Notes to Editors:
Cyprotex PLC
Cyprotex is the world's largest contract research organisation (CRO) specialising in ADME Tox, which is the analysis of the Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity properties of potential drugs, cosmetics, and agrochemicals. It is the only company in the world with in-house capabilities for both in vitro (test tube) and in silico (computer modelling) ADME Tox. Cyprotex was founded in 1999 and listed on the AIM in 2002. It has laboratories in Macclesfield, Cheshire, UK (near Manchester), and Watertown, Massachusetts, USA (near Boston), making it one of only three ADME Tox CROs with international operations.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer's Report
Fruition of near-term strategic objectives bodes well for future growth
2011 was a year of substantial growth in both revenues and offerings for Cyprotex. Our entry into the in vitro toxicology market has proven to be very successful. In eighteen months, our toxicology revenues have risen from less than 6% to over 23% of our total revenues. Our 2010 acquisition of Apredica, which gave us a US operational platform, has proven timely as drug discovery investment in Europe has fallen and demand has shifted towards US-based organisations. As a result, the percentage of revenues Cyprotex receives from the US grew from 24% in 2009 to 44% in 2011. The strong growth of our toxicology and US business has necessitated a near doubling of our laboratory capacity in Watertown, Massachusetts, which was completed in January 2012.
We believe Cyprotex has now repositioned itself as a scientific thought leader in the ADME 'Tox' field. Cyprotex has demonstrated that we are able to rapidly commercialise cutting edge technologies that answer the most pressing needs of the pharmaceutical, agrichemical and cosmetic industries. These technologies are aimed at significantly improving the odds of developing safer, more efficacious drugs and other commercial chemicals faster and with considerations of specific needs to special populations. In 2010, we expanded into the nascent in vitro toxicology market. In 2011, we launched a novel genomic ADME (gADME(TM) ) service, opening a totally new market of interpreting genetic variation in drug metabolism. We also continue to develop new and innovative assays to match our customer's needs.
Our continued investment in the business during a period when the market has been weak and many of our competitors have been suffering has been a crucial strategic move. European and North American ADME Tox companies have been under increasing competition from Asia for the most common assays. Cyprotex's scientific innovation has allowed us to move into new markets where Asian competition is weak or non-existent, and where growth prospects are better. In doing so, this has provided a halo effect for our existing high-throughput ADME assays, enabling us to grow this business as well by selling these services to clients won on the basis of our newer, more scientifically advanced offerings.
Operational Performance
-- Increasing diversification of customer base gives resilience to revenues
-- Proprietary test offerings play well with pharmaceutical customers where pressures on R&D costs favour "fail early/fail cheaply" approaches
Market conditions have been gradually improving as the US works its way out of the current recession. While conditions are not as favourable as they were prior to the recession, we have begun to see signs of recovery.
We have strived to increase and diversify our customer base, shifting the business away from being dominated by a handful of overly large customers. Our current revenue exposure from any single customer is now down to 13%, versus 16% in 2010, 22% in 2009, and 34% in 2008. We have also expanded into new markets such as agrochemicals, cosmetics and supporting academic and charitable organisations. We believe this diversification has enabled Cyprotex to weather the economic downturn better than some of our competitors.
We are now experiencing a sea change in the drug discovery market. Larger pharmaceutical companies are cutting back sharply on in-house R&D. In some cases this is leading to wholesale site and programme closures. At the beginning of 2011, our second largest customer at the time closed three sites which caused a setback in our revenues. However, our strong growth rate has enabled us to fill the gap left by these closures in the first half of the year and by year-end, we were in-line with the market's expectations for total annual revenues.
Whilst the changes taking place in the pharmaceutical industry have some highly visible negative effects, it also produces positive opportunities for Cyprotex. R&D work that previously would have been performed in house is now being increasingly outsourced, as pharmaceutical companies have become reluctant to invest in R&D infrastructure. The trend towards outsourcing is both direct, through outsourcing of internal R&D programmes to Contract Research Organisations such as Cyprotex, and indirect, as drug discovery is increasingly shifting to smaller companies who are more likely to outsource than larger companies are.
As pressure on R&D costs mounts, pharmaceutical companies are increasingly turning to outsourcing as a solution and this increases the value of Cyprotex's services, by reducing cost and risk. Similarly, the increasing complexity of preclinical research entail equally sophisticated assays that require specialist equipment which is infrequently needed, or are proprietary, such as Cyprotex's gADME(TM) and CellCiphr(TM) assays. Such proprietary preclinical tests are gaining importance as the industry strives to limit the impact of drug discovery attrition with "fail early/fail cheaply" approaches gaining traction. Such newer complex assays are helping us gain business from customers that have historically been committed to in-sourcing. We believe that our scientific expertise and understanding of what our clients need, is helping us to gain traction in all areas of our business.
Financial Performance
Despite the reduction in revenue from our then second largest customer early into 2011, our underlying strong growth rate has enabled Cyprotex to increase revenues by 33.6% to GBP7.91 million, and to record a fourth consecutive year of profitability, positive cash flows from operations and with operating profits of GBP0.67 million (2010: GBP0.22 million).
The balance sheet remains strong with net assets up GBP1.1 million at GBP6.8 million (2010: GBP5.7 million) with the increase principally due to profitable trading.
The Group has invested over GBP0.58 million in R&D (2010:GBP0.56 million) including GBP172,500 in further developing CellCiphr(TM) technologies specifically targeted at improved automation of the predictive engine which has substantially reduced turnaround times allowing the Group to service much larger volumes. Revenues associated with CellCiphr(TM) technologies have contributed over GBP1.0 million to turnover which compares very favourably with last year at GBP0.1 million.
The Group continues to invest in equipment spending GBP0.31 million in the year (2011: GBP0.64 million) including adding a Xevo mass spectrometer to its analytical capabilities. Further investments are planned in 2012.
When non-cash items and acquisition costs are deducted, the underlying EBITDA recorded for the year was GBP1.31 million, up from GBP0.77 million in the previous year. This is a key indicator of the Group's ability to generate cash from operations. The Group's cash position at 31 December 2011 was GBP1.13 million (2010: GBP1.04 million)
Following an expansion of our sales team to manage the increased demand we are seeing, our headcount now stands at 70.
Outlook and Summary
After two years of investment to enhance and expand our services and geographic footprint, our objective for 2012 is to leverage the competitive advantages we have created. Cyprotex has now established itself as a thought leader in the ADME Tox field, with a strong position in the fast-growing in vitro toxicology market with laboratories in both the UK and US, both of which have had major expansions to accommodate increased demand.
In late 2011 we completed a recruiting effort to bring our sales team up to full strength. We have created a robust platform to focus our strategic emphasis towards revenue and profit growth whilst continuing to develop new and innovative offerings for our rapidly expanding customer base. With our enhanced strategic advantages and the continued easing of the recession, we believe that Cyprotex is poised for further strong growth.
