Inify Laboratories AB: Inify Laboratories: 60% quarterly sales growth and highly positive response to UK expansion
STOCKHOLM - February 26, 2025 - Inify Laboratories, a unique laboratory service that provides cancer diagnostics within pathology, saw sales grow by 60% compared to the previous quarter, and 472% compared to the fourth quarter 2023. Sales for the full year reached SEK 13.7 million, compared to SEK 1.2 million the year before.
"Both the fourth quarter and the full year 2024 were a success for Inify. Our sales grew substantially, and our Swedish laboratory operations generated positive financial results for both the fourth quarter and the full year," says CEO Fredrik Palm at Inify Laboratories.
At the end of the year, Inify had around 80% market share of prostate diagnostics in the Stockholm region, and has signed the company's first agreement with a Swedish region - an important milestone in domestic expansion and increasing the current market share in Sweden.
"While we see this as a major achievement in our first full year of operation, the laboratory has the capacity to handle volumes exceeding Sweden's total national demand, leaving substantial room for continued growth," says Palm.
The expansion into the UK health care market is moving ahead rapidly, with strong recruitments and promising location evaluations. Inify has also continued to deepen and expand dialogues with both the public healthcare system (NHS) and private healthcare providers. The UK laboratory operations will be established in 2025, with the goal of opening for clinical activities in early 2026.
"The response in the UK has been very positive, with strong expectations for how we can collaboratively develop the pathway for patients undergoing investigation for suspected prostate cancer," says Palm.
Funding to support the UK expansion and strengthen working capital was secured in the fourth quarter. The company also began its development of a system to support diagnostics in the gastrointestinal tract.
"This opens up new opportunities in a market with sample volumes ten times larger than those of prostate cancer. Our goal is to be able to initiate the expansion of our service offering in the second half of 2025," says Palm.
Additionally, the company entered an important research collaboration within prostate cancer, with a leading research group at Karolinska Institute in Sweden.
"The future looks bright for Inify. Going forward, we have ambitious goals - not just our establishment in the UK, a market that is six times larger than Sweden, but also the development of our system to expand our service offering," Palm concludes.
