Prenetics Announces First
Quarter 2022 Financial Results After a Successful Listing on the Nasdaq under the Ticker "PRE."
LONDON AND HONG KONG, June 6, 2022 -
Prenetics Global Limited (NASDAQ: PRE) ("Prenetics" or the "Company"), a global leader in genomic and diagnostic
testing, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. The Company recorded strong
operational and financial performance driven by solid diagnostics and genetic testing demand, and is on track to achieve revenue guidance
Danny Yeung, CEO & Co-founder of
Prenetics, said "We are thrilled to be releasing our first financial results as a publicly listed company on the Nasdaq.
While the overall market remains volatile, our focus has always been to deliver. Our results for the first quarter of 2022 provides a
very strong momentum for us. In the coming weeks, we will launch ColoClear, a non-invasive stool DNA test for the screening of colorectal
cancer and also Circle Snapshot, a patented, painless, push-button at-home blood test with laboratory test results delivered digitally.
In addition, we are making significant progress in M&A discussions globally in the area of telehealth and personalized care which
we believe will have significant synergies and provide us the tools needed to build out the World's first end to end health ecosystem."
First Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Total revenues were US$92.0 million, representing
an increase of 60.2% from the same period in 2021 and 42.2% from the previous quarter. This uplift was mainly driven by strong demand
for the Company's diagnostics and genetic testing services, including contract awards for provision of COVID-19 testing services
granted by the Hong Kong government and in the U.K. Prenetics has performed and delivered more than 22 million laboratory and at-home
tests globally as of May 2022.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit increased by US$14.1 million, or 64.3%,
from US$21.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 to US$36.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The
increase in gross profit was primarily due to the increase in revenue outpacing the increase in direct cost.
Gross margin increased from 38.2% for the three
months ended March 31, 2021 to 39.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to improved cost management in
diagnostic testing services.

operations under IFRS before equity-settled share-based payment expenses, depreciation and amortization, other strategic financing, transactional

(Loss)/profit from operations
(Loss)/profit from operations decreased by US$11.5
million, or 105.0%, from profit from operations of US$11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 to loss from operations
of US$0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The loss was primarily due to increase of non-cash share-based payment
associated with an increase in the equity value of the Company.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Profit
Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS) was US$12.7 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared with adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS) US$12.5 million for the same period in 2021. Adjusted
gross profit (non-IFRS)2 was US$36.5 million for the three months ended March 31,
2022, compared with adjusted gross profit (non-IFRS) US$22.1 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was mainly due to increased
operating efficiencies and scalability of the business.
As of March 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents
of US$34.2 million, compared with US$35.3 million as of December 31, 2021.
