CANTON, Conn., May 18, 2023 — Kelyniam Global (OTC: KLYG), a leading maker of custom cranial implants, today announced results for its quarter ended March 31, 2023.
“I’m pleased to announce that Kelyniam has expanded our licensing agreement with Bioplate to allow the Company to sell Osteopore products in select markets in the U.S. Kelyniam will have the opportunity to sell these unique, high quality products in high volume hospitals in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland and Florida,” said Ross Bjella, Kelyniam’s CEO. “Osteostrip, Osteoplug, and Osteomesh have unique osteo-integrative properties that solve unmet clinical needs. Adding innovative new products like these is part of our strategy to diversify the Kelyniam product line within the cranio-facial market.”
This agreement expands the current agreement between Bioplate and Kelyniam for the distribution of the Bioplate product line of surgical plates and screws. Osteopore (ASX: OSX) is a global leader in the manufacture of innovative regenerative implants that empower natural tissue regeneration. The company’s patented technology for 3D printing proprietary polymer compounds that support bone regeneration are perfectly suited for U.S. surgeons.
Kelyniam’s revenue dipped slightly in the quarter associated with below-expectations January sales. Sales in February and March rebounded significantly but not sufficiently to overcome the earlier drop measured against prior year’s quarter. Monthly sales can vary over the year and variability can be expected due to normal market conditions, including weather , surgeon availability and patient scheduling. The company believes PEEK implant revenue will return to usual expected growth throughout 2023.
Financial highlights for the year ended March 31, 2023 and the same period in 2022 include:
- Total revenue of $596,455 compared to $ 656,858, a decrease of 9.2%
- Gross Margin of $467,773 compared to $509,201
- Operating loss of $ 67,978 compared to a loss of $5,924
