Biome Australia Managing Director and Founder Blair Vega Norfolk said: "Q2 represents Biome's strongest quarterly financial result to date, with EBITDA of ~$1.0m and record sales revenue of $6.5m. This result reflects the continued execution of our growth strategy across both domestic and international markets. With rolling 12-month revenue now at ~$22m, gross margins consistently above 61%, and eight consecutive quarters of positive EBITDA, the business has established a scalable platform. As revenue continues to grow, we expect an increasing proportion to flow through to earnings and cash generation. Strong cash flow in the quarter allowed us to repay $722k into our working capital facilities while still growing our cash balance, a clear demonstration of the financial discipline underpinning our growth. We remain focused on expanding our international footprint and strengthening our position as Australia's leading practitioner-only probiotic company." For personal use only
