Following a stronger H2 and Abzena’s FY18 results, we have made major changes to our model across both the services business and the Abzena Inside royalty portfolio. The FY18 reported revenues of £22.0m were ahead of our forecast and up c 18% over FY17. This was driven by 60% growth in bio-manufacturing where fortunately, most of the investment in capacity was directed in FY18. Last week’s announcement of a proposed royalty monetisation will help to address the FY19 working capital requirement.
