Clinical & Validation
- Studies regarding KidneyIntelX clinical utility and health economics presented in multiple scientific venues:
- American Society of Nephrology Kidney Week 2022
- National Kidney Foundation Spring Clinical Meeting 2023
- American Diabetes Association 83rd Scientific Session in June 2023
- American Association of Nurse Practitioners Annual Meeting in June 2023
- Key takeaways:
- A model that estimated the incremental cost-effectiveness of KidneyIntelX compared to risk stratification using eGFR and UACR, with a lifetime horizon from both a public and private payer perspective, predicted that the average Medicare and commercial patient would experience fewer dialysis starts and kidney transplants while experiencing an increased life span and quality-adjusted life span by using KidneyIntelX compared to the standard of care.
- Deployment and risk stratification by KidneyIntelX was associated with escalation in clinical actions taken to optimize cardio-metabolic-kidney health including medications and referrals.
- KidneyIntelX classified more Black vs. non-Black patients as high risk for progression of diabetic kidney disease, and this was associated with increased prescription of SGLT2-inhibitor drug therapy post-testing, contributing to elimination of racial disparity in SGLT2i usage.
- Data includes studies from Wake Forest real world cohort, Mount Sinai real world cohort, Mount Sinai BioMe Biobank, UPenn Medicine Biobank, the CANVAS clinical trial cohort, and the Veterans Affairs Database
- Publications:
- Real-world evidence in Journal of Primary Care and Community Health in which KidneyIntelX resulted in a 4.5-fold increase in new drug prescriptions (for SGLT2 inhibitors) for high-risk compared to low-risk patients; early evidence suggested that the introduction of SGLT2i contributed to an observed reduction in HbA1c levels most notably in high-risk patients, and a more than a
20% change in dose or type of antihypertensive therapeutic prescriptions in high vs. low-risk patients - Patient case studies in the journal Diabetic Nephropathy demonstrated how KidneyIntelX can optimize clinical management in early-stage kidney disease across multiple physician specialties
- New validation data for KidneyIntelX.dkd, the FDA approved version of KidneyIntelX, in the journal Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism. Using data from two independent cohorts and a clinical trial population, it was demonstrated that the updated KidneyIntelX test significantly enhanced risk stratification for progressive decline in kidney function, independent from known risk factors for progression.
- Real-world evidence in Journal of Primary Care and Community Health in which KidneyIntelX resulted in a 4.5-fold increase in new drug prescriptions (for SGLT2 inhibitors) for high-risk compared to low-risk patients; early evidence suggested that the introduction of SGLT2i contributed to an observed reduction in HbA1c levels most notably in high-risk patients, and a more than a

Chairman & CEO’s Joint Statement
This has been a highly productive year for Renalytix. We have crossed major thresholds in reimbursement, outcomes and utility data and received FDA De Novo marketing authorization for KidneyIntelX.dkd. Our progress was furthered amplified by inclusion of KidneyIntelX in the draft of the leading kidney clinical guidelines, KDIGO, for 2023. It is rare to see all of these milestones pass in a short period of time and we believe they are significant for broader adoption and clinical acceptance of KidneyIntelX testing for risk assessment of patients with type 2 diabetes and early-stage kidney disease in the United States and abroad.
Kidney disease remains one of the costliest and most widespread unmet medical needs of our time. In the United States alone, there are approximately 14 million adults with diabetic kidney disease, which is the intended use population authorized by FDA for KidneyIntelX.dkd. Our goal is to make the benefits of early prognosis from KidneyIntelX technology accessible to as many of these individuals as possible at an early stage when the benefits of treatment strategies and new drug therapies have the greatest chance of success, before the disease irreversibly damages the kidneys.
Importantly, post FDA authorization, we have reviewed our operating cost basis with a view to meaningfully reduce our quarterly cash burn rate. This reduction in cash burn should become apparent in the remainder of our 2024 fiscal year and is being undertaken without compromising our sales and marketing efforts focused on growing testing volume and revenue. These reductions are on top of our recent year over year operating expense reduction of
KidneyIntelX.dkd is now the only prognostic in vitro diagnostic test for assessment of chronic kidney disease progression with FDA authorization, with claims reimbursed by a broad array of insurance companies including Blue Cross Blue Shield groups, Medicare, and Medicaid, and real-world evidence demonstrating improved outcomes in both diabetes and kidney health in the short-term.
Repeated publication of both outcomes and utility data underpin successful diagnostic launches and the establishment of new standards of care. At Renalytix, we have invested heavily in and emphasized real-world evidence since we began full operations in late 2018. We were excited to present KidneyIntelX outcomes data that has exceeded our expectations by showing that use of KidneyIntelX was associated with clinical actions that in less than 12 months led to observed changes in the core measure for diabetes health, as measured by A1C reductions, and kidney health, as measured by eGFR slope improvement. We expect more data from our real-world evidence studies over coming months.
Raising funds to fuel these clear commercial opportunities is essential, particularly now that we have reduced risks associated with a successful service product launch and adoption. Toward that end, to maximize our flexibility to fund the business growth, we plan to file an S-3 shelf registration statement to give us the ability to source capital at the right time. We will continue to explore less dilutive and non-dilutive capital funding sources, particularly now that we have a unique product proposition post-FDA authorization.
On behalf of everyone at Renalytix, we would like to thank you for your continued support.
About Renalytix
At Renalytix, we are introducing more accurate prognosis and effective care management for the estimated 850 million people worldwide with chronic kidney disease. In the United States alone, chronic kidney disease affects about 37 million people and is responsible for one of the largest cost drivers in the national medical system. Early identification, prognosis and treatment beginning with primary care is essential if we are to stem the growing social cost and suffering associated with kidney disease.
With our lead product, KidneyIntelX, the goal is to drive the focus from kidney disease treatment to kidney health management through a more accurate understanding of a patient’s risk for kidney failure before it happens. KidneyIntelX leads development in the new field of bioprognosis, a biology driven approach to risk assessment that integrates information from a simple blood draw and a patient’s health record to produce an accurate picture of kidney health. A doctor can use KidneyIntelX results to act on patients at high risk of kidney disease progression or failure at an early stage where active management and therapeutics have the best opportunity to impact outcomes and cost before it is too late.
KidneyIntelX™
Our novel platform, KidneyIntelX, uses a machine-learning enabled algorithm to process predictive blood biomarkers with key features from a patient’s health record to generate an early and accurate kidney health risk score. The score identifies those patients at the most risk for kidney disease progression and/or failure and further guides ongoing clinical decisions.
KidneyIntelX is initially indicated for use with adults who have diagnosed kidney disease and type 2 diabetes – diabetic kidney disease or DKD. Future KidneyIntelX products in development intend to expand the indicated uses to include broader chronic kidney disease, health equity strategies and kidney health monitoring through treatment. Diabetes is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease, representing nearly
KidneyIntelX was designed as an expandable platform able to add indicated uses and a monitoring capability, all within CLIA and FDA regulated insurance reimbursable framework.
Intellectual Property
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office allowed claims extending the use of one of KidneyIntelX’s primary blood biomarkers, sTNFR1, to all patients with diabetes to determine an increased risk of developing progressive kidney disease or kidney failure. We have also completed rights to additional patent applications for use with KidneyIntelX. We continue to build out our intellectual property portfolio and are actively evaluating in-licensing opportunities that will enhance our competitive product positioning.
Current Trading & Outlook
We believe FDA authorization, positive utility and outcomes data, our physician and patient education programs, and comprehensive reimbursement puts us on a path towards KidneyIntelX.dkd becoming broadly used across the United States among the 14 million Americans with diabetic kidney disease, and ultimately within the global market of 850 million people with chronic kidney disease. We are proud of the rapid pace of these achievements just five years from our company’s inception.
Our real-world evidence data is comprehensive and shows clear benefit. With FDA De Novo marketing authorization in June, KidneyIntelX.dkd will become available commercially later in this fiscal year and we expect to see growth in adoption. The social need could not be higher to establish the innovative preventative medicine strategies that KidneyIntelX technology enables at the front-end of diabetes and kidney disease.
During fiscal 2023 over 5,000 KidneyIntelX tests were performed, which was up

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.
Going concern
The Group and Company meet their day-to-day working capital requirements through the use of cash reserves.
The Directors have considered the applicability of the going concern basis in the preparation of these financial statements.
The Group and Company have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company anticipates incurring additional losses until such time, if ever, that it can generate significant sales of KidneyIntelX or any future products currently in development.
As a result of our losses and our projected cash needs, the Directors have concluded that substantial doubt exists about the Group and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Substantial additional capital will be necessary to fund the Group and Company's operations, expand its commercial activities and develop other potential diagnostic related products. The Company plans to seek additional funding through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. The Group and Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, and the Group and Company may not be able to enter into strategic alliances or other arrangements on favorable terms, or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Group and Company’s shareholders. If the Group and Company is unable to obtain funding, the Group and Company could be required to delay, curtail or discontinue research and development programs, product portfolio expansion or future commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business prospect.
The Group and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon successful execution of management’s intended plan over the next twelve months to improve the Group and Company’s liquidity and profitability, which includes, without limitation:
- Seeking additional capital through through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements
- Implementation of various additional operating cost reduction options that are available to the Group and Company
- The achievement of a certain volume of assumed revenue
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this going concern uncertainty.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiary undertakings. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
The Group uses the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration agreement. Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Associates are entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control over the financial and operating policies. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognized at cost. The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognized in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognized in other comprehensive income. The cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment.
Foreign currency translation
(a) Functional and presentational currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars, which is the Group’s presentational currency. The functional currency of the Parent Company is GB Pounds.
(b) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the income statement within ‘administrative expenses’.
(c) Group companies
The results and financial position of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the presentational currency are translated into the presentational currency as follows:
- assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that balance sheet;
- income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates; and
- all resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign operations are taken to other comprehensive income. When a foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold, exchange differences that were recorded in equity are recognized in the income statement as part of the gain or loss on sale.
Segmental reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision- maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Executive Directors who make strategic decisions. At present the Directors consider the business to operate in a single segment.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any provision for impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset and bringing the asset to its working condition for its intended use.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only where it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the Group and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
Fixtures and fittings
The assets’ residual values and useful economic lives are reviewed regularly, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.
An asset’s carrying value is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on the disposal of assets are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized in administration expenses in the income statement.
Intangible assets
(a) Trademarks, trade names and licenses
Separately acquired trademarks and licenses are shown at historical cost. Trademarks and licenses acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Trademarks and licenses have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of trademarks and licenses over the contractual license period of 10 to 15 years and is charged to administrative expenses in the income statement.
(b) Development costs and trade secrets
Development costs have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation.
Expenditure incurred on the development of new or substantially improved products or processes is capitalized, provided that the related project satisfies the criteria for capitalisation, including the project’s technical feasibility and likely commercial benefit. All other research and development costs are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.
Development costs are amortised over the estimated useful life of the products with which they are associated. amortisation commences when a new product is in commercial production. The amortisation is charged to administrative expenses in the income statement. The estimated remaining useful lives of development costs are reviewed at least on an annual basis.
The carrying value of capitalized development costs is reviewed for potential impairment at least annually and if a product becomes unviable and an impairment is identified the deferred development costs are immediately charged to the income statement. Amortisation has not yet commenced.
Trade secrets, including technical know-how, operating procedures, methods and processes, are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Trade secrets have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation. amortisation has not yet commenced.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Assets that have an indefinite life or where amortisation has not yet commenced are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.
The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows. Impairment losses recognized for cash-generating units, to which goodwill has been allocated, are credited initially to the carrying amount of goodwill. Any remaining impairment loss is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash-generating unit.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (cash-generating unit) in the prior period. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the income statement immediately. If goodwill is impaired however, no reversal of the impairment is recognized in the financial statements.
Financial assets
Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: loans and receivables at amortised cost and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired and management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
(a) Loans and receivables
Financial assets are classified as at amortised cost only if both of the following criteria are met: the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted on an active market. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date. These are classified as non-current assets. The Company’s loans and receivables comprise ‘trade and other receivables’ and cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet.
(b) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
The Group classifies the following financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVPL”):
- equity investments that are held for trading, and
- equity investments for which the entity has not elected to recognize fair value gains and losses through Other Comprehensive Income.
(c) Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income comprise equity securities that are not held for trading and which the Group has irrevocably elected at initial recognition to recognize in this category. The Group considers this category to be more relevant for assets of this type.
(d) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
The Group classifies the following financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVPL”):
- Convertible debt recorded at fair value through profit or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and short-term deposits in the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and in hand and short- term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less.
For the purposes of the cash flow statements, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits as defined above.
Share capital and premium
Ordinary Shares are classified as equity. Proceeds in excess of the nominal value of shares issued are allocated to the share premium account and are also classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new Ordinary Shares or options are deducted from the share premium account.
Other reserves - equity
The share-based payment reserve is used to recognize the fair value of equity settled share-based payment transactions.
Foreign currency reserve is used to record the exchange differences on translation of entities in the Group which have a functional currency different to the presentation currency.
Retained earnings includes all current and prior period results as disclosed in the income statement.
Trade and other payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Current and deferred income tax
Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognized in the income statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income where the associated tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiary operate and generate taxable income. Management evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Deferred tax is recognized, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized in respect of all temporary differences except where the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill in business combinations.
Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and tax losses, to the extent that they are regarded as recoverable. They are regarded as recoverable where, on the basis of available evidence, there will be sufficient taxable profits against which the future reversal of the underlying temporary differences can be deducted.
The carrying value of the amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all, or part, of the tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates (and tax laws) that have been substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
Leases
Leases are recognized as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability at the date on which the leased asset is available for use by the Group.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:
- fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
- variable lease payment that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date
- amounts expected to be payable by the group under residual value guarantees
- the exercise price of a purchase option if the group is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and
- payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the group exercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit within the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the Group would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security, and conditions.
Where the Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, amounts are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the income statement over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
- the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
- any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
- any initial direct costs
- restoration costs
Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on straight line basis. If the Group is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset’s useful life.
Revenue Recognition
The Group recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of contracted goods or services. The Group records the amount of revenue that reflects the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Group applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Group satisfies each performance obligation.
The Group only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that it will collect the consideration to which it is entitled in exchange for the goods or services that it transfers to the customer. The Group reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations it must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. Certain contracts have options for the customer to acquire additional services. The Group evaluates these options to determine if a material right exists. If, after that evaluation, it determines a material right does exist, it assigns value to the material right based upon the renewal option approach. The Group recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to each performance obligation when that performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied. The Group uses present right to payment and customer acceptance as indicators to determine the transfer of control to the customer occurs at a point in time. Sales tax and other similar taxes are excluded from revenues.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue consists of costs directly attributable to the services rendered, including labor costs directly related to revenue generating activities.
Employee benefits
(a) Pension obligations
The Group makes contributions to defined contribution pension plans. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity with the pension cost charged to the income statement as incurred. The Group has no further obligations once the contributions have been paid.
(b) Share-based compensation
The Group operates an equity-settled, share-based compensation plan, under which the Group receives services from employees and others as consideration for equity instruments of the Group. Equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of grant and are expensed over the vesting period based on the number of instruments that are expected to vest. For plans where vesting conditions are based on share price targets, the fair value at the date of grant reflects these conditions. Where applicable the Group recognizes the impact of revisions to original estimates in the income statement, with a corresponding adjustment to equity for equity-settled schemes. Fair values are measured using appropriate valuation models, taking into account the terms and conditions of the awards.
When the share-based payment awards are exercised, the Company issues new shares. The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to share capital (nominal value) and share premium.
National insurance on share options
To the extent that the share price at the balance sheet date is greater than the exercise price on options granted to UK citizens under unapproved share-based payment compensation schemes, provision for any National Insurance Contributions has been based on the prevailing rate of National Insurance. The provision is accrued over the performance period attaching to the award.
Interest income
Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to that asset’s net carrying amount.
Exceptional items
These are items of an unusual or non-recurring nature incurred by the Group and include transactional costs and one-off items relating to business combinations, such as acquisition expenses.
Assets Classified as Held for Sale
Assets are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable. They are measured at the lower of their carrying value and fair value less costs to sell. An impairment loss is recognized for any subsequent write-down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell.
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The Company makes estimates and assumptions regarding the future. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year relate to:
- Capitalisation and recoverability of intangible assets
- Share-based payments
- Convertible debt recorded at fair value through profit or loss
5. SEGMENTAL REPORTING
The Group operates as a single segment.
6. REVENUE
Testing services revenue
Testing services revenue is generated from the KidneyIntelX platform, which provides analytical services to customers. Each individual test is a performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time upon completion of the testing process (when results are reported) which is when control passes to the customer and revenue is recognized. During the year ended 30 June 2023, the Company recognized
During the year ended 30 June 2023, the Company performed testing and provided approved KidneyIntelX risk scores for approximately 100 samples or
Pharmaceutical services revenue
Pharmaceutical services revenue is generated from the provision of analytical services to customers. Contracts with customers generally include an initial upfront payment and additional payments upon achieving performance milestones. The Company uses present right to payment and customer acceptance as indicators to determine the transfer of control to the customer which may occur at a point in time or over time depending on the individual contract terms. Sales tax and other similar taxes are excluded from revenues. During the year ended 30 June 2023, the Company recognized
Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue represents the allocated transaction price to the material right which will be recognized as revenue when the renewal options are exercised which is expected to occur over the next 24 months.
The following table summarizes the changes in deferred revenue:

Net losses can be carried forward indefinitely to offset future taxable profits however management has concluded that the realization of deferred tax assets to be less than probable and recorded a full valuation allowance. No deferred asset is calculated on losses in the UK totaling
8. NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net loss per ordinary share includes the effect, if any, from the potential exercise or conversion of securities, such as options which would result in the issuance of incremental ordinary shares. Potentially dilutive securities outstanding as of June 30, 2023, have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive. Therefore, the weighted average number of shares used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share are the same.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the diluted net loss per share calculation included the dilutive effect of convertible debt as well as the impact of the
The following is a reconciliation of basic net loss per share to diluted net loss per share for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In May 2018, the Company secured its cornerstone license agreement with ISMMS for research and clinical study work and intended commercialization by the Company. As part of the collaboration, ISMMS became a shareholder in the Company and has subsequently made equity investments both in the Company’s IPO in November 2018 and the subsequent sale of ordinary shares in July 2019. As of 30 June, 2023 and 2022, amounts due to ISMMS totaled
In connection with the formation of Kantaro, the Company entered into a five-year Advisory Services Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide certain advisory services to Kantaro. Pursuant to the Kantaro Operating Agreement, Kantaro issued 750 Class A Units to Mount Sinai in exchange for Mount Sinai granting licenses to Kantaro under certain intellectual property rights of Mount Sinai and 250 Class A Units to the Company as the sole consideration for the services to be rendered by the Company under the Advisory Agreement. A portion of the Company’s units are subject to forfeiture if, prior to December 31, 2021, Kantaro terminates the Advisory Agreement as a result of an uncured material breach of the Advisory Agreement or in the event the Company is acquired by a hospital or health system that serves all or any portion of the service areas served by Mount Sinai. The Company determined the fair value of the services to be provided under the Advisory Agreement was
A contributing factor to the impairment consideration for Kantaro was lower forecasted sales volume and consequently, a lower time commitment from Renalytix employees. Based on these circumstances, the Company adjusted the liability to perform services to Kantaro under the Advisory Agreement during the year ended June 30, 2021. On December 31, 2022, the members and managers of Kantaro decided that it was in the best interest of Kantaro to wind up the business and unanimously signed a termination agreement. As part of the termination agreement, the members agreed to wind up Kantaro's business and dissolve it reasonably promptly after the effective date of the termination agreement. The termination agreement relieved Renalytix of its obligation to provide services to Kantaro, and the total liability associated with the services was written off.
For the twelve months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized
In addition to the equity granted at formation, in May 2020 the Company and Mount Sinai each committed to making a loan to Kantaro. Mount Sinai committed to lend an initial amount of
In June 2020, we and Mount Sinai entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which we have granted Mount Sinai the following registration rights:
- Demand Registration on Form F-3 – Mount Sinai is entitled to demand registrations on Form F-3, if we are then eligible to register shares on Form F-3, including up to two underwritten offerings in any 12-month period.
- Demand Registration on Form F-1 or Form S-1 – At any time following one year after the completion of the global offering, if we are not eligible to register shares on Form F-3 or S-3, Mount Sinai is entitled to a maximum of one demand registration on Form F-1 or Form S-1 during any 12-month period, subject to specified exceptions.
- Piggyback Registration – Mount Sinai is entitled to certain piggyback registration rights, subject to certain marketing and other limitations in the context of an underwritten offering.
- Expenses – We will pay all registration expenses incident to the performance of our obligations under the registration rights agreement.
Mount Sinai’s registration rights will terminate at such time as Rule 144, or another similar exception under the Securities Act, is available for the unlimited public sale of all of Mount Sinai’s registrable securities without any volume or manner of sale limitations, subject to specified exceptions.

The Form 10-K and Annual Report are available on the Company’s website (www.renalytix.com). In order to help readers to understand the difference between the Group’s two sets of financial statements, Renalytix has provided, on a voluntary basis, a reconciliation from IFRS to U.S. GAAP as follows:
