Regulatory News:
Amplitude Surgical (ISIN: FR0012789667, Ticker: AMPLI, eligible
for PEA-PME plans), leading French player on the surgical
technology market for lower-limb orthopedics, announces the launch
of a strategic review of its Novastep activity specializing in foot
and ankle surgery.
Strategic review of Novastep’s foot and
ankle activities
The Board of Directors, at its meeting of June 28, 2022, issued
a recommendation that a strategic review of the foot and ankle
activity, driven by the Novastep subsidiaries in France and the
United States, be launched with the goal of maximizing the creation
of value and continuing the Amplitude Surgical group’s development.
The review that would be carried out by the Group could eventually
lead to the divestment of this activity. In the coming weeks, the
Group will appoint financial advisors to assist with this
review.
Group prospects
The 2021-22 financial year was significantly affected by the
COVID-19 pandemic. For its 2021-22 financial year to June 30, 2022,
the Group is anticipating sales of approximately €104 to 105
million and an EBITDA margin of around 20%. Novastep should account
for some 17% of the Group’s annual sales.
Assuming that the COVID-19 pandemic does not result in further
impacts restricting the Group’s economic activity on its markets,
and subject to the availability of medical staff in the health
facilities, the Company is anticipating the following:
- a return to the pre-COVID growth trajectory after an initial
upturn in growth in 2021-22, resulting in annual sales of
approximately €129 million in 2022-23 (FY to June 30, 2023);
and
- an EBITDA margin of around 21% in 2022-23 (FY to June 30,
2023).
Next press release
2021-22 full-year sales, on Thursday July 21, 2022, after
market.
