CEO Review
Dear Shareholders
I am pleased to present Optomed's financial and operational results for the
fourth quarter and full year 2024. This has been a year of both challenges and
significant achievements as we continue to drive innovation and expand our
market presence. Despite macroeconomic headwinds, we have made important
progress in our strategic initiatives, particularly in the U.S.
October - December 2024
Optomed delivered strong growth in the fourth quarter of 2024, with revenue
increasing by 39.3% to EUR 5.1 million, compared to EUR 3.7 million in the same
period of 2023. This growth was primarily driven by the significant increase in
the Devices segment, which saw revenue surge by 149.3% to EUR 2.6 million (Q4
2023: EUR 1.0 million). A key driver of this growth was a large order from the
U.S., reflecting the increasing demand for our innovative handheld fundus
cameras in the market.
In contrast, revenue in the Software segment declined slightly by 3.3% to EUR
2.5 million (Q4 2023: EUR 2.6 million). While we continue to see strong
engagement from our existing customers, the segment faced temporary challenges
related to contract renewals and delayed purchasing decisions by some clients.
Optomed's Adjusted EBITDA improved compared to the previous year, amounting to
EUR -0.5 million (Q4 2023: EUR -0.8 million). This represents an improvement in
profitability, with Adjusted EBITDA margin rising to -10.7%, compared to -20.7%
in Q4 2023. The improvement was driven by higher revenue from the Devices
segment, operational efficiency measures, and disciplined cost control.
January - December 2024
For the full year 2024, Optomed's revenue remained stable, decreasing slightly
by 0.4% to EUR 15.0 million (2023: EUR 15.1 million). While overall growth was
limited, the performance varied across our two main business segments.
Devices segment revenue increased by 6.3% to EUR 5.3 million (2023: EUR 5.0
million), driven by strong demand in the U.S. The US has become our largest
market within the Devices segment in 2024.
Software segment revenue declined by 3.7% to EUR 9.7 million (2023: EUR 10.1
million). The decrease was mainly due to slower-than-expected contract renewals,
but we anticipate a recovery in 2025 especially in the dental business which a
new business segment for Optomed.
Optomed's profitability was impacted by investments in growth, leading to an
Adjusted EBITDA of EUR -2.8 million (2023: EUR -1.5 million), corresponding to
-18.7% of revenue (2023: -9.7%). The decline reflects our strategic investments
in AI-driven technology, regulatory approvals, and market expansion initiatives,
which we expect to yield long-term benefits.
Key Achievements in 2024
· FDA clearance for Optomed Aurora together with our partner AEYE Health: one
of our most significant achievements in 2024 was successfully obtaining FDA
clearance for Optomed Aurora with AEYE-DS AI in Q2. This marks a major milestone
as Optomed Aurora AEYE became the first AI-powered handheld fundus camera to
receive FDA clearance for detecting diabetic retinopathy. This clearance opens
new opportunities in the U.S. market, reinforcing our leadership in AI-driven
eye diagnostics.
· Our new fundus camera successfully received CE certification according to
new regulation (MDR). This device will be a game-changing component in the field
of oculomics´s expansion and breakthrough in the field.
· Strategic Expansion in China: In Q2 2024, Optomed signed a shareholder
agreement with Zhongbao Fund to establish a joint venture in China.
· We successfully entered into the dental imaging segment for several major
well-being services counties. This marks an opportunity for us and provides a
strong foundation for future growth. We also managed to secure continuation for
our non-healthcare-related business. This business has been in the past years a
significant part of software segments overall business.
· Successful fundraising: To support our growth strategy, Optomed successfully
completed a directed share issue in Q2 2024, raising gross proceeds of
approximately EUR 7.9 million. This funding has provided us with additional
resources to advance our AI technology, expand into new markets, and invest in
product innovation. Our cash position remains strong at the year end of 2024 and
this enables us to drive our key growth initiatives forward.
Year 2025
Looking ahead to 2025, Optomed remains committed to its mission of making eye
screening accessible and efficient worldwide. Among others, we expect the
following items to support our revenue growth in 2025:
· Increased adoption of AI-powered screening solutions, particularly in the
U.S. following the FDA clearance.
· New partnerships and collaborations with healthcare providers and research
institutions.
· Continued innovation and investment in AI and handheld imaging technology.
We are confident that our strong foundation, strategic initiatives, and
commitment to innovation will drive sustainable growth and improved
profitability in the years ahead.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank our employees, customers,
partners, and shareholders for their continued trust and support. Together, we
are shaping the future of AI-powered eye diagnostics.

Directed share issue
Optomed completed a directed share issue consisting of 1,500,000 shares and
collected gross proceeds of approximately EUR 7.9 million in June 2024.
According to the assessment of the Company, the Share Issue supports the
Company's target best compared to other equity financing options.
The Board has considered other financing options, including various capital
market financing options. According to the assessment of the Board, the other
alternatives involved significant costs, timetable requirements as well as
uncertainties related to the implementation which are not in the interest of the
Company and its shareholders when taking into account the Company's capital
needs and the need for rapidly developing the Company's business to utilise its
market position. Therefore, the Board of the Company has considered that there
is a weighty financial reason for the Company to deviate from the pre-emptive
subscription rights, and according to the Board of the Company, the Share Issue
is in the interest of the Company and its shareholders.
The subscription price was EUR 5.25 per Share. The subscription price
represented a discount of approximately 13.8 per cent compared to the closing
price of the Company's share on 26 June 2024. The subscription price has been
determined through negotiations corresponding to a bookbuilding, involving a
limited number of institutional and qualified investors. The investors were
identified on the basis of their investment potential, expertise in the Company
and its industry, and knowledge of the Finnish market. The purpose of the
procedure has been to ensure the realisation of the financing arrangement and
the subscription price being market based. The subscription price was credited
in full to the Company's reserve for invested unrestricted equity.
New shares subscribed for in Optomed Plc's directed share issue have been
registered into the Finnish Trade Register, and the shares were admitted to
trading on the official list of Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd on 1 July 2024.
Risks and uncertainties
Optomed has reviewed its complete risk position after the year end of 2024. The
complete risk position is as follows.
GEOPOLITICS
Optomed operates globally.
Geopolitical tensions may impact the competitiveness of Optomed's supply chain
or sales, leading to increased costs or causing potential disruptions for
example in the form of tariffs.
HIGH QUALITY PRODUCTS
The quality and safety of the Company's products are extremely important for
Optomed's competitiveness.
The Company may be adversely affected if it fails to continuously develop and
update its fundus cameras and software solutions or to identify or integrate new
products and product platforms into its offering. The Company's or its partners'
products may also be subject to clinical trials, the results of which are
critical for the products' regulatory approvals and market acceptance.
STRATEGY AND M&A
The Company may be unsuccessful in fulfilling its strategy or the strategy
itself may be unsuccessful .
The successful implementation of the Company's strategy depends upon a number of
factors, some of which are completely or partially outside the Company's
control. The Company has an appropriate risk management function in the context
of the size of the Company's operations, however, it may not be able to identify
or monitor all relevant risks and determine efficient risk management procedures
and responsible persons that may again affect the strategy. The Company is also
dependent on its ability to develop and manage varying routes-to-market for its
products, the efficiency of its sales channels and its customer and distributor
relationships. Further, the Company has an opportunistic view on M&A which by
nature include inherent risks. Failure of strategy may force the Company to
record write-downs on its goodwill.
MARKET AND COMPETITION
Optomed operates in a niche market that is highly competitive.
Optomed operates in the fundus camera market that is developing fast and the
competition is sometimes fierce. The market acceptance of the Company's products
and solutions is important for our future growth. Optomed recognizes a
possibility of new market changing products entering the market. Further, in
certain key geographies the client base is limited and, therefore, a loss of a
key customer in a key market may adversely affect our revenue streams.
EXTERNAL ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL RISKS AND NATURAL DISASTERS
Optomed operates globally and is thus exposed to various external risks.
The Company is exposed to natural disasters taking place in countries where it
operates and general and country specific economic political and regulatory
risks, which could entail volatile sales in key markets.
SUPPLY CHAIN
Optomed's business is dependent on the effectiveness of purchasing materials,
manufacturing and timely distribution.
The Company is dependent on contract manufacturers for functioning, efficient
and effective production and product assembly. Further, the Company is dependent
on suppliers which may affect the Company's ability to supply its customers in a
timely manner.
SYSTEMS AND INFORMATION
Our operations are increasingly dependent on IT systems.
Disruption of the Company's IT systems could inhibit our business operations in
a number of ways, including disruption to financial reporting, sales, production
and cash flows.
LITIGATION
Optomed operates globally and pursues double-digit annual organic growth in
medium term.
Optomed may not always be able to reach the best contractual terms with
stakeholders. The Company may be negatively affected by legal or administrative
proceedings directed at the Company or third parties due to back-to-back
liability, or other disputes and claims including product liability, especially
in terms of medical devices, and intellectual property rights related items.
TRADE SECRETS AND PATENTS
The technologic capabilities are a competitive advantage that the Company must
be able to protect.
The Company may not be able to protect its trade secrets and know-how which
could lead to losing the competitive advantage the Company has. At the same
time, the Company maybe forced to take actions against parties that violate our
IPRs.
TALENT & ORGANISATION
A skilled workforce and agile organisation are essential for the continued
success of our business.
The Company may be adversely affected if it would lose its key personnel or
fails to attract the right talent.
FINANCE
The Company needs external financing to operate and is not currently
profitable.
The Company is dependent on external financing and the Company may have
difficulties accessing additional financing on competitive terms or at all which
may again contribute the Company's liquidity risks. The Company is also subject
to credit and counterparty risks through its trade receivables.
FOREX
We operate globally and are thus exposed to currency exchange risks.
The Company is exposed to foreign exchange rate risks arising from fluctuations
in currency exchange rates, especially with regards USD, EUR and RMB. Currency
rates, along with demand cycles, can result in significant swings in the prices
of the raw materials needed to produce our goods and our sales prices and OPEX.
LEGAL AND REGULATORY
Compliance with laws and regulations is an essential part of Optomed's business
operations.
Optomed together with its suppliers and distributors operate globally and are
subject to various national and regional regulations in the areas of medical
devices, product safety, product claims, data protection, intellectual property
rights, health and safety, competition, employment, taxes and anti-money
laundering and anti- bribery & corruption (AML & ABC). Further, many of the
Company's devices are subject to various medical related assessment (including
clinical trials), clearance and approval processes that are required to place
our products the market. Failure to comply these might lead to loss of sales
permits in different markets, product recalls, reputational issues, civil and
criminal actions leading to various direct and indirect damages to Optomed and
its employees that are not completely covered by Optomed's insurance coverage.
Especially, failures with respect to compliance with certain medical devices
related regulations and processes may hinder the Company's devices' market
access.
The Board's proposal for the distribution of profit
The parent company's non-restricted equity on 31 December 2024, was EUR
28,957,353.52 and the net loss for the financial year was EUR -4,931,484.87. The
Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend will
be paid and the non-restricted equity on the outstanding 19,693,297 shares shall
be retained and carried forward.

Corporate information and basis of accounting
Corporate information
Optomed is a Finnish medical technology group (hereafter ‘Optomed' or ‘Group')
that specialises in handheld fundus cameras and solutions for screening of
blinding eye diseases, established in 2004.
The Group's parent company, Optomed Plc (hereafter the ‘Company'), is a Finnish
public limited liability company established under the laws of Finland, and its
business ID is 1936446-1. It is domiciled in Oulu, Finland and the Company's
registered address is Yrttipellontie 1, 90230 Oulu, Finland.
Basis of accounting
Optomed's consolidated financial statements has been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European
Union. The preparation of this financial statements bulletin also takes into
account the amendments to IFRS standards that have become effective by January
1, 2024. This financial report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34
Interim Financial Reporting and it should be read in conjunction with Group`s
annual consolidated financial statements
All presented figures have been rounded so the sum of the individual figures may
differ from the presented total figure.
Financial ratios have been calculated using exact figures.
This report has been authorized for issue by the company`s board of directors.
Critical management judgments and related estimates and
assumptions
The preparation of financial statements under IFRS requires management to make
judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the end
of the reporting period as well as the reported amounts of income and expenses
during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are based on
historical experience and other justified assumptions, such as future
expectations, that Optomed management believes are reasonable under the
circumstances at the end of the reporting period and the time when they were
made.
Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current
events and actions, actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis and
when preparing financial statements. Changes in accounting estimates may be
necessary if there are changes in the circumstances on which the estimate was
based, or as a result of new information or more experience. Such changes are
recognized in the period in which the estimate or the assumption is
revised.
Use of judgment and estimates
Judgements that management has made in the process of applying accounting
policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in
the financial statements, relate to the following areas:
— Determining trade receivables credit risk
— capitalization of development costs: determination of development expenditure
eligible for capitalization
— impairment testing of development expenditures
