SUMMARY

The COVID-19 situation continued to impact the operations, by continously forcing ChemoTech to cancel marketing activities and postpone deliveries and training of local doctors. The savings package set in place continued to strengthen the cash flow. Through rapid conversion, the company was able to continously reduce costs during the quarter, the result for the quarter had a “positive” effect and amounted to kSEK -2,557 compared with kSEK -3,464 previous quarter.

We experienced no order cancellations during the quarter, which means that the order backlog is unchanged and amounts to kSEK 596 at the end of the quarter.

The new share issue was oversubscribed by more than 200% and contributed to the company, including an over-allotment issue, approx MSEK 12.5 before issue costs.

The company’s CE marking process was also affected as a result of COVID-19 and the work of implementing the necessary changes in our documentation has been slower than anticipated. After the end of the quarter, the company reached an important milestone when the first delivery of CE-marked treatment kits arrived from its manufacturer.

After the end of the quarter ChemoTech, in collaboration with the HCG group (HCG Cancer Hospital in Bangalore, India), conducted the company’s first international webinar. The event was very successful with 50 doctors from about 10 countries participating.

The wholly owned subsidiary Vetiqure AB which was registered after the quarter, in August, will continue to establish collaboration and strategic alliances with individual veterinarians and larger clinics, in order to create a solid base for launching outside the Nordic region as well.

Our focus areas this coming autumn will be the continued CE-marking of IQwaveTM, to start treatments within the HCG Group in India, complete our Horizon application, where the application date has been postponed until beginning of 2021, other marketing efforts in Southeast Asia, Africa and Ukraine (once the countries open up) and begin the commercialization of Vetiqure AB.
