***********************************************
Notes to Editors:
Bioquell is a UK-headquartered, international technology company
(www.bioquell.com) which sells specialist biological contamination
control products and services into the Healthcare, Life Sciences
and Defence sectors, with most of its revenues generated from
overseas customers.
-- Bioquell's bio-contamination control technology is largely
based around hydrogen peroxide vapour (HPV) - which is highly
efficacious at eradicating micro-organisms such as bacteria and
viruses at room temperature - and is subsequently broken down at
the end of the bio-decontamination process using specialist
catalysts to water vapour and oxygen (hence an extremely 'green'
technology).
-- For the last several years Bioquell has invested substantial
sums in developing new products - comprising rental, service and
consumables - which have been designed to increase the proportion
of the Group's recurring revenues rather than those derived from
sales of capital equipment.
-- Bioquell's bio-contamination control technology:
Ø is used by bio-pharmaceutical, biotechnology and research
institutions to provide sterile equipment and/or sterile
facilities;
Ø eradicates "superbugs" from hospitals including Clostridium
difficile and carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) -
sometimes referred to as carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae
(CRE). Independent scientific research from a team at Johns
Hopkins, one of America's top hospitals, has demonstrated that
'bioquelling' hospital equipment and facilities resulted in a 64%
reduction in the rate of hospital acquired infection;
Ø provides tailor-made single patient rooms to hospitals via its
Pod product. Currently many hospitals around the world only have
open, multi-bed ward structures which have been linked to high
rates of hospital acquired infection. The Pod provides hospitals
with a rapid and cost effective way of providing single patient
rooms on open units; and
Ø is sold by wholly owned Bioquell subsidiaries in the USA,
France, Ireland, Singapore and China.
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
The disposal of the Group's subsidiary, TRaC Global Limited
("TRaC"), for GBP44.5 million in cash (pre-expenses) completed on 7
May, 2015. Accordingly, unless otherwise indicated, the information
below relates to the Group's continuing activities, namely those in
its Bio division.
GROUP FINANCIAL RESULTS
In the six months ended 30 June 2015, Group revenues increased
2% to GBP12.5 million (2014: GBP12.3 million).
Service-related revenues decreased 5% to GBP5.7 million (2014:
GBP6.0 million), reflecting a decline in Room Bio-Decontamination
Service ("RBDS") revenues in the period in part due to a greater
number of large emergency RBDS contracts in the first half of
2014.
Gross margin in the period was up 3% in the first half to 42%
(2013: 39%).
Total overhead costs amounted to GBP5.2 million (2014: GBP6.3
million), including costs of GBP0.7 million relating to Research
& Development ("R&D") (2014: GBP1.3 million).
EBITDA (Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and
amortisation) were GBP1.4 million (2014: GBP0.5 million). Operating
profit was GBP0.1 million (2014: loss of GBP1.6 million).
Group pre-tax profit, which included the exceptional profit of
GBP34 million arising on the disposal of TRaC, was GBP35.1 million
(2014: loss of GBP0.1 million).
Basic earnings per share from continuing operations were 0.2
pence (2014: loss of 3.3 pence). Group basic earnings per share
were 82.5p (2014: loss 0.3 pence), reflecting the disposal of
TRaC.
In the first half, purchases of tangible fixed assets totalled
GBP0.5 million (2014: GBP0.5 million). Depreciation in the period
was GBP0.8 million (2014: GBP1.4 million).
Capitalised expenditure on product development was flat at
GBP0.5 million (2014: GBP0.5 million).
Product development and expenditure on R&D
The investment in product development and the expenditure on
ongoing engineering costs comprises an amount capitalised and an
amount charged to the income statement. The tables below provide
further information on the accounting for expenditure on
R&D:

Balance sheet
Following the completion of the disposal of TRaC we have an
extremely strong balance sheet with net assets of GBP64.7 million
(2014: GBP31.8 million) and net cash of GBP47.7 million (2014:
GBP1.5 million) at the period end.
The Board has announced its intention to return the majority of
the cash proceeds arising from the disposal of TRaC to shareholders
but this distribution has been deferred pending the outcome of the
Strategic Review announced on 18 May, 2015.
TRADING ACTIVITIES
Life Sciences
Life Sciences orders in the period increased by 3% over prior
year as our new products start to gain traction in the market. In
particular, the QUBE order book was up 50% to GBP1 million at the
end of June. However, as we had expected, Life Sciences revenues in
the period declined on a year-on-year basis to GBP8.2 million
(2014: GBP9.8 million). This 16% decline in revenues reflects a
number of different factors including the phasing of deliveries
from our order book as well as the decline in revenues associated
with our older hydrogen peroxide vapour ("HPV") equipment .
The QUBE comprises a novel, modular aseptic work-station which
incorporates Bioquell's HPV technology and is manufactured using
plastics technology which we developed previously as part of a US
military contract. Demand for our QUBE product continues to grow
from a broad range of customers around the world. Although the QUBE
is currently primarily sold into sterility test and hospital
pharmacy applications, we are also beginning to sell the product
into biotech research and low volume biotech manufacturing
applications.
RBDS - our unique room bio-decontamination service business -
declined slightly in the period although we believe that there are
a number of new applications for this specialist service arising in
biotech applications. We are in the process of increasing our
marketing of this service to capture such applications.
Our Life Sciences revenues in the important US market increased
in the period. The changes we made to our US business a year ago
are starting to be reflected favourably in the financial results of
the business. In contrast, we continue to find the Life Sciences
market in China much slower compared with a couple of years ago and
we are currently examining new ways of generating revenues and
profits in China.
Revenues from our higher margin consumable products continue to
grow. Our consumables range currently comprises hydrogen peroxide
cartridges as well as biological and chemical indicators used to
help customers obtain and maintain regulatory approvals.
Healthcare
(MORE TO FOLLOW) Dow Jones Newswires
August 26, 2015 02:00 ET (06:00 GMT)
Revenues from our healthcare business increased 22% in the first
half to GBP2.1 million (2014: GBP1.7 million).
The US showed strong growth and now accounts for approximately
half of our Healthcare revenues worldwide. There are a number of
factors driving demand for our HPV technology in the USA including
increased awareness following micro-biological contamination linked
to the treatment of Ebola patients in US hospitals last year as
well as increasing concerns about hospital acquired infection,
including CRE and C.difficile which are both 'superbugs' causing
particular concern to hospitals in the USA.
Our HPV technology was used in the first half to help bring the
widely reported MERS-CoV outbreak in South Korea under control. The
combination of Ebola and MERS-CoV has highlighted the threats posed
by viruses to public health organisations around the world.
Our new Healthcare product - the BQ-50 - was launched in May and
the order book is beginning to grow. This product incorporates a
number of new technologies which make the product easier to use
which results in much faster eradication of drug-resistant
pathogens in hospitals and we believe will result in increased
demand from the healthcare sector. The BQ-50 also enables us to
provide a lower cost, more flexible bio-decontamination service
offering to hospitals in the USA and Europe.
Sales of our Pod product - which comprises fast-to-deploy,
bespoke single patient rooms for use in open-plan, multi-bed
critical care units - were slower than we were expecting in the
first half. We have made a number of changes to the way in which we
promote this product which we anticipate will help drive growth in
our Healthcare revenues in the second half.
Defence
Defence revenues were strong in the first half at GBP2.2 million
(2014: GBP0.8 million).
We continue to see demand for our specialist Chemical,
Biological, Radiological and Nuclear ("CBRN") filtration equipment
from a number of customers around the world, but particularly in
the Middle East.
We have developed a flexible range of modular CBRN products
which enable us to provide cost effective CBRN solutions to
international vehicle and fixed installation manufacturers.
OUTLOOK AND PROSPECTS
The Strategic Review announced in May is ongoing and we are in
the process of considering a number of different pathways
forward.
The changes we have made to the Bio-division's product range,
cost base and management teams are starting to impact favourably on
our financial results.
The underlying demand for our products and services around the
world is strong and increasing. The US biotech market is currently
well funded and growing which is helping our Life Sciences business
in the USA. Around the world hospitals and public health bodies are
increasingly worried by the clinical threat and attendant financial
consequences of antibiotic resistance, hospital acquired infection
and the rapid spread of viruses such as MERS-CoV and Ebola. In
addition, the geo-political stresses within the Middle East and
elsewhere mean that interest in our CBRN defence products remains
robust.
Overall the Group is on track to meet the Board's expectations
for the full year.

Supplementary notes
1. The financial information for the six months ended 30 June
2015 and the comparative figures for the six months ended 30 June
2014 have not been reviewed or audited by the Group's auditors and
have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies adopted
by the Group under IFRS. The same accounting policies and methods
of computation are followed in the interim financial report as were
published by the Company on 15 April 2015 in its annual financial
statements, which are available on the Company's website at
www.bioquellplc.com.

2. The comparative figures for the twelve months to 31 December
2014 have been prepared under IFRS. They do not constitute
statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the
Companies Act 2006. The unqualified audited accounts for the twelve
months ended 31 December 2014 have been filed with the Registrar of
Companies and they did not contain a statement under section 498(2)
or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
3. The tax charge shown on the income statement represents a
combined corporation tax charge and deferred tax credit. The charge
is based on the Group's anticipated effective tax rate for the full
year.
4. Earnings/(loss) per share for the half year have been
calculated on the profit/(loss) on ordinary activities on
continuing operations after taxation and the total earnings
attributable to the owners of the parent divided by the weighted
average number of ordinary shares in issue during the period. The
Group's diluted earnings per share are calculated by including
dilutive share options in the denominator.
5. There have been no related party transactions during the
first six months of the financial year that have materially
affected the financial position or performance of the Group during
that period and there have been no changes in the related party
transactions described in the last Annual Report that could do
so.
6. Copies of this statement will be available to members of the
public at the Company's registered office: 52 Royce Close, West
Portway, Andover, Hampshire SP10 3TS and on the Group's website at
www.bioquellplc.com.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The Board believes that the principal risks and uncertainties
facing the Group have not changed materially from those described
in the 2014 Annual Report, including the summary of risks and
uncertainties set out on pages 10 to 12 therein. The Group provides
complex equipment and specialist services to a large number of
clients in the UK and internationally. Accordingly the Group is
subject to a broad range of strategic, operational and financial
risks and uncertainties, including the following principal
risks:
-- Regulatory Risk
The Group operates in a number of countries and sectors which
are highly regulated. There is a risk that the relevant authorities
or their interpretation could be changed and such change could
significantly adversely affect the Group's business in that country
or sector
-- Technological Risk
The Group is dependent on its technology, and on its products
and services, continuing to be efficacious, cost effective and
attractive to the marketplace. There is the risk that new
technologies, products or services are developed by competitors
which perform better, are easier to use or are more cost effective
than those of the Group
-- Uncertain adoption rate of new products or services
The Group is constantly developing new products and services.
There is inherent uncertainty as to how quickly new products or
services will be adopted by the market.
Going concern
The Group has sufficient financial resources to cover budgeted
future cash flows, together with contracts with a number of
customers and suppliers across different geographic areas and
industries. As a consequence, the Directors believe that the Group
is well placed to manage its business risks successfully despite
the current uncertain economic outlook. The Directors confirm that
they have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate
financial resources to continue to trade for the foreseeable
future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in
preparing the financial statements.
Responsibility statement
We confirm that to the best of our knowledge: (i) the condensed
set of financial statements has been prepared in accordance with
IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting; (ii) the financial statements
give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial
position and profit of the undertakings included in the
consolidation as a whole as required by DTR 4.2.4R; (iii) the
Interim Management Report includes a fair review of the information
required by DTR 4.2.7R (indication of important events during the
first six months and a description of principal risks and
uncertainties for the remaining six months of the year); and (iv)
the interim management report includes a fair review of the
information required by DTR 4.2.8R (disclosure of related parties'
transactions and changes therein).

Notes to the interim results
1. Geographical analysis
Revenue and profit before taxation in respect of continuing
operations arise from the principal activity of the Group.
Following the disposal of TRaC Global Ltd on 7 May 2015 this
represents a single class of business, being the provision of
bio-decontamination control technologies to the international
healthcare, life sciences and defence markets.
The Group's bio-decontamination equipment is manufactured within
the UK and sold into the UK, Europe and Rest of World markets.
The following table provides an analysis of the Group's sales by
geographical market, irrespective of the origination of the goods
or services.
