Gareth Jones, interim Chief Executive Officer, Tissue Regenix Group plc, commented: "The first half of 2020 presented a number of challenges but, despite this, we achieved a number of milestones which will strengthen our market positioning going forward.

Delivering revenues for the first half of the year comparable to the same 2019 period demonstrates that, despite COVID-19 related market disruption, demand for our products remains strong. The recent fundraising has positioned us to capitalise on these opportunities, in particular, enabling us to commence the US facility capacity expansion project and to support our ongoing working capital requirements. Moreover, the launch of new products, in conjunction with an ever-increasing customer base, provides us with greater access to new markets and opportunities in the future.

Over the past year, we have focused on our programme to streamline our supply chain and operations and to appropriately size our overhead cost base. We have continued with this and reduced our overhead spend by a further GBP1.7m (excluding exceptionals) during the first half of the year. This, coupled with an anticipated increase in revenue, is expected to drive the Group towards its target of achieving a position of break-even.

Due to the ongoing uncertainty around the COVID-19 restrictions, it remains difficult for the Board to provide forward looking guidance however, I am pleased with the progress that the Company continues to make and remain confident in the future prospects of the business."

About Tissue Regenix

Tissue Regenix is a leading medical devices company in the field of regenerative medicine. Tissue Regenix was formed in 2006 when it was spun-out from the University of Leeds, UK. The Company's patented decellularisation ('dCELL(R) ') technology removes DNA and other cellular material from animal and human soft tissue leaving an acellular tissue scaffold which is not rejected by the patient's body and can then be used to repair diseased or worn out body parts. Current applications address many critical clinical needs such as sports medicine, heart valve replacement and wound care.

In November 2012 Tissue Regenix Group plc set up a subsidiary company in the United States - 'Tissue Regenix Wound Care Inc.', January 2016 saw the establishment of joint venture GBM-V, a multi- tissue bank based in Rostock, Germany.

In August 2017 Tissue Regenix acquired CellRight Technologies(R) , a biotech company that specializes in regenerative medicine and is dedicated to the development of innovative osteoinductive and wound care scaffolds that enhance healing opportunities of defects created by trauma and disease. CellRight's human osteobiologics may be used in spine, trauma, general orthopaedic, foot & ankle, dental, and sports medicine surgical procedures.

Interim Non-Executive Chairman, Jonathan Glenn

Despite the unprecedented backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic and the additional challenges that this presented, during the first six months of 2020 the Group achieved a number of operational and commercial milestones and it is encouraging to see progress on a number of fronts.

Throughout this period, where lockdown restrictions were in place in both the US and Europe, our US facility remained fully operational enabling us to continue to supply our customer base. Although, the postponement of elective surgical procedures has been felt across the industry, encouragingly we have delivered revenues for the first half of the year which are in line with the comparative 2019 period.

We remain focused on our programme to rationalise the Company's cost base, which was initiated in 2019. This process has continued into 2020, including the plan to relocate the UK head office and manufacturing facility and, in conjunction with careful management of costs across the Group, we have continued to make significant reductions to our overall cash requirements and overhead base.

In June 2020, the Group secured GBP13.8m (net) of funding via an equity placing to support the Group's expansion plans and working capital requirements. Capacity constraints have historically restricted the ability of the business to meet customer demand and these additional funds will enable the Group to implement a capacity expansion programme at its US facility. I am happy to report that the first phase of this commenced in July 2020 and it is anticipated to come on-stream in H1 2021. I would like to take this opportunity to thank both our existing and new shareholders who have supported us in the fundraise.

Outlook

Having secured the required financing to support the capacity expansion project and working capital requirements, the business is focussed on delivering the additional production capabilities in a timely manner and, once operational, we will be positioned to achieve future growth potential as markets stabilise following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Given the uncertainty around the current COVID-19 situation, the potential for a second wave and the time it will take for postponed surgeries to be undertaken, it is difficult for the Board to provide forward looking guidance for the second half of 2020 and beyond. However, in spite of this uncertainty, the Board is encouraged by the progress we have made in the first half of the year, with the start of the expansion programme at the San Antonio facility, attaining the CE mark certification for OrthoPure(R) XT and a reduction in the overhead base whilst maintaining revenues, and as such remain confident about the future prospects for the Group.

Business Review, Gareth Jones, Interim Chief Executive Officer

Revenue

During H1 the Group continued to make operational and commercial progress, despite the backdrop of COVID-19, ending the first half with year-on-year sales maintained in-line with the first six months of the prior year at GBP6.1m (H1 2019: GBP6.1m).

The BioRinse portfolio, under the Orthopaedics and Dental division, returned sales of GBP3.4m (H1 2019: GBP3.0m) a GBP0.4m year-on-year increase (GBP0.3m at constant currency), despite the challenging market conditions; highlighting the demand for our product portfolio and its potential once more normalised market conditions return.

DermaPure sales, under the BioSurgery division, were impacted by the postponement of elective surgical procedures in the US as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This was primarily related to urogynecology procedures and the North East region of the US which was particularly badly affected during H1. Overall sales for the first 6 months of the year were down by GBP0.3m year-on-year to GBP1.7m (H1 2019: GBP2.0m, GBP2.0.m at constant currency).

In Germany, our business was impacted by the lockdown restrictions imposed early in the pandemic. Although a more normalised level of business has now returned, the impact of this lockdown was still felt with sales of GBP1.0m (H1 2019: GBP1.1m) for the first six months of the year.

During this period, the business was also able to secure a number of additional customers and as restrictions implemented as part of the pandemic are relaxed, in conjunction with enhanced operational capabilities coming on stream, the Group will be well placed to capitalise on these opportunities.

Commercial development

During the first half of the year, the Group achieved a number of commercial milestones which will support our strategic growth drivers and provide the basis for additional opportunities in the future.

In May 2020, we announced a strategic collaboration with a top 10 global healthcare company for white label manufacturing of a new soft tissue orthopaedic product, which was the result of an R&D collaboration between the two companies. We have seen a positive market response to this launch and anticipate that this product line will make a material contribution to our top line revenue growth across the next two years.

In addition, we received the CE mark for OrthoPure(R) XT in June 2020, and in August 2020 we announced our first distribution agreement with a specialist supplier of orthopaedic and biologic products covering the UK market. The first modest order has been received and we expect that the initial delivery will take place during Q4 2020.

Operations

Throughout the first six months of the year we were able to fully maintain operations at our San Antonio facility. During this time, we were also granted US Government backed loans of c.$1m to support the employee payroll, healthcare, utilities and rent payments in the US. As these funds were used in the required manner, under the terms of the loans, we anticipate that the loans will be forgiven and will not require repayment. In the UK, operations and technical staff were furloughed for a period in line with the UK Government advice. With the UK business gearing up its operational capabilities to ensure the supply of OrthoPure(R) XT and recommencing various clinical programmes, all furloughed staff were re-engaged in July.

Having identified the need to expand our processing facility in San Antonio, TX, to meet the increasing demand for our products, a second shift was implemented in the current facility during 2019 and we began to see the benefits of this during Q4 2019 and into H1 2020. Furthermore, in August 2019, additional operational capabilities were secured via a lease with an option to buy on a 21,000 sq. ft facility adjacent to the current plot. Proceeds from the GBP13.8m equity fundraise completed in June 2020 will enable this facility to be fitted out, with the first phase of the expansion programme initiated in July 2020.

This capacity expansion project will be undertaken in phases in order to deploy the investment capital in the most efficient manner and bring the new capacity onstream in a staged process to meet the increasing demand. Phase one will involve moving freezer and distribution functions into the new facility which will in turn allow space for additional sterile packaging clean rooms to be installed in the existing facility. Phase two of the project will provide a further 10 additional clean rooms in the new facility.

Funding and cost savings

In June 2020, the Group raised net funds of GBP13.8m through an accelerated book build and PrimaryBid offering. This capital will be used to fund the required investment programme and to provide working capital to support the business.

During 2019, the business commenced a review of its cost base with a view to appropriately sizing its overhead expenditure whilst continuing to support operational and commercial activities. This has continued into 2020 the latest results of which are considered in the post balance sheet events section. Overall, in the first six months of the year this programme has contributed to the business being able to report a reduction in overheads, excluding exceptional costs, of GBP1.7m in comparison to the first six months of 2019.

Financial Overview

Revenue

During the first six months of the year revenue remained in line with the first six months of 2019 at GBP6.1m (H1 2019: GBP6.1m, GBP6.2m on a constant currency basis).

The Orthopaedic and Dental division recorded an increase in revenues at GBP3.4m (H1 2019: GBP3.0m, GBP3.1m at constant currency), as the delays in elective surgeries caused by the pandemic, particularly in the dental sector, were more than offset by demand elsewhere. In contrast, the BioSurgery division recorded a decrease in revenues to GBP1.7m (H1 2019: GBP2.0m, GBP2.0m at constant currency) also caused by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on elective surgeries, particularly in urogynaecology and the North East region of the USA. The impact of the pandemic also affected output in Germany where revenues were reported at GBP1.0m (H1 2019: GBP1.1m, GBP1.1m at constant currency).

Margin

Margin has increased slightly for the period from 47% to 48% largely due to product mix as BioRinse products from the Orthopaedics and Dental division made up a greater proportion of revenues.

Loss for the year

Operating loss in the six months ended 30 June 2020 reduced to GBP2.5m (H1 2019: GBP4.5m). The cost restructuring programme commenced at the end of 2019 reduced administrative expenses by GBP1.7m (excluding exceptionals) during the first six months compared with the comparable period in 2019. Whilst a small part of the reduction was COVID-19 related given travel restrictions and furloughed staff, the majority of these reductions are permanent and anticipated to continue into the second half of the year.

R&D tax credits of GBP0.2m (H1 2019: GBP0.4m) represent the estimated tax credit receivable, together with a premium of 40%, on development costs. The anticipated decrease is expected to arise as more resources are directed away from the development phase and the business looks to commercialise more products.

Exceptional costs of GBP0.1m for 2020 represent the costs incurred in relation to the cyber security incident in the USA.

Cash position

Cash position for the Group at 30 June 2020 was GBP13.7m (H1 2018: GBP10.1m). The Group raised net proceeds of GBP13.8m through a placing in June 2020.

Post balance sheet events

Phase one of the capacity expansion project was commenced in July 2020 and it is expected to take approximately six months to complete. We expect to see the first uplift to the output in processing from this investment in Q2 2021, following the three-month lead time for the osteoinductive testing required for the BioRinse products.

In August 2020, we announced that the UK head office and manufacturing facility will be relocated to Garforth, Leeds in November 2020 from the current site in Swillington, Leeds. This decision was made as part of the ongoing initiatives to appropriately size the overhead cost base. This move is expected to reduce the Group's overhead costs by over GBP0.4m on an annualised basis from 2021. As part of the relocation programme, the Group will outsource elements of the production cycle, including testing and packaging. It will retain its processing functions, including the processing of OrthoPure(R) XT, enabling the Group to meet its initial order due in Q4 2020, and future demand following the agreement signed in August 2020 for UK distribution.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE SIX MONTHSED 30 JUNE 2020

   1.    Basis of preparation 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial information does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The interim financial statements, which are unaudited and have not been reviewed by the Company's auditors, have been prepared in accordance with the policies set out in the 2019 Annual Report and Accounts.

The comparative figures for the year ended 31 December 2019 do not constitute full financial statements and have been abridged from the full accounts for the year ended on that date, on which the auditors gave an unqualified report, but did contain an emphasis of matter paragraph in respect of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern due to the fundraise being conditional on shareholder approval. They did not contain any statement under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006. The 2019 accounts have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The Company has chosen not to adopt IAS 34 'Interim Financial Statements'.

   2.    Segmental reporting 

The following table provides disclosure of the Group's revenue by geographical market based on location of the customer:

The Group has accumulated losses available to carry forward against future trading profits.

   4.    Loss per share (basic and diluted) 

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period excluding own shares held jointly by the Tissue Regenix Employee Share Trust and certain employees. Diluted loss per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
