Unaudited Interim Results
for the six months ended 30 September 2023
Induction (AIM: INHC), a leading digital health platform driving transformation of healthcare systems, announces its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 September 2023.
Financial Highlights
-- Revenues of GBP6.1m (H1 2022: GBP7.1m). New NHS patient portal contracts (revenue to be recognized in second half of this financial year) compensates for decline in NHS video conferencing usage.
-- Gross margin improvement to 75% (H1 2022: 66.1%). Improved management of direct cost base including cloud infrastructure.
-- Adjusted EBITDA of GBP0.01m (H1 2022: Loss GBP1.0m) Breakeven after non-cash adjustments.
-- Operating loss reduced to GBP2.4m (H1 2022: (GBP4.5m)). Ongoing cost containment programme continues to yield results.
-- Cash position GBP3.1m (FY23 YE: GBP4.3m). We remain on track towards our objective of self-sustaining growth and cash flow breakeven in FY24.
Operational Highlights
-- Awarded five new patient portal development contracts totaling GBP1.9m with several large Trusts/ICS and ICBs for the Zesty patient portal. In addition to the GBP1.4m announced in October, a further GBP538,000 is announced today:
o Whittington Health NHS Trust worth GBP267,000 covering several patient portal projects including the use of Induction's Form Builder module for wait list validation, enhancing appointment management functionality, and integrating with Whittington's pre-surgical assessment tool.
o Milton Keynes University Hospital worth GBP271,000 covering several patient portal projects related to reducing wait lists and launching an Induction video consultation from the patient portal.
-- Induction to be the first NHS-accredited portal to digitize maternity records for expectant mothers ensuring patient records are accessible within Zesty.
-- Completed roll out of NHS App integration with 6 new customers. 2.5 million patients can now access Zesty via the NHS App, up from 1 million patients at the beginning of April 2023.
-- One of only two patient portal providers to launch new functionality into the NHS App related to notifications, messages, and forms. This functionality is vital to supporting waitlist validation.
-- In final stages of engineering work which will enable patients to launch video consultation from within the patient portal, as well as enable clinicians to access a video consultation from their Electronic Medical Record (EMR) - integration of Zesty and Attend Anywhere platforms.
-- Non-core asset (Switch) sold for material consideration.
Paul Tambeau, CEO of Induction Healthcare, said: "With reports that over 8m patients will be on a waiting list by next year, Induction has a vital role to play in helping NHS Trusts manage their backlog and giving patients more choice in how they access care. We're well positioned to do this because of the work we've done on integrating our platforms and enhancing the features available through the NHS App. Improvement in both gross margin and operating losses also demonstrates the outcome of our cost containment work completed in the last 9 months which remains on track to achieve our goal of being breakeven this year."

CEO Review
Overview
Over the last six months, we have been focused on implementing our FY24 plan that was based on four goals:
1. To be a profitable and sustainable growing business to deliver our commitments to shareholders.
2. To successfully develop our Integrated Product. 3. To be customer centric and commercial in everything we do.
4. To implement and continuously develop an inclusive, performance driven and rewarding employee experience.
I am pleased to say that we are making strong progress on all four of these goals.
Through greater cost management, we are on track towards our objective of self-sustaining growth and cash flow breakeven in 2024. In addition to completing the cost containment measures started in Q4 FY23, an important driver has been better management of our cloud infrastructure. Our cloud costs are down c.50% compared to this time last year. In July 2023 we completed a major overhaul of our database infrastructure and are currently completing a significant change to our call screen which will generate further savings as well as improve user experience. There are additional projects we're evaluating to drive further savings in our cloud infrastructure.
In terms of sales growth, we have capitalised on the funding provided by the NHS to support Trusts to adopt or enhance their patient portal. We've been successful in securing GBP1.9m in new contracts which will fund key items on our integrated product roadmap, such as:
-- Digitizing maternity records for expectant mothers, as well as making diagnostic appointment details available from within the patient portal.
-- Enabling a patient to launch a video consultation from within the patient portal - integrating Attend Anywhere and Zesty.
-- Enhancing our appointment management functionality so that it can be used to support Patient Initiated Follow Up / and Clinician Initiated Follow Up initiatives.
-- Using our Form Builder module to support waitlist validation.
-- Deeping our integration with EMR partners such as Oracle Cerner, as well as other third-party systems.
Whilst the large majority of these new contracts are one time revenue, the enhanced platform will result in new features and case studies to support future sales.
We have made tangible progress in integrating our product, notably being able to launch a video consultation from within the patient portal. We expect this work to be completed in early Q4 FY24 and already have 3 customers contracted to adopt this functionality. We're also near completion of work to enable a clinician or staff member to launch a video consultation within their EMR.
We also continue to work closely with the NHS Wayfinder team in integrating new features into the NHS App. We are one of only two patient portal providers to launch new functionality into the NHS App related to notifications, messages, and forms. This functionality is vital to supporting waitlist validation. We've also completed roll out of NHS App integration with 6 new customers; 2.5 million patients can now access Zesty via the NHS App, up from 1 million patients at the beginning of April.
Consistent with our previously announced focus on our key strategic assets, we sold the Switch platform for a material consideration. We continue to look for a strategic buyer for the Guidance platform.
Financial Overview
We ended the first half of this year with GBP6.1m in recognised revenue, down from GBP7.1m over the same period last year. This decrease primarily reflects some Attend Anywhere contracts churning in England as well as lower than expected utilisation in Wales. This is offset by a 20% increase in Zesty revenue over the previous corresponding period. As we look to the full year, we note that most of the new NHS contracts will be recognised in the second half of the fiscal year, meaning a higher overall contribution from Zesty to revenue.
Gross margin in H1 improved to 75% compared to 66.1% in the same period last year. This demonstrates the improved management of direct cost base including cloud infrastructure.
Our operating loss was reduced in H1 to -GBP2.4m, an improvement from -GBP4.5m compared with the same period last year. This reflects that the ongoing cost containment programme continues to yield results. On an adjusted EBITDA position, we ended H1 at GBP0.01m compared to a loss of GBP1m over the same period last year.
From a cash perspective, we ended H1 with GBP3.1m, down from GBP4.3m at the end of FY23. The timing difference of the impact of post year end termination costs and delay in receipt of invoiced revenue accounts for this drop at the half year.
Outlook
With reports that over 8m patients will be on a waiting list by next year, we have a vital role to play in helping NHS Trusts manage their backlog and give patients more choice in how they access care. We're well positioned to do this because of the work we've completed on integrating our platforms and enhancing the features available through the NHS App. The NHS continues to prioritize further developments within the NHS App, enabling Induction to become more embedded in the health ecosystem. We're already seeing early evidence of the effectiveness of Induction's digital tools in supporting waitlist validation which positions us well for future growth.
We continue to see headwinds with Attend Anywhere renewals due to downward pressure on pricing, Trusts returning to more in-person appointments, and a post-Covid decline in the perceived advantages of video appointments.
We're also seeing increasing demand for integrating the capabilities of both our Zesty and Attend Anywhere platforms, creating a better experience for clinicians and patients.
Given the rightsizing changes we have already implemented, and the growth opportunities in front of us, we are increasingly confident about Induction's future as a leading player in the interface between the patient and their secondary care clinical teams.

Earnings per share
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent (after adjusting for interest on the convertible preference shares) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares.
The following table reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted EPS calculations:
