Compumedics Limited (ASX: CMP) wishes to advise that, as noted in its Business Update at the financial half-year, the Company has now received new sales orders from China. These sales orders amount to AUD 4.3m (USD2.9m) and underpin ongoing revenues from China at pre-pandemic levels.

The Company is also pleased to announce its first significant Australia-based sale of Okti®, its new neurological monitoring platform, to the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne. The Company is currently progressing other Okti® sales in Australia. Further, given FDA clearance in the USA, as announced on 8 March 2023, marketing and sales demonstration activities are underway in this key market for the Okti® technology. The Company has also made initial sales of Okti® in France, all of which points to this new neurological monitoring technology being favorably received by key markets around the world.

As a result, the Company re-affirms its existing revenue guidance of more than $40m for FY23, with H2 FY23 EBITDA of about $2m and FY23 underlying EBITDA about $1.0m, excluding MEG re-set costs from H1 FY23 of $6.9m.
