BLIS Technologies

BLIS Technologies Limited is reporting revenue growth of 23% and ebitda of $0.5m for the first quarter, ending June 30, 2024.

Revenue for 1Q25 was $3.4m, an increase of $0.6m compared with the same period past year. Ebitda was up $0.5m on the breakeven result from 1Q24.

The biotechnology company commenced business in August 2000 when it acquired, from the University of Otago, rights to Salivaricin B, a substance that acts as a natural antibiotic to control streptococcal throat infections. Since then, it has acquired the university's collection of several thousand BLIS (bacteriocin-like-inhibitory substances) producing organisms collected over 25 years by Professor John Tagg, now a consultant to the company.

Chief executive officer Scott Johnson said the outlook for the FY25 year was double-digit revenue growth on FY24 and an ebitda result similar to last year, noting the result will include a material investment in China regulatory access of $0.5m.
