("Itaconix" or the "Company")
Half year results for the period ended 30 June 2023
Itaconix (LSE: ITX) (OTCQB: ITXXF), a leading innovator in sustainable plant-based polymers used to decarbonise everyday consumer products, is pleased to announce its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2023.
A copy of the Interim Report & Accounts is available for download on Itaconix's website at www.itaconix.com.
John R. Shaw, CEO of Itaconix, commented:
" Recurring and new orders from our expanding customer base generated our fifth consecutive year of record first- half revenues. With this commercial progress, we are leveraging our proprietary technology platform to achieve key milestones towards our goal of becoming a large, profitable specialty ingredient company.
With higher revenues, higher gross profits, and continued control over operating expenses, our Adjusted EBITDA(1) improved to the lowest loss in the last five six-month periods.
With our proprietary technology platform, established production capabilities, and successful fundraise in February 2023, we have entered a new era of development with immediate and long-term prospects for expansive growth . Our current products and customer project pipeline are expected to allow us to pursue much larger revenues. The Company is on course to deliver full year 2023 results in line with expectations. Importantly, our plant-based solutions for sustainable consumer needs are also continuing to make a notable contribution to the development and success of the Low-Carbon Economy."
Financial Highlights
-- First half revenues of $4.0 million were 32% higher than the first half of 2022, 59% higher than the second half of 2022.
-- Gross profits were $1.1 million, representing an increase of 49% over the first half of 2022 and an increase of 56% over the second half of 2022.
-- Gross profit margin was 28% compared to 25% for the first half of 2022. Gross profit margin on Performance Ingredients was 34% compared to 29% for the first half of 2022. This improvement in gross profit margin was due to selective price increases, stable raw material costs, lower transportation costs, more favorable USD exchange rates, a more favorable blend of product and account revenues, and higher volumes.
-- Adjusted EBITDA(1) was a loss of $0.4 million, compared to a loss of $0.6 million for the first half of 2022 and a loss of $0.8 million for the second half of 2022, including continued investment spending on major new revenue opportunities.
-- In February 2023, the Company completed an equity raise with net proceeds of $11.5 million for working capital, select capital spending, and continued investment in new revenue opportunities for the Company's next chapter of growth.
-- Cash and Cash Equivalents as at 30 June 2023 was $10.9 million, compared to $0.6 million as at 31 December 2022.
Company Milestones:
-- Cleaning revenues were $3.7 million for the first half of 2023 compared to $2.7 million in the first half of 2022, reflecting market gains for non-phosphate detergents using Itaconix(R) TSI(TM) 322. Continued growth is expected in North America and Europe as current customers gain market share, new customers go into full production with new formulations, and additional customers emerge in the second half of 2023 from the current pipeline of new cleaning projects.
-- Combined hygiene and beauty revenues were unchanged at $0.4 million for the first half of 2023. Initial successes with new direct accounts are expected to generate higher revenue growth in the second half of 2023 and into 2024.
-- Polymer research and process development on the Company's plant-based superabsorbents have succeeded in achieving absorption performance that is closer to the incumbent acrylate superabsorbent polymers. These breakthroughs are milestones towards the Company's goal of introducing a more competitive product with broader market appeal in late 2024 or 2025.
-- The Company completed its first capital expenditure investment from the most recent fundraise with the purchase and installation of a new laboratory reactor for small scale-up production of its BIO*Asterix plant-based intermediates. Continued development through 2023 is expected to allow the marketing and sale of research quantities in the first half of 2024.
-- Dr. Peter Nieuwenhuizen, who joined as an Independent Non-Executive Director and Interim Chair in July 2022, was appointed as Non-Executive Chair in January 2023.
-- Paul LeBlanc was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director and Chair of the Audit Committee in January 2023. He brings decades of financial and operating experience as CFO of Bemis Associates, Inc., a global manufacturer of specialty films and adhesives for the industrial and apparel markets.
-- Itaconix received the Frost & Sullivan 2022 North American Enabling Technology Leadership Award in the bio-based polymer industry, announced in March 2023.
-- The Company appointed Canaccord Genuity Limited as Joint Broker in April 2023.
The Company also announces that its Nominated Adviser and Joint Broker, finnCap Ltd, has now changed its name to Cavendish Capital Markets Ltd following completion of its own corporate merger.
(1) Adjusted EBITDA is defined and reconciled to Operating loss in Note 4 of the Interim Report.

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION NO. 596/2014 AS IT FORMS PART OF UK DOMESTIC LAW BY VIRTUE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018 ("MAR"). UPON THE PUBLICATION OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT, THIS INSIDE INFORMATION IS NOW CONSIDERED TO BE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN.
Chief Executive's Statement
With record revenues and new funding, Itaconix has entered a new era of development toward our long-term goal of becoming a large, highly profitable, capital-efficient specialty ingredient company.
More brands are turning to Itaconix's plant-based ingredients for new generations of consumer products that are safer and more sustainable without compromising on performance or cost. We intend to expand our base of recurring revenues to reach profitability by continuing to grow current accounts and adding new accounts from our $30 million customer project pipeline.
Our $11.5 million fundraise in February 2023 provides us with the funds needed to achieve our profitability goal and advance our long-term goal of at least $100 million in annual revenues. We are focused in the near term on increasing revenues from our current customers and converting our $30 million customer project pipeline into new revenues from new customers. We are also initiating new efforts on higher-volume applications to capture more share of the current $2.3 billion addressable market for the Itaconix technology platform. As detailed below, we have begun to use the proceeds of our fundraise to expand our staffing, to invest in new laboratory equipment, and to accelerate the introduction of new products and applications within the Company's VELAFRESH(R) hygiene and BIO*Asterix(R) intermediates businesses.
We are applying nature to create a Low-Carbon Economy by using itaconic acid to produce key ingredients for safer and more sustainable everyday products with better performance and value. Itaconic acid is a material produced in nature that can replace synthetic chemistries such as acrylic acid and styrene when made into a polymer. The Itaconix technology platform currently has 16 families of patents and patent applications that protect processes, compositions, or uses for polymers of itaconic acid.
We are continuing to research and protect new polymers and new applications that can expand the current $2.3 billion addressable market for our ingredients within the $20 billion potential for our technology platform. The success of our development processes was recognised in March 2023 when Itaconix announced receipt of the Frost & Sullivan Enabling 2022 North American Technology Leadership Award in the bio-based polymer industry. Each year Frost & Sullivan presents these awards to companies that have developed pioneering technology that not only enhances current products, but also enables the development of new products and applications. The awards also recognize the high market acceptance potential of recipients' technologies.
Financial Results
First half revenues of $4.0 million were 32% higher than the first half of 2022 and 59% higher than the second half of 2022. In addition, they are 71% of the full year revenues for 2022. Revenue growth came from increased demand from current customers, new recurring orders from new 2022 customers, and initial orders from new 2023 customers. The Company is in a strong position to deliver 2023 revenues in line with current expectations and is making major progress towards building the customer base to meet expectations for revenues in 2024.
Gross profits were $1.1 million, representing an increase of 49% over the first half of 2022.
Gross profit margin improved to 28.1% compared to 26.6% for the full year of 2022, which remains below our long-term gross profit margin target of 35%. The Company succeeded with price increases to pass on higher raw material prices, experienced some easing in transportation costs, and benefited with more favorable exchange rates for the US dollar. The Company expects continued improvements to gross margins in the second half of 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) was a loss of $0.4 million, compared to a loss of $0.6 million for the first half of 2022 and a loss of $0.8 million for the second half of 2022. As noted above, the Company continues to make judicious investments in the research and development for new products and applications that are adding new addressable markets and major new revenue opportunities.
Loss for the period was $0.7 million, compared to a loss of $1.1 million in the first half of 2022 and a loss of $1.3 million in the second half of 2022.
In February 2023, the Company completed an equity raise with net proceeds of $11.5 million to fund working capital and support continued growth.
Cash and Cash Equivalents as at 30 June 2023 were $10.9 million, compared to $0.6 million as at 31 December 2022.
Commercial Progress
The Company is leading the introduction of new generations of products in major consumer care applications, particularly within the 360 million households across Europe and North America. As brands and retailers face increased pressure from consumers to act on climate change, Itaconix's plant-based ingredients have the functional value to decarbonise everyday products with performance, safety, cost, and sustainability.
Used as key ingredients in over 150 consumer brands, Itaconix products are found in cleaning, hygiene, and beauty products in major retailers across North America and Europe. With new products continuing to emerge from its technology platform and over $30 million in new revenue potential currently in its customer project pipeline, the Company expects sustained high growth in new and recurring orders.
Cleaning
Cleaning revenues were $3.7 million for the first half of 2023 compared to $2.7 million in the first half of 2022. A new generation of non-phosphate dishwashing detergents based on the multifunctional value of Itaconix(R) TSI(TM) 322 is capturing market share in North America and gaining more traction in Europe. Itaconix(R) TSI(TM) 322 is the key ingredient in this new generation of detergents for managing water hardness and assuring shiny, spotless glasses and dishes. When formulated correctly into a detergent, our plant-based polymer provides these detergents with excellent shine performance, lower overall cost, and industry-leading bio-based content.
The Company offers formulation solutions to transition brands quickly and effectively to formulations that realise the full functional value of its proprietary ingredients, including performance testing and reliable supply of other key ingredients. The Company generated $1.1 million in revenues in the first half of 2023 from providing these solutions, up from $0.6 million for the first half of 2022.
The Company currently generates new demand from major detergent producers in North America and Europe through direct selling efforts and from smaller detergent customers through an expanding network of distributors.
Hygiene
Hygiene revenues from direct sales of VELAFRESH(R) products and through Croda for ZINADOR(R) products were $0.1 million for the first half of 2023 compared to $0.2 million in the first half of 2022. Although overall revenues declined, the Company is encouraged by new traction generated through its selling efforts, particularly in pet care and household cleaning.
The Company continues to see significant revenue opportunities for its plant-based superabsorbent. Early commercial work indicated a need for higher absorption capacity to compete more effectively with current acrylate incumbents. Polymer research and process development initiated after the February 2023 fundraise has generated desired performance improvements. These breakthroughs are expected to allow the Company to introduce a more competitive product with broader market appeal in late 2024 or 2025.
Beauty
Beauty revenues from direct sales of VELASOFT(R) products and through Nouryon for its Amaze(R) SP product were $0.1 million for the first half of 2023 compared to $0.1 million in the first half of 2022.
The Company is continuing development of new haircare ingredients based on a new patent filing in April 2022.
BIO*Asterix
BIO*Asterix products did not generate any revenues in the first half of 2023, similar to the first half of 2022. The Company continues to see large revenue opportunities for Itaconix products that are sold to specialty chemical producers to use as intermediates or components in their ingredients. The Company completed its first major capital investment from the most recent fundraise with the purchase and installation of a new laboratory reactor for small scale-up production of its BIO*Asterix plant-based intermediates. Continued development through 2023 is expected to allow the marketing and sale of research quantities in the first half of 2024.
Operational Review
We met all customer orders in the first half of 2023 and have the capacity and capabilities in place to meet expected customer needs through 2023 and into 2024. We are building our finished goods inventories in North America and Europe to ensure we meet these needs. We are also planning some investment in production upgrades and modifications to improve process efficiencies and production rates to meet future customer needs at our current facility.
The cost and delivery times for the raw materials used in our production processes have stabilized. We expect this stability to transition into some easing in material and transportation costs over the next six months.
We are selectively expanding our staffing to meet the demands of current and future revenue development and growth. New hires were made in research and development, quality control, production, and customer support following the most recent fundraise. We plan to expand our revenue generating capabilities by adding marketing and sales staff.
Governance
Dr. Peter Nieuwenhuizen, who joined as an Independent Non-Executive Director and Interim Chair in July 2022, was appointed as Non-Executive Chair in January 2023.
Paul LeBlanc was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director and Chair of the Audit Committee in January 2023. He brings decades of financial and operating experience as CFO of Bemis Associates, Inc., a global manufacturer of specialty films and adhesives for the industrial and apparel markets.
Effective 22 August 2023, the Company completed the 50:1 share consolidation approved by shareholders in June 2023.
Current Trading and Outlook
The Company's base of recurring revenues continues to grow and generate record levels of revenues. With the cash resources in place to support this growth and introduce further new Itaconix plant-based ingredients, Itaconix is firmly in a new stage of progress towards reaching its near-term targets and setting its sights on bigger and broader opportunities for its technology platform.
We are focused on more consumer brands using our current ingredients and on entering higher-volume applications within our current $2.3 billion addressable market. Key measures of success for us through 2024 are the number of new brands we add and the number of new products that we introduce in new applications.
The Company remains on course to deliver full year 2023 results in line with expectations.
