INVESTOR OVERVIEW

CORE BUSINESS

• Sales orders taken for FY23 were, excluding MEG, a record $43.0m, which was 4% higher than the $41.5m achieved in FY22
• Revenues are expected to be about $41m, subject to audit, which is an 11% increase over FY22
• Subject to finalisation of results and audit, EBITDA should be in line with guidance provided with the H1 results, which was for an underlying EBITDA profit of up to $2m for FY23, before MEG write-downs booked 31 December 2022 for $6.9m
• The Company has a solid balance sheet with cash for 30 June at $3.6m, which together with unused banking facilities is about $5.0m. This balance, together with expected ongoing positive operating cash flows, should be sufficient, now, to meet the businesses current and future financing needs.

MEG and Somfit

• Compumedics continues to progress its second MEG sale to Tianjin Normal University (TJNU), China – home of the Psychology and Behaviour Research Centre
• Somfit has now moved to its commercialisation phase, as announced to the ASX on 3rd July and concurrent with this announcement regarding CPAP Direct, with further commercialisation announcements expected over the months ahead.

Compumedics Limited (ASX: CMP) (“Compumedics” or “Company”) wishes to advise the Company has booked record new sales orders, excluding MEG, of $43.0m for FY23, representing growth of 4% over the $41.5m of sales orders booked in FY22.

Revenues for FY23 (subject to audit) at $41m will be 11% higher than FY22 at $37m. This increase was the result of strong revenue performance in most business areas and geographic regions except for our sleep and neuro business in the USA, which finished behind expectations and the DWL business which was working through some Asia based timing issues.

EBITDA, subject to finalisation of the results and audit, should be in line with guidance provided on 28th February 2023, being an underlying result of $2m profit, before the MEG write-downs on 31 December, 2022 for $6.9m. The Company also expects operating cash flow to continue to be positive for H1 FY24 and currently has about $5.0m of cash and unused banking facilities. This, together with positive ongoing operating cash flows, should be sufficient, now, to meet the current and future financing needs of the Company.

The Company expects to release a detailed analysis of FY23 financial results with the Appendix 4E, on or about 28 August 2023.
