TIDMIRSH 
 
 

Mainstay Medical International plc ("Mainstay" or the "Company", Euronext Paris: MSTY.PA and Euronext Dublin: MSTY.IE), a medical device company focused on commercializing ReActiv8®, an implantable restorative neurostimulation system designed to treat an underlying cause of disabling Chronic Low Back Pain, today announces the publication of its results for the Half Year ended 30 June 2018 and provides a company update.

Jason Hannon, CEO of Mainstay, said: "The recent period has seen us make significant progress across the business. We announced completion of all implants in the ReActiv8-B study and remain on track to have full data towards the end of 2018. This is a significant step as we continue to build momentum in our efforts to bring ReActiv8 to patients in the U.S.

"We are dedicated to making rapid progress in Germany, our first commercial market. Starting in March of this year we refined our commercial strategy, repositioned our sales team, focused the training of our new and existing sales team members, and increased our communication to potential implanting physicians. We also appointed a new Managing Director with responsibility for growing the commercial business in Germany, building relationships with key implanting physicians, and growing our team with experienced sales people who are capable of rapidly expanding ReActiv8 in the market. In recent months we have seen encouraging signs that these initiatives are working. Importantly, we remain on track to meet our target of having 10 or more physician partners performing multiple implants by the end of this year. We believe this momentum will set us up for more meaningful commercial expansion in 2019 as more customers begin to adopt and get comfortable with selecting the appropriate patients for the therapy."

Business Update

 
 
    -- During the first half of 2018, significant further progress was made 

in Mainstay's pivotal IDE clinical study, ReActiv8-B, which is

intended to gather data in support of a pre-market approval (PMA)

application to the FDA, a key step towards the commercialization of

ReActiv8 in the U.S. Completion of all implants was announced at the

start of the third quarter of 2018. A total of 204 patients were

implanted in the study, reflecting the strength of interest in study

participation. The completion of implants in the clinical study means

the Company remains on track to announce full data towards the end of

2018.

 
    -- In Germany, Mainstay's initial European market, the commercial team 

was repositioned in order to better focus efforts on key physician

targets. Commercialization efforts in line with this strategy began in

earnest in March 2018, post our financing announced in February 2018,

and are gaining traction. The rates of implants and new implanting

sites have increased sharply in July and August 2018 as compared to

the first six months of the year.

 
    -- Wolfgang Frisch was appointed VP and Managing Director for Germany on 

20 June 2018. Mr. Frisch has over 30 years' experience in the medical

technology industry and will be instrumental in continuing to drive

the commercial strategy forward, with a focus on adoption in a select

number of high volume spine care centers.

 
    -- Matthew Onaitis was appointed Chief Financial Officer, effective 20 

August 2018, bringing with him more than 20 years of experience

working with dynamic healthcare businesses and deep knowledge of

financing innovative growth companies like Mainstay.

Financial Update

 
 
    -- On 15 February 2018, the Company announced the completion of a EUR30.1 

million financing (approximately $37.5 million) through a placement of

2,151,332 new ordinary shares to new and existing shareholders. The

funds are being used to complete the ReActiv8-B clinical study,

advance the initial commercialization of ReActiv8 in Germany and other

markets and invest in early commercial activities in preparation for

launch in the U.S.

 
    -- Revenue during the six-month period ending 30 June 2018 was $0.4 

million ($0.3 million in 1H17).

 
    -- Operating expenses were $15.8 million ($12.3 million in 1H17). This 

increase was driven primarily by costs relating to the ReActiv8-B

study and associated with commercialization efforts.

 
    -- Cash on hand at 30 June 2018 was $29.7 million (31 December 2017: $10 

million).

About Mainstay

Mainstay is a medical device company focused on commercializing an innovative implantable restorative neurostimulation system, ReActiv8®, for people with disabling Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP). The Company is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. It has subsidiaries operating in Ireland, the United States, Australia, Germany and the Netherlands, and is listed on the regulated market of Euronext Paris (MSTY.PA) and the ESM of Euronext Dublin (MSTY.IE).

About Chronic Low Back Pain

One of the recognized root causes of CLBP is impaired control by the nervous system of the muscles that dynamically stabilize the spine in the low back, and an unstable spine can lead to back pain. ReActiv8 is designed to electrically stimulate the nerves responsible for contracting these muscles and thereby help to restore muscle control and improve dynamic spine stability, allowing the body to recover from CLBP.

People with CLBP usually have a greatly reduced quality of life and score significantly higher on scales for pain, disability, depression, anxiety and sleep disorders. Their pain and disability can persist despite the best available medical treatments, and only a small percentage of cases result from an identified pathological condition or anatomical defect that may be correctable with spine surgery. Their ability to work or be productive is seriously affected by the condition and the resulting days lost from work, disability benefits and health resource utilization put a significant burden on individuals, families, communities, industry and governments.

Further information can be found at www.mainstay-medical.com

CAUTION - in the United States, ReActiv8 is limited by federal law to investigational use only.

Mainstay Medical International plcInterim Management Report

The Board of Directors is pleased to report on the progress of Mainstay Medical International plc (Mainstay or the Company) and present the Half Year Report for the half year ended 30 June 2018 of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group or we).

Principal activities

Mainstay is a medical device company focused on commercializing ReActiv8®, an implantable restorative neurostimulation system designed to treat an underlying cause of disabling Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP). ReActiv8 is designed to electrically stimulate the nerves responsible for contracting a muscle which stabilizes the lumbar spine. Activation of this muscle to restore functional stability has been shown to facilitate recovery from CLBP. Mainstay received CE Marking for ReActiv8 based on positive results from the ReActiv8-A Clinical Trial which demonstrated a statistically significant and lasting improvement in pain, disability and quality of life in people with disabling CLBP.

The Company is incorporated in Ireland as a public limited company. The Company's ordinary shares are listed on the ESM of Euronext Dublin and Euronext Paris.

As at 30 June 2018, the Company and its operating subsidiaries Mainstay Medical Limited, MML US, Inc., Mainstay Medical (Australia) Pty Limited, Mainstay Medical Distribution Limited, Mainstay Medical B.V. and Mainstay Medical GmbH form the Mainstay Medical Group.

Business review

ReActiv8-B Clinical Trial -The ReActiv8-B Clinical Trial (the Trial) is an international, multi-center, prospective, randomized, sham-controlled, triple blinded trial with one-way crossover, conducted under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The Trial is intended to gather data in support of an application for pre-market approval (PMA) from the FDA, a key step towards the commercialization of ReActiv8 in the US. Information about the trial can be found at https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/study/NCT02577354.

The primary efficacy endpoint of the Trial is a comparison of responder rates between the treatment and control arms. The Trial will be considered a success if there is a statistically significant difference in responder rates between the treatment and control arms. The Trial, if successful, will provide Level 1 Evidence of efficacy of ReActiv8, which may be used to support applications for reimbursement in the US. Data from the Trial will also be used to support market development activities worldwide.

In December 2017, the independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) completed the pre-planned interim analysis of the Trial, which was based on data from the first 58 patients in the pivotal cohort to complete the primary endpoint. The DMC recommended continuation of the Trial with a definitive size of 168 evaluable patients. The DMC also reported that they had observed no safety concerns in the Trial.

During the first half of 2018, significant further progress was made to advance the Trial. In July 2018, we announced completion of all implants in the Trial. Because of enrollment momentum at our clinical sites at the time of and following the interim review of the data, and reflecting the strength of interest in the Trial, a total of 204 patients were implanted. The completion of implants in the Trial means the Company remains on track to announce full data towards the end of 2018.

Commercialization - In Germany, Mainstay's initial European market, the commercial team was repositioned in order to better focus efforts on key physician targets. Commercialization efforts in line with this strategy began in earnest in March 2018, post our financing announced in February 2018, and are gaining traction. Our strategy is to focus on adoption in a select number of high volume spine care centres. The rates of implants and new implanting sites have increased sharply in July and August 2018 as compared to the first six months of the year.

We have continued to add to our investment in commercial infrastructure to expand commercialization in Europe, and in preparation to enter other markets in the future. We will also increase our investment in the training of physicians; the education of referring physicians regarding the potential of ReActiv8; and the collection and dissemination of clinical data regarding use of ReActiv8.

Funding - On 15 February 2018, we announced the completion of a EUR30.1 million financing (approximately $37.5 million) through a placement of 2,151,332 new ordinary shares to new and existing shareholders. On 4 May 2018, we announced the publication of a prospectus (the Prospectus) in connection with the Placement. The funds are being used to complete the ReActiv8-B Clinical Trial, advance the initial commercialization of ReActiv8 in Germany and other markets and invest in early commercial activities in preparation for launch in the US. The Prospectus comprises a Summary Document, a Securities Note and a Registration Document. These documents are available on our website (www.mainstay-medical.com).

ReActiv8-A Post Market Clinical Follow up (PMCF) Study - The ReActiv8-A Clinical Trial was an international, multi-center, prospective, single arm clinical trial of ReActiv8 that formed the basis of our CE mark for ReActiv8.

Following CE marking approval, a range of activities is required for post market clinical follow up to gather additional data on the long-term performance and safety of ReActiv8. The ReActiv8-A PMCF Study is a continuation of the ReActiv8-A Clinical Trial (but using CE Marked ReActiv8). All subjects enrolled in the ReActiv8-A Clinical Trial in Belgium and the UK are being converted to the ReActiv8-A PMCF Study. Physicians commenced with these implants in late 2017, and the full 40 implants are expected to be completed by the end of 2018.

ReActiv8-C Registry - In addition to the ReActiv8-A PMCF Study, the Company is maintaining the ReActiv8-C Registry, an international, multi-centre data collection registry. All centres that use the product commercially are invited to participate in the Registry program. All patients who are implanted with ReActiv8 at the centres participating in the Registry will be invited to enrol in the Registry until the target enrolment numbers have been reached. The purpose of the Registry is to gather additional summary data on long term performance of ReActiv8 in at least 50 patients.

Financial review

Income Statement - Revenue during the six-month period ending 30 June 2018 was $0.36 million ($0.25 million during the same period in 2017). Revenue was generated from sales of ReActiv8 systems to customers in Germany and Ireland.

Operating expenses related to on-going activities were $15.8 million during the half year ended 30 June 2018 (same period in 2017: $12.3 million). On-going activities during the financial year included research and development, clinical and regulatory activities, selling, general and administrative activities.

Research and development expenses were $2 million during the six-month period ended 30 June 2018, which is consistent with expenditure of $2 million during the same period in 2017. Expenditure during the 2018 period included the salaries of engineers, technicians, and quality and regulatory specialists; the cost of outsourced development and manufacturing activities; biocompatibility and pre-clinical studies; and quality costs including the maintenance of our quality system.

Clinical and regulatory expenses were $7.2 million during the six-month period ended 30 June 2018 and increased by $2 million from $5.2 million during the same period in 2017. This is primarily driven by increased direct trial costs, consulting, training and travel costs relating to activities for the Trial, which has sites in the U.S., Australia and Europe.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $6.6 million during the six-month period ended 30 June 2018, and $5.1 million during the same period in 2017. The increase of $1.5 million is primarily driven by commercialization and the related increase in our direct sales force (impacting recruitment fees, payroll, travel and training costs), as well as marketing, reimbursement consulting and market research costs. This increase is also impacted by a non-cash expense for share options granted. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to increase in future years, as we increase our direct sales team to drive activities to promote growth.

Statement of financial position - Total assets of the Group at 30 June 2018 were $33.6 million (31 December 2017: $13.3 million). Cash on hand at 30 June 2018 was $29.7 million (31 December 2017: $10 million). Cash used in operating activities was $14.8 million during the period (30 June 2017: $11.4 million) and is reflective of our increased operating expenses.

The Group's debt facility provided by IPF Partners was entered into on 24 August 2015 for up to $15 million. The Group had drawn down $4.5 million on 9 September 2015, $6 million on 3 December 2015 and $4.5 million on 28 July 2016. During 2018, the Group made principal repayments of $1.5 million.

Since inception the Group has funded its operations primarily through the issuance of equity securities and debt funding. The Group continues to explore funding strategies (e.g., equity, debt, partnering) to support its activities into the future, including the possibility of a listing on NASDAQ or other US stock exchange and a related public or other offer of securities.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The principal risks and uncertainties faced by the Group and/or its industry for the remaining six months of 2018 remain substantially unchanged from the risks disclosed in the Prospectus, which is available on our website.

A summary of the principal risks relating to the Company and/or its industry include the following:

 
 
    -- We have incurred significant operating losses and may not be able to 

achieve or subsequently maintain profitability.

 
    -- We expect to require additional funds in the future in order to meet 

our capital and expenditure needs and further financing may not be

available when required or, if available, could require us to agree to

terms which are specifically favourable to new investors, or to

restrictions significantly limiting our access to additional capital.

 
    -- Our future financial performance is entirely dependent on the 

commercial success of ReActiv8, our only product as of the date of

this Report, obtaining adequate reimbursement for ReActiv8, and rates

of product adoption and market penetration.

 
    -- Failure to comply with debt covenants or failure to make repayments on 

our debt facility could have a material adverse effect.

 
    -- We operate in a highly regulated environment and regulatory approval 

is required before we can market or sell ReActiv8 in any market.

 
    -- Seeking and obtaining regulatory approval for medical devices can be a 

long and uncertain process. Strict or changing regulatory regimes,

government policies and legislation in any of our target markets may

delay, prohibit or reduce potential sales.

 
    -- We are required to conduct clinical trials for regulatory approvals 

and other purposes. Clinical trials carry substantial risks and are

costly and time consuming, with uncertain results.

 
    -- Any inability to fully protect and exploit our intellectual property 

may adversely impact our financial condition, business, prospects and

results of operations.

A more extensive description of the existing and future potential risks to Mainstay's business and to the Company's ordinary shares are outlined in the Risk Factors section of the Prospectus, on pages 4 to 25, and should be considered carefully by shareholders and prospective investors.

Outlook and future developments

During the first half of 2018, significant further progress was made in Mainstay's pivotal IDE Clinical Trial, ReActiv8-B, which is intended to gather data in support of a pre-market approval (PMA) application to the FDA, a key step towards the commercialization of ReActiv8 in the US. Completion of all implants was announced at the start of the third quarter of 2018. The completion of implants in the Trial means the Company remains on track to announce full data towards the end of 2018.

If successful, the ReActiv8-B Clinical Trial will yield data in support of an application for pre-market approval (PMA) from the FDA. The data will also comprise Level 1 Evidence of efficacy, which may be used to support applications for favorable reimbursement in the US. Data from the ReActiv8-B Trial will also be used to support market development activities worldwide.

Our refined commercialization strategy and repositioned commercial team is gaining traction. Our strategy is to focus on adoption in a select number of high volume spine care centers to develop key reference sites, and then build on that experience and data from the ReActiv8-B Trial to expand commercialization to additional centers and other countries.

Going concern

The Directors have evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in aggregate, that raise doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issue of the consolidated financial statements. The Directors note the following relevant matters:

 
 
    -- The Group had cash of $29.7 million as at 30 June 2018 ($10 million as 

at 31 December 2017).

 
    -- The Group had operating cash out-flows of $14.8 million for the 6 

months ended 30 June 2018 (year ended 31 December 2017: $24.9 million).

 
    -- Due to the phase of development of the Group, the Group expects to 

continue to incur losses in the medium term due to the ongoing

investment in research and development, clinical and commercial

activities.

 
    -- The Group has an accumulated retained loss reserve of $142.5 million 

and a reorganization reserve of $44.6 million as at 30 June 2018 (31

December 2017: $124.5 million and $44.6 million, respectively).

 
    -- The Group has funded operations to date through the proceeds of equity 

funding of approximately $123.5 million and as at 30 June 2018, debt

with an outstanding principal of $11.7 million.

In the event that additional funding is not secured in the 12 months from the approval of these Financial Statements, the Directors believe that the Group has the ability, based on its currently available cash resources, to consider alternative budgets to manage its cash outflows so as to match those available cash resources, to ensure that the Group will have sufficient funds to be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of the Financial Statements. On that basis the Directors are satisfied that there is no substantial doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and that the Financial Statements should be prepared on a going concern basis.

Auditors

The condensed consolidated Financial Statements have not been reviewed by the Company's auditors.

2Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

The condensed consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the EU. They do not include all the information and disclosures necessary for a complete set of IFRS Financial Statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2017.

The comparative information provided in the condensed consolidated Financial Statements relating to the periods ended 30 June 2017 and 31 December 2017 does not comprise the statutory financial statements of the Group. Those statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 on which the auditors gave an unqualified audit opinion, have been delivered to the Companies Registry Office.

There are no significant or material changes to judgements or estimates used in these condensed consolidated Financial Statements compared with those used in the consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017.

The condensed consolidated Financial Statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors, on 19 September 2018.

Going concern

The Directors have evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in aggregate, that raise doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issue of the consolidated financial statements. The Directors note the following relevant matters:

 
 
    -- The Group had cash of $29.7 million as at 30 June 2018 ($10 million as 

at 31 December 2017).

 
    -- The Group had operating cash out-flows of $14.8 million for the 6 

months ended 30 June 2018 (year ended 31 December 2017: $24.9 million).

 
    -- Due to the phase of development of the Group, the Group expects to 

continue to incur losses in the medium term due to the ongoing

investment in research and development, clinical and commercial

activities.

 
    -- The Group has an accumulated retained loss reserve of $142.5 million 

and a reorganization reserve of $44.6 million as at 30 June 2018 (31

December 2017: $124.5 million and $44.6 million, respectively).

 
    -- The Group has funded operations to date through the proceeds of equity 

funding of approximately $123.5 million and as at 30 June 2018, debt

with an outstanding principal of $11.7 million.

In the event that additional funding is not secured in the 12 months from the approval of these Financial Statements, the Directors believe that the Group has the ability, based on its currently available cash resources, to consider alternative budgets to manage its cash outflows so as to match those available cash resources, to ensure that the Group will have sufficient funds to be able to meet its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of the Financial Statements. On that basis the Directors are satisfied that there is no substantial doubt about the Group's ability to continue as a going concern and that the Financial Statements should be prepared on a going concern basis.

Currency

The condensed consolidated Financial Statements are presented in US Dollars ($), which is the functional and presentational currency of the Company. Balances in the condensed consolidated Financial Statements are rounded to the nearest thousand ($'000) except where otherwise indicated.

Basis of consolidation

The condensed consolidated Financial Statements comprise the consolidated results of Mainstay Medical International plc and its subsidiaries.

Significant accounting policies

With the exception of the newly implemented policies noted below, the condensed consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared applying the accounting policies that were applied in the preparation of the Group's consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS and are available on the Company's website (www.mainstay-medical.com) except as detailed below. These accounting policies have been applied consistently for all periods presented.

The Group has initially adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments from 1 January 2018. The implementation of these standards had no material impact on the Group's reported results.

a)Revenue recognition

The Group has initially adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers from 1 January 2018. Under IFRS 15, revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Group recognises revenue when it transfers control over a product or service to a customer. This may arise on shipment, delivery or in accordance with specific terms and conditions agreed with customers and provided there are no material remaining performance obligations required of the Group.

Revenue is measured at the fair consideration received/receivable for the sale of goods to external customers net of value added tax and discounts. Expected discounts are estimated and provided for as a reduction in revenue based on agreements with customers, agreed promotional arrangements and accumulated experience. Accumulated experience is used to estimate and provide for the discounts, using the expected value method, and revenue is only recognised to the extent that it can be reliably measured and when it is probable that future economic benefits of the transaction will flow to the Group.

Service revenues (relating to training and implant support) are recognized when the related services are rendered. When a customer is invoiced, or cash is received but conditions for recognition of the related revenues have not been met, revenue is deferred until all conditions are met. The Group occasionally sells goods and services as a bundled arrangement. Such sales are unbundled based on the relative fair value of the individual goods and services components and each component is recognized separately in accordance with the Group's recognition policy.

Due to the stage of development of the Group, and the nature of the Group's current activities (the Group has only one product, ReActiv8, and some related accessories and services available for sale), this new standard has not had a material impact on the Group and there has been no restatement of previously reported amounts.

b)Financial Instruments

The change in accounting policy to comply with the requirements of IFRS 9 has had no impact on the amounts disclosed in the financial statements other than immaterial changes to impairment of trade and other receivables as discussed below. The changes in classification of financial assets and liabilities to IFRS 9 classification has had no impact on the accounting for those assets and liabilities.

Classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities

On initial recognition a financial asset is classified as Measured at Amortised Cost, FVOCI or FVTPL. Financial assets are not reclassified after initial recognition unless the related business model changes. A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it is held in a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cashflows and its contractual terms give rise on specific dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal or interest.

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are classified by the Group as amortised cost assets under IFRS 9. These assets are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are classified by the Group as amortised cost assets under IFRS 9. Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits with maturities of three months or less, which are carried at amortised cost.

Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are classified by the Group as other financial liabilities under IFRS 9. These liabilities recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Interest-bearing borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are classified by the Group as other financial liabilities under IFRS 9 and are recognised initially at fair value including any attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest-bearing borrowings are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method over the contractual term.

Trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents were previously classified as loans and receivables under IAS 39. There has been no change in the classification of trade and other payables or interest-bearing borrowings.

Impairment of financial assets

At each reporting date, in accordance with IFRS 9, the Group assesses whether its financial assets, comprising of accounts receivable and cash are impaired. The Group evaluates customer accounts with past-due outstanding balances, and analyses customer credit worthiness, payment patterns and trends. Based upon a review of these accounts and management's analysis and judgement, we estimate the future cash flows expected to be recovered from these receivables. As at 30 June 2018, our trade and other receivables balances amounted to $16,000, and we have not recognized any material impairment losses at this time. The total outstanding balance as at 30 June 2018 was received post period end. Further information on the Group's credit risk is detailed in Note 9. The Company measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses, except for cash which is measured at 12-month expected credit losses. The maximum period considered when estimating expected credit losses is the maximum contractual period of exposure to credit risk.

c)Other new standards and interpretations

In addition, the Group applied the standards listed below for the first time in the current period:

 
 
    -- IFRS 2 (amended) - Share Based Payments (effective 1 January 2018) 
 
    -- Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014 - 2016 Cycle: Amendments to IFRS 1 

First time Adoptionof IFRSs and IAS 28 Investment in Associates

and Joint Ventures (IASB effective date 1 January 2018, not yet

endorsed by the EU)

 
 
    -- Transfers of Investment Property (Amendments to IAS 40) (effective 1 

January 2018)

None of these have had any material impact on the Group's implementation of accounting policies or on its reported results.

3Segment reporting

The results of the Group are reported on a consolidated basis to the Chief Operating Decision Maker of the Group, the Chief Executive Officer. There are no reconciling items between the Group's reported consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and statement of financial position and the results of the AIMDs segment.

The Group has operations in Europe, the US and Australia. The non-current assets held in these jurisdictions are detailed below:

6Taxes

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the relevant taxation authorities. The tax charge has been prepared based on the Group's best estimate of the weighted average tax rate that is expected for the full financial year. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those used in Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, the United States and Australia.

7Interest bearing loans and borrowings

IPF Debt Financing

9Financial instruments

Financial risk management

In terms of financial risks, the Group has exposure to credit and financial risk, liquidity risk and market risk (comprising foreign currency risk and interest rate risk). This note presents information about the Group's exposure to each of the above risks together with the Group's objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing those risks.

Risk management framework

Mainstay's Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework. The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to the limits. Risk management systems and policies will be reviewed regularly as the Group expands its activities and resource base to take account of changing conditions.

The Group has no significant concentrations of financial risk other than concentration of cash with individual banks. The Group is also exposed to credit risk arising on trade receivables, with further information provided under credit risk below. There has been no other significant change during the half year or since the end of the half year to the types or quantum of financial risks faced by the Group or the Group's approach to the management of those risks.

Credit and financial risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet contractual obligations and arises principally from the Group's cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each asset. The carrying value of receivables is a reasonable approximation of fair value.

Trade receivables comprise of amounts due from customers, all of which were current at 30 June 2018 and 31 December 2017. The Company does not have exposure to significantly different categories of customer and accordingly details of credit risk by customer type or jurisdictions is not provided.

There were no material impairment losses recorded in the period and the provision for expected credit losses at 30 June 2018 is also immaterial. The carrying value of trade receivables of $16,000 at 30 June 2018 ($90,000 at 31 December 2017) represents the maximum exposure to credit risk. The Group maintained its cash balances with its principal financial institutions throughout the year, and the Group limits its exposure to any one financial institution by holding cash balances across several financial institutions. The Group's principal financial institutions have investment grade ratings at 30 June 2018. The credit rating status of the Group's principal financial institutions is reviewed by the Audit Committee or the Board annually. The cash balance is reported to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis, and a monthly review of all cash balances held at each institution is carried out by the CFO. The Group maintains most of its cash in USD denominated accounts. The Group held cash and cash equivalents of $29.7 million as at 30 June 2018.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Since inception the Group has funded its operations primarily through the issuance of equity securities and debt funding. The Group continues to explore funding strategies (e.g., equity, debt, partnering) to support its activities into the future, including the possibility of a listing on NASDAQ or other US stock exchange and a related public or other offer of securities. Adequate additional financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. The Group's inability to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on the Group's financial position and its ability to pursue its business strategy.

Foreign currency risk

The Group's reporting currency is the US Dollar. The Group's exposure to foreign currency risk arises through expenditures incurred in Euros, Great British Pounds (GBP) and Australian Dollars.

The Group's Australian subsidiary has an Australian Dollar functional currency and three of the Group's subsidiaries located in Ireland, Germany and the Netherlands have a Euro functional currency. Additionally, GBP expenditure is mainly incurred from the UK based sites relating to the ReActiv8-A Post Market Clinical Follow-Up ("PMCF") Study and U.S. Pivotal ReActiv8-B Clinical Trial.

The Group did not have material asset or liability amounts in foreign currencies at 30 June 2018 other than trade payables and accruals (net of cash) of EUR1.2 million and GBP321,000.

Interest rate risk

The Group's cash balances are maintained in short term access accounts and carry a floating rate of interest. A 50 basis points change in the rate of interest applied to the cash balance held by the Group would not have had a material impact on the Group's statement of profit or loss in the half year ended.

At 30 June 2018, the principal outstanding on MML's loan from IPF was $11,700,000. This loan carries a variable rate of 3-month Euribor plus a margin ranging from 10.5% to 12.5%.

10Share based payments

Share Options

The charge of $1.9 million for the half year ended 30 June 2018 (30 June 2017: $1.3 million) is the grant date fair value of various share options granted in the current and prior years, which are being recognized within the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income over the vesting period related to service. 279,878 options were granted in the six months ended 30 June 2018 (30 June 2017: 30,000 options).
