“On the heels of successfully commercializing sugarBEAT® in fiscal 2022 and recognizing our first revenue from our UK licensee MySugarWatch Limited, our primary goal in fiscal 2023 is to expand our revenue by supporting the launch effort of MySugarWatch Limited in the UK. We expect additional purchase orders to support the UK launch, as well as the anticipated Duo-Pack launch later in calendar 2022. MySugarWatch Limited has already begun mass advertising through education and awareness campaigns to healthcare professionals and direct to consumers through the national press,” commented Dr. Faz Chowdhury, CEO of Nemaura.

“Furthermore, we are exploring additional new channels in other territories with our technology platform. We have also started to engage with large scale manufacturers to enable us to meet the strong worldwide diabetic monitoring demand, and any appreciable scale we can build in our business should be meaningful to shareholder value. We look forward to updating investors with additional corporate highlights as they unfold,” concluded Dr. Chowdhury.

FY2022 Financial Summary:

  • The fiscal year ended March 31, 2022 marked a pivotal milestone for the Company, as it commenced deliveries of sugarBEAT® to MSWL pursuant to the initial order placed in April 2021
  • Research and development expenses were consistent with the prior year at approximately $1.5 million. The Company’s historically more significant research and development expenses relating to clinical trials and improvements made to the sugarBEAT® device began to flatten out over the 2022 fiscal year
  • General and administrative expenses were $6,173,049 and $3,032,138 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These expenses consisted of fees for legal, professional, consultancy, audit services, investor relations, insurance, advertising, and general and operational wages. The year-over-year increase in expenses were driven predominantly by increased wages, as the Company has increased headcount to support the operational scale-up process across both its UK and U.S. teams
