The cash flow from current operations was negative in the amount of TSEK 13,182 (3,751).
The gross margin was 69.9% (68.7%).
Electrode sales volume increased by 18% and was 13,724 (11,614) units. Repeat sales of electrodes to existing customers increased by 19%.
Important events during the quarter
Overall sales increased by 18% (+17, before currency effects). Sales in Germany within the skin cancer segment increased by 15%(15% in local currency). Sales in the US skin cancer market increased by 67% while the sales within the skin barrier segment decreased by 15%.
The first direct comparison between electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) using Nevisense and trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) was published in the scientific journal Annals of Dermatology. The study demonstrates Nevisense as a more robust technique to assess skin barrier function than the commonly accepted TEWL measurement technique. The authors concluded that EIS (Nevisense) can assess skin barrier function with less sensitivity to confounding lifestyle factors than TEWL.

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, - May 29, 2024 - SciBase Holding AB ("SciBase") [STO: SCIB], a leading developer of artificial intelligence (AI)-based solutions for skin disorders is pleased to announce the launch of the eBarrier Score for Nevisense, the first-ever AI skin barrier assessment tool built for use in research and cosmetic testing. The eBarrier Score was announced today at the Cosmetotest cosmetic testing symposium in Lyon, France.
Researchers of the skin barrier and cosmetic products can now use Nevisense and the eBarrier Score to assess products and claims related to skin barrier function. The global market for cosmetic products aiming to improve people's skin barrier is experiencing immense growth.
Nevisense and the eBarrier Score utilize AI-generated algorithms that researchers can use to directly quantitate the severity of skin barrier dysfunction related to common skin disorders.
In a recently published study (Skin Barrier Function Assessment: Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy Is Less Influenced by Daily Routine Activities Than Transepidermal Water Loss - https://anndermatol.org/DOIx.php?id=10.5021/ad.23.052) the first direct comparison between electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) using Nevisense and trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) was made. The study demonstrates Nevisense being a more robust technique to assess skin barrier function than the within research commonly used TEWL measurement technique.
"We are thrilled to introduce the eBarrier Score to the cosmetic research market," said Pia Renaudin, CEO of SciBase. "Every day, there are new cosmetic products related to skin barrier function. The Nevisense eBarrier Score is already an established tool in the medical research field and bringing it to the cosmetic research market will truly benefit consumers."
For more information on the eBarrier Score and SciBase's other research or medical products, visit scibase.com. In February SciBase announced a partnership with Skinobs, a leading global platform connecting researchers with the tools they need for their cosmetic and medical research. Through this partnership, SciBase can now offer Nevisense and eBarrier for assessing skin barrier function within cosmetic testing on the Skinobs platform.

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, - May 22, 2024 - SciBase Holding AB ("SciBase") [STO: SCIB], a leading developer of augmented intelligence-based solutions for skin disorders announced today that a new clinical study has been published presenting the improvement that the Nevisense provides over visual and dermoscopic evaluation when clinical evaluations were done by German dermatologists. The article named "Utilizing Data from Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy Significantly Improves the Decision to Biopsy Pigmented Skin Lesions Beyond Clinical Evaluation and Dermoscopy" has been published in the journal "SKIN - The journal of cutaneous medicine". The study included 151 German Dermatologists making a total of 22.197 clinical biopsy decisions. Nevisense was able to improve the rate of correct biopsy choice even after dermoscopic evaluation. While dermoscopy worsened diagnostic accuracy for benign lesions, Nevisense results were able to significantly improve decision making for these lesions as well. This study demonstrates the clinical utility of Nevisense technology for improving melanoma diagnosis.
The article is available through the following link: https://jofskin.org/index.php/skin/article/view/2789
"This is a very important study and results for SciBase as it quantifies the improvement in clinical decision-making possible with Nevisense even compared to dermsocopy. In Germany dermoscopy is standard of care for Dermatologists. The study showed that the addition of Nevisense further improved dermatologists’ clinical performance. This is another publication that shows that Nevisense has a significant role in the diagnostic process to correctly identify malignant lesions in order to not miss any melanomas", says Pia Renaudin, CEO of SciBase.
