Approval of the General Meeting's resolutions
Solid cash position to continue development
The Combined General Meeting of Spineway's shareholders was held upon first notice of meeting on Monday, 8 March 2020, behind closed doors, at the Company's registered office. The number of shares held by the shareholders represented amounted to 3 232 993 768 shares, i.e., a turnout of 25.79%.
All the resolutions submitted before the General Meeting, whether in its ordinary or extraordinary form, were adopted except the 12th resolution, as recommended by the Board of Directors.
Solid cash position of ¤12M to accelerate the Group's development
At this meeting, the Group reviewed the key aspects of its 2020 financial year in which rigorous management of operating costs allowed Spineway to significantly decrease its operating losses despite its drop in revenue to ¤3.4M (-33%) due to the pandemic. Over the course of the financial year, Spineway was able to decrease its operating losses by 18% to -¤1.9M and strengthened its financial situation as well as its cash position in order to support its development strategy.
The reinforcement of available funds continued into early 2021, allowing the Group to ensure available cash of over ¤12M1 that, less financial debts, amounts to ¤10M (compared with ¤2M at the end of December 2020). This solid financial base will allow Spineway to finance its development, with its growth including both organic growth and targeted acquisitions with added value, and also its new partnerships, such as the one recently entered into with Tsunami Medical and others under consideration across the Atlantic.
