cervical-cancer/diagnosis
HPV (human papilloma virus) test is done on a sample of cells removed from the cervix, the same
sample used for the Pap test or LBC. This sample is tested for the strains of HPV most commonly
linked to cervical cancer. HPV testing may be done by itself or combined with a Pap test and/or LBC.
This test may also be done on a sample of cells which a person can collect on their own.
https://www.cancer.net/cancer-types/cervical-cancer/screening-and-prevention
Sensitivity and specificity mathematically describe the accuracy of a test which reports the
presence or absence of a condition. If individuals who have the condition are considered "positive"
and those who don't are considered "negative", then sensitivity is a measure of how well a test can
identify true positives and specificity is a measure of how well a test can identify true negatives:
• Sensitivity (true positive rate) is the probability of a positive test result, conditioned on the
individual truly being positive.
• Specificity (true negative rate) is the probability of a negative test result, conditioned on
the individual truly being negative (Sensitivity and specificity – Wikipedia).

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General Information
These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Truscreen Group Limited (formerly
Truscreen Limited) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”). References to “Truscreen” is used to refer to
Truscreen Group Limited (the “Company”).
The parent company, Truscreen Group Limited, is the ultimate legal parent company of the Group and is a
limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand. It is registered under the Companies
Act 1993. Truscreen is listed on the NZX and on the ASX as an ASX Foreign Exempt Listing.
Truscreen
is a FMC reporting entity under Part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.
The registered office of the Company is Level 6 Equitable House, 57 Symonds St, Grafton, Auckland 1010,
New Zealand. The Group is engaged in the business of the development, manufacture and sale of cancer
detection devices and systems.
Basis of Preparation
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical costs convention, modified by the
revaluation of certain assets and liabilities.
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are unchanged from the
Interim Financial Statements for the period ended 30 September 2022 and Annual Financial Statements for
the year ended 31 March 2022. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented,
unless otherwise stated.
The financial statements have been rounded to the nearest dollar.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future that affects the amounts reported in
the financial statements. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and based on historical
experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances. The estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The
estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing material adjustments to the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:
• Intangibles
The carrying value of intangibles include acquired intellectual property and development costs capitalised
in accordance with the accounting policy for research and development.
The intangibles were fully written off in the previous year.
Given the ongoing significant uncertainty associated with macro-economic events, the Directors have
determined that the intangibles should remain fully impaired as at 31 March 2023.
