Predictive Oncology Reports First Quarter 2020 Financial Results, Provides Business Update

CancerQuest 2020 Study on Schedule for Completion in Q2 2020

NEW YORK, June 08, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI), a knowledge-driven company focused on applying artificial intelligence (“AI”) to personalized medicine and drug discovery, today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and provided a business update.

Financial and Business Highlights

“We remain steadfast in our approach to assembling a portfolio of assets that leverages our unique collection of cancer tumors to develop and market AI-based, predictive models for personalized cancer treatments that improve patient outcomes,” commented Dr. Carl Schwartz, Predictive Oncology CEO. “Our collection of more than 150,000 cancer tumors, amassed and curated over a 10-year period, gives us a strong competitive advantage as we are the only company that can perform a ‘reach back’ to examine actual outcomes over an extended period of time. In collaboration with UPMC, we are on schedule to conclude an initial study of the application of artificial intelligence for treatment of ovarian cancer patients during the second quarter. We believe this critical research will provide us with a representative sample that successfully demonstrates the value of our tumor database, validates our processes and enables the next step in our path to commercialization.”

“The pending acquisitions of several innovative biotechnology companies provides further encouragement, as we believe this consolidation will further enhance the breadth of our capabilities by leveraging high quality formulations and stable protein and peptide-based solutions for the rapid manufacture of vaccines and other drug therapies,” added Dr. Schwartz.

Dr. Schwartz concluded, “We improved our liquidity position and streamlined our capital structure with the conversion of a $2.1 million convertible note, previously held by me, to newly issued equity. This action demonstrates my confidence in the commercial viability of our work, and when combined with the additional capital we raised through an equity offering, provides us with the cash runway to fund key clinical, regulatory and operational milestones for the next several quarters. In addition, we have significantly reduced the corporate structure of our Skyline Medical business to enable it to operate independently as we consider strategic alternatives for this business.”

First Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Revenues were $295,943 compared with $255,241 for the first quarter of 2019. Revenues in both years were primarily driven through the sale of Predictive Oncology’s proprietary STREAMWAY units, of which 5 units and 7 units were sold, respectively, in each of the first three months of 2020 and 2019. Gross margins remained strong at 69% in the first quarter of 2020 compared with 71% in the 2019 period. The slight decrease was due to Helomics' costs surpassing the revenue earned. However, exclusive of Helomics, gross profit margin related to the Skyline Medical business in the first quarter of 2020 increased to 77%.

Net loss was $4.5 million compared with $3.3 million for the first quarter of 2019. General & administrative expenses rose 89% to $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of additional costs related to the Helomics business. Operational expenses increased to $548,753, compared with $466,566 in the first quarter of 2019. Selling expenses decreased to $264,409 compared with $554,216 in the first quarter of 2019.

Outlook

Management continues to focus its resources on the Helomics and TumorGenesis divisions and the Company’s primary mission of applying artificial intelligence to precision medicine, drug discovery and the mediums used to replace rats and mice in preliminary cancer studies. Management reaffirms that it is focusing the majority of its resources on maximizing opportunities within the Company’s precision medicine business.

About Predictive Oncology Inc.

Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI) operates through three segments (Domestic, International and other), which contain four subsidiaries; Helomics, TumorGenesis, Skyline Medical and Skyline Europe. Helomics applies artificial intelligence to its rich data gathered from patient tumors to both personalize cancer therapies for patients and drive the development of new targeted therapies in collaborations with pharmaceutical companies. Helomics’ CLIA-certified lab provides clinical testing that assists oncologists in individualizing patient treatment decisions, by providing an evidence-based roadmap for therapy. In addition to its proprietary precision oncology platform, Helomics offers boutique CRO services that leverage its TruTumor™, patient-derived tumor models coupled to a wide range of multi-omics assays (genomics, proteomics and biochemical), and an AI-powered proprietary bioinformatics platform to provide a tailored solution to its clients’ specific needs. Predictive Oncology’s TumorGenesis subsidiary is developing a new rapid approach to growing tumors in the laboratory, which essentially “fools” cancer cells into thinking they are still growing inside a patient. Its proprietary Oncology Discovery Technology Platform kits will assist researchers and clinicians to identify which cancer cells bind to specific biomarkers. Once the biomarkers are identified they can be used in TumorGenesis’ Oncology Capture Technology Platforms which isolate and help categorize an individual patient’s heterogeneous tumor samples to enable the development of patient specific treatment options. Helomics and TumorGenesis are focused on ovarian cancer. Predictive Oncology’s Skyline Medical division markets its patented and FDA cleared STREAMWAY System, which automates the collection, measurement and disposal of waste fluid, including blood, irrigation fluid and others, within a medical facility, through both domestic and international divisions. The company has achieved sales in five of the seven continents through both direct sales and distributor partners. For more information, please visit www.Predictive-Oncology.com.
