Oslo, 30 August 2024: Thor Medical ASA, a leading emerging supplier of
alpha-emitters for next-generation precision cancer treatment, today announced
results for the first half of 2024. The pilot facilities at Herøya Industrial
Park are progressing as planned and the company has started a concept study for
a 'fast-track' plant with the ambition to bring commercial product volumes to
market as soon as possible.
"Thor Medical has progressed the new pilot facilities at Herøya on time and
cost, and we look forward to supplying our customers in the radiotherapeutics
market with quality product samples towards the end of the year. We see a
significant shift in clinical development toward targeted alpha therapies with
lead-212 and radium-224 isotopes. Our existing and prospective customers are
addressing large groups of cancer patients with a huge unmet therapeutic need
and are outlining a large potential demand for thorium-228, radium-224 and
lead-212 as radioactive compounds. We strongly believe that our technology can
be their foundation and that Thor Medical is able to ramp and scale up
production in close synchronization with our customers' clinical development and
commercial launch activities", says CEO Jasper Kurth.
1H'24 highlights:
* Pilot facilities at Herøya progressing on time and cost with completion
targeted by end of Q3 2024 and delivery of customer samples by the end of the
year?
* Received NOK 6m grant from Innovation Norway related to the pilot facilities?
* Received authorization from the Norwegian Radiation and Nuclear Safety
Authority (DSA) for manufacturing, commercial trade, and import and export of
radionuclides?
* Entered cooperation agreement and MoU for feedstock supply with
Steenkampskraal Monazite Mine in South Africa?
* Completed feasibility study and started concept study for 'fast-track' plant
with estimated capital requirement of approximately NOK 250 million
The radiotherapeutics market is facing a sharp growth trajectory as one of the
fastest-growing cancer treatment options, with thorium-derived radioisotopes
showing the greatest potential.
TThe company had no revenues in the first half of 2024, reflecting the
pre-commercial phase of operation, and a loss before tax of NOK 13.1 million.
Net cash flow in the period was negative NOK 12.1 million, and cash available at
end of the first half 2024 was NOK 29.6 million. The pilot phase is fully funded
with limited capital requirements until investment decision for commercial
production scale and the company has runway through first half 2025.?
