Biotricity Shows Continued Growth through its Preliminary Year-End Guidance and Provides Calendar Second Quarter Update


REDWOOD CITY, Calif., July 08, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biotricity Inc. (OTCQB: BTCY), a medical diagnostic and consumer healthcare technology company, today provided guidance on its financial results for the year ended March 31, 2020, announcing that it has experienced increases of approximately 260% in gross annual revenues, year over year, and 113% quarter over quarter. This guidance is being provided in advance of filing audited results within its 10-K, which it anticipates filing prior to July 15, 2020.

Biotricity has achieved milestones during its fiscal 2020, including:

  • Increased Market Penetration: Biotricity expanded its customer base and its geographic footprint quarter over quarter by expanding into 6 more states.
  • Increases in its Core Service Revenues: Technology fee revenues have consistently increased over the course of our fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, creating a strong repeatable and growing revenue trajectory.
  • Continuous Innovation: The company has filed for a 510(k) FDA clearance of its next generation software platform, designed to drive operational efficiency and improve monitoring effectiveness for its clinicians. On July 2, 2020, the company communicated with the FDA and, provided there are no COVID-19 related delays, expects a response within the next 30 days.

“We have been impressed by the resilience of our business model, as we continued to show strong growth during the previous quarter, despite the impact of COVID-19,” said John Ayanoglou, Biotricity’s Chief Financial Officer. “We remain enthusiastic about our performance in the U.S. market.

“We are humbled to be able to use our technology to provide support to patients and physicians during this time and look forward to our planned developments and launches for the upcoming year. Our performance and the growth in our business reflect the trust that physicians have in using Bioflux. We intend to continue to invest in our professional sales force and in our R&D pipeline based on our confidence that this trend in growth will continue.”

Calendar Q2 Update

COVID-19 and the significant impact of social distancing and medical clinic closures in places like New York City resulted in a slower April 2020 activity and the first month in which the company saw a reduction in monthly technology fee revenues since launching the full market release of its platform.

Waqaas Al-Siddiq, CEO of Biotricity indicated, “Despite seeing a reduction of only 30% in month over month technology fee revenues during the month of April 2020 as a result of COVID-19, the company’s revenue pipeline came back strong in May to exceed March levels. June 2020 has been a record month in company history, logging the highest revenue activity since we launched our platform.”

Biotricity was able to grow both in terms of revenue and technology during this time, taking substantial strides in its development of future technologies that will allow it to engage patients and their medical advisors in working to diagnose and ensure better monitored patient outcomes. Biotricity is looking forward to finalizing development of several technologies this year, including two additional FDA 510(k) filings for:

  • Biotres, an ECG Holter solution that addresses the limitations of existing solutions in the Holter market, with built-in connectivity, ability to recharge, and 3 channels (instead of 1). Biotres leverages the capabilities of Bioflux while allowing for the traditional approach of short-term monitoring. Biotres is currently undergoing lab testing, the final step before preparing an FDA filing that is planned in the coming months.
     
  • Advanced ECG Analysis Software, with significantly improved analytics that enhance the ability to identify anomalies. Provided we receive FDA clearance once implemented, we believe that the new software will significantly improve human intervention in monitoring, thereby reducing cost and creating a tenfold improvement in analysis time. This enhancement will allow the company to scale faster, handling larger and larger cardiac study volumes while making better use of its valuable human capital resources.
