Notice of Results
BATM (LSE: BVC; TASE: BVC), a global provider of advanced network infrastructure, cybersecurity and diagnostic technologies, is pleased to announce the sale of three of its non-core businesses as the Group continues to execute on its strategy to exit its non-core activities and drive focus on its core strengths of networks, cyber and diagnostics. The Group also gives notice of its interim results announcement for the six months ended 30 June 2025.
Strategic execution - sale of non-core businesses
On 30 June 2025, the Group sold two of its non-core businesses, namely Celitron, its eco-med business in Hungary, and Zer Laboratories, an administrator of third-party pre-natal diagnostic tests in Israel. The businesses had been lossmaking for multiple years and the eco-med business had been classified earlier in the year as a discontinued operation for the purpose of the Group's financial reporting.
The Group had readied these operations for sale and intended to close them, to preserve the Group's cash resources, if a sale did not occur during 2025. By securing the sale of these operations, the Group will significantly reduce its costs and ongoing commitments related to these businesses. The Group has also received a total of c. $383k in cash in consideration for the disposals.
In addition, further to the announcement of 5 March 2025, the Group is pleased to confirm that the sale of its Progenetics subsidiary was completed by the end of the first half of 2025 for a total consideration of $2m for the Group's 51% shareholding.
Notice of results
The Group gives notice that it will announce its interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2025 on Monday 18 August 2025.
