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 2024.

Financial Results for the year ended 31 March 2024

Truscreen generated product sales 27% higher than the prior year at $2.1m (2023: $1.7m).

The sales result was underpinned by a strong result from China which grew by 45% over the prior

year following the recommendations from two key peak organisations - in the COGA Blue Paper

and CSCCP Guideline. Zimbabwe revenue was 34% up on the prior year with further potential

when the National Aids Council screening program is extended outside of the Masvingo province.

Good progress was made in Saudi Arabia, Vietnam and Mexico with stronger sales expected in

FY2025.

Gross margin improved YOY from 27.6% to 32.7%. Other income was largely in line with the prior

year at $0.5m (2023: $0.54m) attributable to the research and development tax offset.

Total overhead expenses remained unchanged YOY at $3.3m, which includes increased costs due

to inflation and $0.2m incurred in preparation for transition from the current EC regulatory code –

the MDD, to the new MDR code.

The Company incurred an operating loss for the year of $2.1m (2023: loss $2.4m), a 15%

improvement on the prior year.

Net operating cash outflow for the year was lower at $2.0m (2023: $2.2m) reflecting improved

revenue and margin.

As at 31 March 2024, Truscreen had cash and cash equivalents of $2.7m (2023: $2.2m).

China Recognition in China Blue Paper and Endorsement from CSCCP


During the year TruScreen was recognised in a COGA Blue Paper “Cervical Cancer Three Stage

Standardized Prevent and Treatment”. Blue Papers 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 paper was the result of four years of research and collaboration by many experts in gynaecology,

including a number of leaders

3

in the field and 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 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 in comparison to screening of LBC and HPV.


Separately, the TruScreen technology has also been endorsed in the 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.

the past Chairman of The Chinese Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Association (COGA ) Professor Lang Jinhe, the

newly appointed COGA Chairman Professor Di Wen, Chinese Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology (CSCCP)

Chairwomen Professor Wei Lihui, the head of Women and Children's Health Division of National Health Commission Xu

Xiaochao, Secretary General of China Preventive Healthcare Association Zhang Lingli.











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.


As a result of these recommendations our China business grew by 45% YOY. This growth is

evidenced by 7 hospital tenders won by distributor SWXT 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.



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 2024. TruScreen is expecting that the program will expand beyond the

Masvingo province in 2024/2025.


TruScreen's screening program in Masvingo Province began in 2022 and has already screened over

14,000 women in 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.


Commercial operations commence in Saudi Arabia


The Dr Sulaiman Al-Habib Medical Group installed four TruScreen devices for commercial use for the

screening of cervical cancer in Saudi Arabia during the year.


Dr Sulaiman Al-Habib Medical Group (DSAMG) is the largest private hospital network in the Middle

East. The adoption of TruScreen’s screening technology by DSAMG private hospitals is an important

reference sites for further market access in neighbouring Middle Eastern nations.


TruScreen included on the Vietnamese Ministry of Health Approved Technical List


During the year TruScreen achieved inclusion on the Vietnamese Ministry Of Health (MOH) approved

Technical List. This is a significant milestone enabling TruScreen to be used nationally from top level

hospitals to community health centres.


The listing, combined with recent changes to medical device procurement regulations in Vietnam

reduces the need for individual hospitals to seek prior central Ministry of Health approval for purchase.

These changes dramatically shorten the medical device procurement process in Vietnam. The MOH

listing was based on extensive clinical evidence and positive feedback from local users at several

levels of the public healthcare providers, including Key Opinion Leaders from the leading

gynaecological hospital, Hanoi Obstetrics and Gynaecology Hospital.














Approval in Mexico for TruScreen to enter public health system


The national regulator of Mexico, Cofepris approved TruScreen access to the public health sector.

This allows TruScreen to expand its cervical cancer screening beyond private health clinics to the

wider public health sector. A 2020 census identified that only 2.3% of the population have private

healthcare while 70.9% of the population accessed the public health system.


Mexico has an addressable market of 65 million women, and Cervical cancer is the second most

prevalent cancer amongst women in Mexico. HPVcentre.net estimates that 9,400 women are

diagnosed annually with cervical cancer with a mortality rate of 46% - 4,300 deaths.



Evaluation of TruScreen underway in Uzbekistan, Poland and North Macedonia


The Ministry of Health in Uzbekistan is evaluating TruScreen as a technology partner to deliver a

component of the Uzbekistan National Screening Solution for Cervical Cancer. This program is a first

for Uzbekistan and being selected would be a transformative opportunity for TruScreen, not just in

Uzbekistan but also to serve as a reference site for other neighbouring Central Asian countries.


Poland continues to face significant challenges with cervical cancer. TruScreen is working with the

Mother and Child Institute and has identified both private and public hospitals targeted to be the first

to change from Liquid Based Cytology to TruScreen. TruScreen is shortly entering the hospital

validation phase with commercial sales to follow the successful completion of this evaluation.

In North Macedonia TruScreen is currently undergoing evaluation by a local distributor who operates

a Medical Clinic. When successful, TruScreen will replace Pap Smear in the clinic. This clinic will

serve as a base for demonstration and training for future customers in south eastern Europe. This

partnership marks a significant milestone as it would be TruScreen's first partner who is both a

distributor and a key reference centre.

In addition, TruScreen, with the support of the local Austrade office, is making strides in Indonesia

with partner Mursmedic. Mursmedic have commenced the product registration process for TruScreen

in Indonesia. A key reference site in Jakarta has been identified and installation is to occur as soon

as the product registration is completed.

TruScreen is also in the process of registration in Kenya through our logistics partner, Phillips Pharma

Group. TruScreen will partner with Phillips Pharma first in Kenya, and then to expand to other

countries within their footprint, including Nigeria, Uganda, Ghana and Tanzania.

Corporate


TruScreen has again expended significant effort during the year in preparing for the Medical Device

Regulation (MDR), a new regulatory framework that replaced the Medical Device Directive (MDD) for

medical devices being made and/or sold in the European Union, and has also expended significant

effort in finalising its Chinese regulatory (NMPA) approval.











Appointment of CEO

The Company appointed Martin Dillion as CEO in March 2024.

Mr Dillon, previously successfully

established the TruScreen global distribution network, launched the TruScreen Ultra2 device, is well

versed in the technology and is well known to distributors. Mr Dillon also managed the listing of

TruScreen on the NZX in 2014.


Capital Raising

The Company raised approximately $2.6m, before costs in March 2024, through a placement of $1.2

million and $1.4 million through 1 for 3 pro rata renounceable rights issue. In total the Company issued

132,565,777 new shares at $0.02 each.

This announcement approved for release by the Board.

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. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

General Information

These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Truscreen Group 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 2023 and Annual Financial Statements for

the year ended 31 March 2023. 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:

• Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The application of NZ IFRS 15: Revenue from contracts with customers (NZ IFRS 15) requires the

Directors to apply judgement in determining whether revenue can be recognised in advance of the receipt

of cash.


The significant judgements adopted by the Group in applying NZ IFRS 15 criteria include:

• Determining if a contract with the customer exists;

• Determining if the entity can identify the payment terms for the services; and

• Determining whether it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration to which it is entitled.













The accompanying notes form part of these financial statements.

7



NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (continued)

• 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 a previous year.

Given the ongoing significant uncertainty associated with achieving revenue and profitability targets, the

Directors have determined that the intangibles should remain fully impaired as at 31 March 2024.

• Estimate of the Research and Development tax offset

The Group receives a research and development tax offset based on 43.5% of research and development

expenditure incurred. The amount is received following filing of the Group income tax returns. The Group

estimates the amount of the offset assisted by external consultants and accounts for the amount as a

receivable at year end.

• Provision for inventory obsolescence

The Group carries inventory of parts for the manufacture of the TruScreen Ultra® cervical cancer screening

device. The Company will write off parts which it no longer considers usable. The Group has made a

general provision for inventory obsolescence.

• Provision for warranty

The Group will undertake recalibration of the TruScreen Ultra® on an ongoing basis during the warranty

period. While the Group will continue to undertake research and development of the product, the TruScreen

Ultra® is a mature and well tested product and the Group has determined on the basis of materiality that no

warranty provision is necessary.

• Share based payments

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with directors, employees and distributors by

reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.
