Trading update

Physiomics plc (AIM: PYC), a provider of technology-based solutions to predict the effects of cancer treatment regimens for the biopharma industry, is pleased to confirm that, based on its unaudited management accounts for the year ended 30 June 2020, the Company is trading in line with analyst expectations.

Trading for the current financial year has started well with a further contract with Bicycle Therapeutics (announced on 30 June 2020), a strong continuing relationship with Merck KGaA as well as a maiden contract (announced 31 July 2020) with Astellas, a Japanese global pharmaceutical company, for a modelling project involving Physiomics' Virtual Tumour™ immuno-oncology model.  In addition, the Company's investment in additional marketing capability has led to an increased volume of introductory calls with potential new clients, some of which the Board hopes will be converted into further projects in the second half of this calendar year.

Net cash as at 30 June 2020, stood at £1.1m, based on the Company's unaudited management accounts, strengthened by an oversubscribed placing announced on 27 May 2020, which raised gross proceeds of £0.83m.

The Company expects to publish its final audited results for the year ending 30 June 2020 during the week commencing 28 September 2020.
