Trinity Delta Lighthouse: ANGLE

Trinity Delta view: Commercialisation of the Parsortix system is still at an early stage, although momentum is building, and management are continuing to focus on developing the potentially sizeable revenue streams through both ANGLE’s Product and Service offerings. The reality of current market conditions has driven difficult decisions to streamline infrastructure while still enabling investment into developing protocols on third-party molecular systems, and into products and services relevant

Trinity Delta Lighthouse: ANGLE

Trinity Delta view: Recent commercial related activities, with a new pharma services contract, plus an assay development partnership, are encouraging steps towards securing potentially significant future Parsortix revenues. Both provide important external validation of Parsortix, and as this continues to build, future deal execution should be facilitated, in our view. The opportunities being explored are sizeable and will also help to expand near-term revenues. Positive revenue momentum is alrea

ANGLE: Pursuing a multi-faceted Parsortix commercial opportunity

ANGLE successfully navigated a number of regulatory and clinical hurdles during 2022, including breakthrough FDA product clearance for Parsortix, and highly positive ovarian cancer data. Key elements are now largely in place to help deliver on Parsortix’s significant potential within the evolving liquid biopsy field. To realise this, ANGLE is pursuing a multi-pronged strategy to make Parsortix broadly available to industry and patients. The near-term focus is on growing the Pharma services busin

Trinity Delta Lighthouse: ANGLE

Trinity Delta view: Despite significant progress during 2022, including the FDA clearance of Parsortix and the highly positive ovarian cancer data, broader market headwinds dictate a more cautious stance into 2023. These challenging conditions have led to increased focus on cost control at ANGLE’s potential partners and customers, causing delays in commercial uptake. Consequently, revenues are unlikely to accelerate as rapidly as previously anticipated. Regardless of these external factors, ANGL

Trinity Delta Lighthouse: ANGLE

Trinity Delta view: May’s FDA clearance was a major validation of Parsortix’s utility; with numerous further studies endorsing its value as a diagnostic in multiple tumour settings. Management’s challenge is addressing these wide-ranging potential uses in a systematic, effective, and efficient manner. H122 results highlight the strategy to address a variety of distinct diagnostic segments, with both near- and longer-term objectives, is gaining momentum. The recent £18.9m equity raise removes nea

Trinity Delta Lighthouse: ANGLE

Trinity Delta view: The FDA clearance of the Parsortix system in mBC was a major turning point for ANGLE, providing gold standard validation of the unrivalled flexibility, consistency, and clinical insights it provides. The challenge now shifts to maximising industry awareness and capitalising on the multiple clinical opportunities. Management is pursuing a well-articulated strategy addressing a number of distinct diagnostic segments, with both near- and longer-term objectives. This equity raise

Trinity Delta Lighthouse: ANGLE

Trinity Delta view: FDA clearance of the Parsortix system in mBC has been a clear focus for many investors. Achievement of this gold standard validation could transform ANGLE, with a potential near-term acceleration in revenues from the Pharma Service business, in which we see significant value. Longer-term, this could also drive revenues in mBC. We continue to believe ANGLE is well positioned to capitalise on growing recognition of the utility of CTC analysis in investigating protein markers on

Trinity Delta Lighthouse: ANGLE

Trinity Delta view: During 2021 ANGLE laid important foundations ahead of key events that should accelerate commercial prospects. Positive momentum in pharma services contracts and corporate partnerships coupled to new assay and LDT development will contribute to top-line growth. However, potential FDA clearance of the Parsortix system in mBC is a clear focus for many investors and will provide important validation for external partners. ANGLE is well positioned to capitalise on growing recognit
