ThermoGenesis Holdings Announces Financial Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2020 and Provides Corporate Update
ThermoGenesis Holdings, Inc. (THMO) reported a Q2 2020 net revenue of $2.2 million, down 48% from $4.3 million in Q2 2019.

The company expects sales to return to normal post-pandemic and is strategically expanding its product offerings, including COVID-19 solutions.
- CAR-TXpress™ sales increased by $400,000 from the prior period.
- The company has launched a SARS-CoV-2 IgM/IgG Antibody Test Kit, authorized for Emergency Use by the FDA.
- Improved cash position with $7.0 million in cash and equivalents at June 30, 2020.

RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif., Aug. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- ThermoGenesis Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: THMO), a market leader in automated cell processing tools and services in the cell and gene therapy field, today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 and provided a corporate strategic update.
Second Quarter and Subsequent Achievements:
- In April 2020, the Company's
19% -owned joint venture, ImmuneCyte, acquired worldwide intellectual property for development of fully human antibody therapeutics for COVID-19, including four high-affinity monoclonal antibody drug candidates against SARS-CoV-2 and tools for screening and quantifying efficacy of such neutralizing antibodies. Results of the research related to these neutralizing antibody therapeutics were published in an article entitled, "Cross-neutralization antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 and RBD mutations from convalescent patient antibody libraries," in bioRxiv in June 2020. - On June 4, at the 2020 annual stockholder meeting, the Company received majority stockholder approval to authorize a new class of non-voting class B common stock. The Company intends to issue shares of the class B common stock to existing stockholders as a dividend payout. The class B common stock will be publicly traded under a separate ticker from its current class of common stock. The Company intends to use the class B shares as a vehicle to assist with future strategic acquisitions. The timing of the dividend will be determined by the Company at a later date.
- On June 11, the Company filed patent applications for a point-of-care device which improves the speed and accuracy of its lateral flow immunoassays (LFIA) to detect COVID-19 IgM and IgG antibodies from a single drop of blood.
- On June 23, Corning Incorporated's Life Sciences Division began the commercial launch of the Company's X-SERIES® cell processing platform under the ThermoGenesis® and Corning® dual brand, as part of the previously announced global distribution agreement.
- On June 29, the Company was added to the Russell Microcap® Index.
- On August 11, the Company entered into a supply agreement with BioHit Healthcare (Hefei) Co., Ltd., to market, under the ThermoGenesis brand, its SARS-CoV-2 IgM/IgG Antibody Test Kit, which has already received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Marketing activities are expected to begin on August 17, 2020.
"During the last few months, we adapted our strategy to develop and market a range of solutions to fight the global pandemic," stated Chris Xu, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of ThermoGenesis. "Notably, we contracted with a new manufacturer for a SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) IgM/IgG Antibody Test Kit which has already obtained EUA designation from the FDA and look forward to begin marketing next week. We plan to further differentiate this kit with the addition of a lateral flow immunoassay cartridge testing kit reader, now in the final stages of development, which is designed to improve the speed and accuracy of the COVID-19 antibody assay. Our research team has already filed a number of key patent applications around the reader, which allows for big data analysis, which we believe will be essential information as we continue to re-open our society and our economy."
Dr. Xu continued, "Also of note, was the commercial launch of our proprietary X-SERIES cell processing platform by our global distributor, Corning Life Sciences, under the ThermoGenesis and Corning® dual brand. We remain committed to expanding our robust product line of automated cellular processing tools and services to become a market leader for cell banking and cell therapies, which will sustain our growth beyond this COVID-19 pandemic."
Jeff Cauble, Chief Financial Officer of ThermoGenesis, added, "The second quarter marked one of our best quarters for CAR-TXpress™ sales, up
