Q3 2022 Financial results
The consolidated reportable segments of Predictive Oncology’s recognized revenue is $455,827 for the quarter, which has increased from $313,663 to the comparative three-month period of 2021, which depicts a revenue growth of 45%.
Helomics reported an improvement in its net losses primarily due to a decrease in impairment charges in 2022.
The gross profit margin has grown during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 to 76% compared to 65% in the comparable 2021 period, which represents a material upward movement of 11%.
Research and development costs reduced to $116,763 in the quarter ended September 30, 2022, from $234,357 in the quarter ended September 30, 2021 which represents a positive change of 50%, due to the consolidation of the company’s lab to Pittsburgh.
General and administrative expenses increased to $3,287,918 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, from $2,061,458 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, which was primarily due to higher payroll resulting from the acquisition of zPREDICTA and costs related to the consolidation of the Massachusetts TumorGenesis division to Pittsburgh and the accrued expenses for the retirement of our CEO.
Operations expenses have increased to $857,130 from $648,935 in the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same quarter of 2021, primarily due to higher costs related to staff including the increased headcount at zPREDICTA, partially offset by lower research and development expenses .
Net cash used in operating activities was $9,135,812 and $8,464,821 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021, respectively. This represents an incremental increase of 8% as compared to the same period of 2021, primarily because of the increase in working capital. Furthermore, net cash provided by financing activities has substantially dropped to $6,739,031 from $50,378,237, an 87% decrease due to the large cash raises in 2021.
The quarterly sales and marketing expenses have increased to $333,377 in September 2022, from $172,869 in the quarter ended September 2021, driven by increased marketing and business development initiatives in the current year.
The company incurred a net loss of $17,821,524 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a $11,900,662 loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The $5,920,862 difference is predominantly due to the goodwill impairment charge of $7,231,093 related to zPREDICTA recognized in 2022 as compared to the goodwill impairment charge of $2,813,792 related to Helomics recognized in 2021. On September 30, 2022, the company had $25,393,738 in cash and cash equivalents.
