MEDMIRA REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS FY2024

Medmira Inc. has released its financial results for the quarter ended Oct. 31, 2023.

Corporate update

During first quarter fiscal 2024, Medmira continued its focus on its regulatory and clinical trial work for a number of products, while increasing its sales and marketing activities. Throughout the reporting period, the company achieved significant milestones in its pursuit of Food and Drug Administration and Health Canada approvals for a range of products.

Subsequent to Q1 fiscal 2024, the company received the U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance for the HIV-2 claim on the Reveal G4 rapid HIV 1/2 antibody test in the United States. This achievement marks a significant milestone for Medmira, positioning the company as a key player in the HIV testing landscape and addressing the demand for comprehensive HIV screening mandated by various state laws across the nation. It further allows the company to significantly increase its market share and revenue in the United States while reconfirming its quality for its coming clinical laboratory improvement amendments (CLIA) waiver.

This latest approval enables the company to offer the fastest high-quality HIV rapid test which can be sold to CLIA laboratories, clinics and hospitals. In anticipation of the high demand, the company increased its business development unit to assist its existing distribution partners with the product launch and any sales and marketing efforts.

Furthermore, the company was able to discuss its pending and future submissions with Health Canada's in vitro diagnostic division, Medical Device Directorate. The company had a positive dialogue with key staff and is confident to satisfy all regulatory requirements set forward by Health Canada. In addition, the division has provided clear guidance and answers to any open questions to move forward with its pending and subsequent submissions. The company will provide an update in January, 2024.
