Posted at 19/1/2005 10:53 by raldo Cytomyx Holdings PLC19 January 2005 For immediate release 19 January 2005 CYTOMYX HOLDINGS PLC ('Cytomyx' or 'the Company') Preliminary results for the year ended 30 September 2004 Cytomyx Holdings plc (AIM: CYX), the leading provider of drug discovery products and services, is pleased to announce its full year results for the year ended 30 September 2004.

For further information, please contact: Cytomyx Holdings plc 01223 508191 Mike Kerins, Chief Executive Buchanan Communications 020 7466 5000 Mark Court/Mary-Jane Johnson The Wall Street Group +1 212 888 4848 Ron Stabiner CYTOMYX HOLDINGS PLC Preliminary Statement for the year ended 30 September 2004 CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT Cytomyx has had an exciting year of growth and consolidation. This has included not only a strengthening of gross profit margins through new high value contracts in the second half of the financial year, but also the acquisition in January 2004 of US-based Clinomics Biosciences Inc ('Clinomics'), a company whose unique capabilities give us the potential for substantial growth in future years. As a result of this acquisition, we have been pleased to welcome Stephen Turner, the Founder and CEO of Clinomics, to our Board. Mr Turner has a distinguished track record in the life science industry and will be a major contributor to the future direction of the group. The acquisition of Clinomics will facilitate a number of plans that we have to strengthen our offering of drug discovery technology solutions on a global basis. During the year, Cytomyx Ltd has greatly accelerated its progress in the development of high value products used in drug discovery. A major effort to develop recombinant cell lines that express ion channel proteins has been highly successful and we are now recognised as the world's leading developer of these systems. These high value products are used to develop new treatments in areas such as pain, epilepsy and heart disease, as well as being widely used to test new drugs for their potential to cause serious cardiac toxicity side effects. These products have shown considerable promise for future revenues. Clinomics has established a very large collection of human tissue samples, spanning most of the major diseases currently being investigated by the pharmaceutical industry. All of the samples in the collection are linked to detailed clinical information from the donor patient and these are used by our clients to discover new genes involved in disease progression. Since January, we have relocated Clinomics to a new facility in Albany, New York, and made rapid strides in expanding its offering of products to the pharmaceutical industry. During the year we were successful in securing a number of major contracts with leading pharmaceutical companies, including AstraZeneca. In addition, we entered into a major new initiative to develop new Cancer Tissue MicroArrays (our core technology) with the prestigious Moffitt Cancer Centre in Florida. We believe that there are many significant synergies between the Clinomics and Cytomyx Ltd businesses and, in order to best exploit these, it is our intention to merge the two companies into a single global business unit early in 2005. While the integration of Clinomics is not yet complete, early indications are that this will be a powerful and accretive acquisition of the Cytomyx group. Cambridge BioScience Ltd continued to perform well, and, after extensive negotiation, we were delighted to announce re-attaining the distribution contract for Molecular Probes following its sale to Invitrogen Corporation. Cambridge BioScience Ltd during the year has also initiated a number of exciting new distribution contracts with innovative US suppliers. Fund raising Interest in the group's key strategic products and services has been strong during the year. We also recognise the need to strengthen our position in the critical US marketplace, which accounts for around 50% of global pharmaceutical R&D expenditure. The acquisition of Clinomics was our first major step towards strengthening our activities in the US. As a result of this acquisition, we have received interest from several US-based investors and in December we agreed to an offer of a $2.5m convertible loan facility from Laurus Funds that will expand available working capital necessary for our increased level of activity in the US. We anticipate continued growth through the group in light of our new US activities. Financial The group grew its revenues by more than 11% to £5,664,252 in 2004 from £5,101,315 in 2003. This growth came from new and acquired activities, some of the growth being temporarily masked by the temporary loss of the Molecular Probes contract and the decision to wind down some low margin activities such as DNA sequencing services. Gross profit has grown to £3,383,859 from £2,560,138 in 2003. Notwithstanding the net loss in the first half which, to a large extent, reflected costs related to the investment in and relocation of Clinomics, our second half provided firm evidence of increasing gross profit margins including the positive impact of the Clinomics' acquisition. Dividend In light of the loss for the year, the early stage nature of the company and the ongoing need for investment to grow the Cytomyx Group, the Board does not recommend the payment of a dividend for the year. Summary The group has continued to focus on developing world class technologies for use in pharmaceutical R&D and we are now seeing strong demand for these key products. The strategically important acquisition of Clinomics puts us in a leading position in a major growth market and provides access to the critical US market. We have also seen strong interest from the US investment community who have taken notice of our increasing focus on business opportunities in North America. We believe 2005 will be a year of significant consolidation, growth and development of our increasingly successful pharmaceutical solutions business.

Statutory accounts for 2003 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies, and those for 2004 will be delivered following the Company's Annual General Meeting. The auditors have reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified and did not contain a statement under section 237(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985. LOSS PER ORDINARY SHARE The diluted loss per share takes into account the dilutive effect of share options. Ordinary shares which are potentially issuable are only included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share if their issue would decrease net profit per share or increase net loss per share. The exercise of share options does not increase the basic loss per share and therefore the basic and diluted loss per share remain the same. The calculation of basic loss per ordinary share is based on a loss of £915,661 (2003 - £414,051) and on 37,878,653 (2003 - 26,103,565) ordinary shares being the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.

Posted at 13/1/2004 09:50 by ozgem Correct.It is down on yesterdays close which is what I considered worst case scenario.I am hoping now this will create more upward pressure on the share price as the squeeze will be on to get some of these and eliminate the large spread that puts some investors off the 1 penny shares. |
Posted at 02/1/2004 14:44 by james t kirk I think a couple of the 1.7p trades may be sells as the bid touched there earlier. In particular the 1mill looks like a sell, which probably forced the bid back down.Smaller investors still buying steadily, we're still moving in a very nice northwards motion. |
Posted at 02/1/2004 10:07 by czar A couple of things are happening here, firstly the enlarged group is expected to start to make serious profits, although i can't find any recent forecasts, and secondly the larger market cap and consolidation out of the penny share level is designed to attract institutional investors. A biotech that can make money and may be on a single figure pe will be extremely attractive. I found it very encouraging that they had no trouble placing 200m shares at 1.25p even though the price was down at 1.1p, you have to assume these people did their research, at least they will know more than us. You don't hear the term "ten bagger" these days but this could just be one, even a five bagger would be great. |
Posted at 29/12/2003 15:59 by robertap ozgem,6.128x10^6 are being taken by institutional and other investors plus 7.6x10^6 for Clinomics purchase. These will be traded as of 13th Jan'y 2004 i.e a potential of nearly 14 million NEW ordinary shares (equivalent to 350 million shares at today's par value) I am therefore as suprised as you by the recent increase. I would have thought there might be a small premium, say 10% but not 30% as it is at the moment My thoughts only. But others may have a different view. DYOR |
Posted at 08/10/2003 17:29 by optimist23 As it is October now and several blocks of stock are changing hands I feel that it is time for a new thread.Again big delayed buy and sells have been pouring in after close. I believe that the price has continue to risen as someone is building a stake here. I think that the stock is not being accumalated on the open market hence the price doesn't seem to fall on the big sells. What is happening is the buyer is gathering stock from institutions etc. Where the big sell is followed with the big buy. IMHO. Not the usual retail investors buying and selling so expecting interesting times ahead for the rest of October as the picture becomes clearer. |
Posted at 08/10/2003 14:51 by optimist23 some pretty large buys which is moving the price. Not many retail investors having a dabble |
Posted at 12/9/2003 09:58 by sandbank The real problem with CYX is lack of newsflow - positive or negative. Whoever's in charge of their PR should be fired. Investors need to know what a company is actually doing - but the web site news section hasn't been updated since March (infact if you link to it from ADVFN you get the Cambridge Biosciences web site instead). Hopeless. |
Posted at 15/8/2003 16:27 by bmont Sitting on the sidelines and warming the bench is never any fun. It seems that after months of uncertainties, recently released data shows that investors are starting to get back into the game. This indicates that investors are becoming more optimistic about the market's performance in the next few months.
