| Message from the CEO.
The third quarter was marked by change, development and above all a lot of new
opportunities that we are extremely happy about. In addition to the mobile
service Go Diabetes, we are particularly pleased with the acquisition of the
jDome® technology that proved to be very popular and well liked. We have since
the acquisition in late September seen a fantastic fast growth in sales in the
jDome segment, and interest from potential buyers and users since then has been
far beyond expectations.
Through the acquisition of the company behind the jDome technology, we not only
got smart, nice, dedicated and driven people but also broadened our IP and
product portfolio in new sought after areas that are important in Brighter’s
vision of a data-driven healthcare. Big data is hotter than ever and we at
Brighter see great opportunities to streamline and improve the care, treatment
and development through analysis and re-use of the personal data that our
products collect.
Brighter stronger focus on online healthcare and data analysis contributes to
the company's products, jDome and now Actiste after the name change from
Brighter One, creating greater value on multiple levels. Partly due to that the
user's direct care can be improved by specific adjustments, but also because it
can contribute to new insights for researchers and developers. At the same time,
the entire continuum of care becomes more efficient through easy access to
continuous data and automatic mobile contact with patients.
In October, we entered into a partnership with Ericsson, which is an important
and historic milestone for the company. The cooperation brings Brighter closer
than ever to becoming a key player in the global market for mobile healthcare
and connected care units. Through the partnership with Ericsson and local mobile
network operators The Benefit Loop gets all the necessary components for
incorporating Brighter's vision of a globally connected healthcare chain, where
the patient is in focus.
We continue to develop Actiste rapidly and simultaneously take advantage of the
opportunities jDome contributes continuously. Looking ahead, one of our main
objectives is to find launch partners in various parts of the world, currently
our and Ericsson's focus is in Asia, in order to carry out a broad global
commercialization of our products and services through The Benefit Loop.
Finally, I want to personally thank our shareholders who accompany us on this
amazing journey to the future of healthcare. We have received many new owners
during the past quarter, from various parts of the world, and we will work hard
to create value for both old and new owners.
Truls Sjöstedt
CEO Brighter AB (publ).
| Investments.
The Company's investments consist mainly of capitalization of development
expenses - both external and internal - and patents. During the period January
to September 2015 the Company resumed capitalization of development expenses
associated with the development of Actiste and the Benefit Loop. During the
period investments amounted to MSEK 9.4 (11.2).
Capitalized expenses for research and development, equipment and tools,
installations on third party property at the end of the period amounted to MSEK
14.5. This mainly refers to the development of Actiste and the Benefit Loop.
2015-09-18 Brighter contracted with the main shareholders of Division By Zero AB
to acquire more than 90% of the shares in Division By Zero. 2015-10-08 the
registration of the non-cash issue regarding this acquisition was completed,
resulting in an increased number of issued shares to 35,380,431. The value of
the acquisition, calculated on the average price 2015-09-18, and given that the
Brighter by its offer to the minority shareholders, gains control of 100% of the
shares in Division by Zero, now Brighter Two AB, would be about MSEK 7.7, the
total number of issued shares amounts to 2,615,279. Brighter has filed for
registration of received minority shareholders shares, corresponding to
approximately 9% of the shares in Brighter Two AB, meaning Brighter will have
control over more than 99% of the shares. There remain a small number of shares
that Brighter intends to gain control over shortly.
| Risks.
Risks relating to the operation are described in the Annual Report for the
fiscal year 2014 and also in the offering memorandum (http://brighter.se/wp
-content/uploads/2015/04/Brighter-Emissionsmemorandum-2015.pdf) from April 2015
(Swedish only).
| Financial position.
Cash on September 30 2015 amounted to approx. MSEK 5.4 (8.5).
The Company’s equity amounted to MSEK 19.8 (26.6), affected by the rights issue
in April 2015 and the loss reported for 2014.
In April and May 2015 the Company executed two unit issues, which brought an
additional MSEK 19.3 in capital before deduction of issuing expenses. The
Company took a loan of MSEK 3 during the issuing period, which was then repaid
from the raised funds.
In November 2015 1,945,141 shares from the warrant programs Series 2011/2014 and
series 2013/2016 where subscribed and paid for, which strengthens Brighter cash
by MSEK 5.4 as of 2015-11-30.
| Cash flow.
Cash flow from operations during the period January to September 2015 amounted
to approx. SEK -5.6 (-4.3), from investment activities to approx. MSEK -9,0 (
-11,2) and from financing activities to approx. MSEK +16.3 (+24.1).
The Company’s operating expenses consist mainly of rent, personnel expenses and
other administrative expenses. The Company’s investments during the period
consisted of mainly research & development and IP. Financing was exclusively
acquired by the issuance of new shares in the two unit issues in April & May
2015.
| Financial performance.
Net turnover for January to September 2015 was approx. SEK 0.0, unchanged from
the previous year.
Operating income for the period was approx. MSEK -6.4 MSEK (-5.8).
The Company did not capitalize any costs during January. This due to the Board
of Directors’ decision to abort the launch of Brighter One. Capitalization was
resumed from February when the development of Actiste and the Benefit Loop was
up to speed.
