·      EBITDA loss for FY25 was up 13.63% to $11.6 million compared to PCP (FY24: $10.6 million loss) impacted by one off non-cash expenses of $8.6 million and one off transaction and corporate fees of $3.1 million.

Wellnex Life Limited (ASX) ("Wellnex Life" or the "Company") is pleased to release its Appendix 4E for Financial Year 2025 (FY25).

In FY25, Wellnex Life achieved continued revenue and margin growth whilst further establishing a platform for future prosperity with the successful dual listing on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. This allowed the Company to strengthen its balance sheet with the settlement of the deferred consideration for Pain Away and the convertible note saving the company c.$1.4 million in annual costs.

Total revenue for FY25 was $23.6 million which was an increase of 40.4% from PCP (FY24: $16.8 million), with the increase in revenue primarily achieved from Wellnex Life's brands, including Pain Away.  

The Company also saw a rise in gross profit in dollar terms of 38.4% to $6.9 million (FY24: $5.0 million) which was in line with FY24 as a percentage of revenue. This was despite a one-off increase in trade investment in 1HFY25 which resulted in gross margin decreasing to 23% with a more disciplined approach to trade investment in the 2HFY25 increasing gross margin for this period to 37%.

Total loss for FY25 was $15.6 million, which was impacted by non-cash and one-off expenses of $11.7 million, primarily in relation to Pain Away and other corporate activities including the dual listing on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. The normalised EBITDA loss for FY25 decreased by 57.0% to $2.2 million compared to PCP (FY24: $5.2 million loss).

Comments

The loss for the consolidated entity after providing for income tax amounted to $15.6 million (FY24: $13.7 million loss).

 

Revenue for the period was $23.6 million an increase of 40.4% on the prior corresponding period (FY24: $16.8 million). The increase in revenue primarily came from Wellnex Life's owned brands and in particular Pain Away which included trading for the first time for a full financial year.


Wellnex Life's gross profit margins were in line with the previous year at 29.1% or $6.9 million (FY24: $5.0 million) but were impacted by a one-off increase in trade investment in 1HFY25 which resulted in gross profit margins for this period being 23% which subsequently increased to 37% in 2HFY25.

 
Loss for the full year of $15.6 million was up 13.6% on the prior corresponding period (FY24: $13.8 million), with the loss in FY25 impacted by non-cash adjustments and one off expenses of $10.7 million and finance costs of $2.1 million.
 
The normalised EBITDA loss (excluding one-off expenses associated with the acquisition of Pain Away, the UK IPO and non-cash expenses) for the period was $2.2 million, a decrease of 57.0% on the prior corresponding period (FY24: $5.2 million loss).
 
Wellnex Life expects revenue to increase strongly in FY26 with gross profit expected to increase with a more disciplined trade investment plan, with the growth to come from:

 


Continued growth of Wellnex Life's other brands 


Expansion of the licensing partner arrangements with continued growth in the domestic market and international markets

 

Financial Position

The total net assets of the entity at 30 June 2025 were $11.3 million (at 30 June 2024: $6.1 million), an increase of 85.6%.

 
Wellnex Life during the period via its dual listing on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange, settled both the deferred consideration for Pain Away and the outstanding convertible notes.

 
Wellnex Life's next step is to target increasing shareholder value by continuing to grow its brands that will see a continuation of the strengthening of the balance sheet and will allow it to accelerate the company's growth in both revenue, margins and operational profitability. 

 

FY25 - Transformational Year

  
Financial Year 2025 has laid the foundations for a pathway of Company growth and maximising operational profitability, with increasing revenue and strengthened balance sheet. The Company continues to see the benefit of Pain Away with increasing revenue and net margins of c.50%.


The successful dual listing of the Company on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange, and the associated capital raising, resulted in the company settling the deferred consideration of Pain Away and the outstanding convertible notes of c.$13 million, in aggregate.


Revenue for the period increased by 40.4% compared to the previous corresponding period to $23.6 million (FY24: $16.8 million), with gross profit margin for the period at 29.1% or $6.9 million (FY24: $5.0 million). Gross profit margin in the first half of the period was 23% or $2.7 million which increased in the second half to 37% or $4.2 million. Wellnex Life will maintain the disciplined trade investment plan in FY26, that will allow it to maximise margins and operational profitability.

Wellnex Life in FY26 has many growth drivers across the business that are expected to continue to increase revenue, maintain a healthy margin and a path to profitability, with its growing brands and expanding licensing opportunities.

Wellnex Life Limited

Notes to the Preliminary Report

30 June 2025

 

Note 1. General information

 

The Annual financial report covers Wellnex Life Limited as a consolidated entity consisting of Wellnex Life Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year. The Annual financial report is presented in Australian dollars, which is Wellnex Life Limited's functional and presentation currency.

 

Wellnex Life Limited is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office and principal place of business is:

 

Building 2, Level 3, Suite 72,



574 Plummer Street



Port Melbourne VIC 3207



 


Note 2. Material accounting policy information

 

Going concern

The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and realisation of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The going concern of the consolidated entity is dependent upon it maintaining sufficient funds for its operations and commitments.


The consolidated entity made a loss after tax of $15,604,000 during the year ended 30 June 2025 and the net cash used in operating activities was $666,000. The cash balance as at 30 June 2025 was $497,000. The deficiency of current liabilities over current assets as at 30 June 2025 was $8,373,000.


These factors indicate a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt as to whether the consolidated entity will continue as a going concern and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.


Notwithstanding these results, the accounts have been prepared on the basis that the consolidated entity will continue its business activities (and that, therefore, the consolidated entity is a going concern) for the following reasons:

 


the consolidated entity since the acquisition of Pain Away is generating high margin revenue that will generate positive cashflow for the business and we are also seeing growth in our other brands;


the extension of the Haleon arrangement into the UK in the first half of FY25 will generate significant revenue and cashflow for the business;


the consolidated entity holds significant inventory including in some cases 12 months' supply to manufacture products, with the inventory held at 30 June able to generate circa $3 million in sales; 


the consolidated entity also has the ability to raise additional capital through its lead Australian broker and they have provided support that they will raise additional capital as required, through a placement.


the consolidated entity has the ability to significantly curtail expenses. As at 30 June 2025 the Company has received representations from key sources of finance and its key management personnel stating their ability, if required, to provide financial support for a period of at least 13 months from the date of signing this report.

 


Note 3. Operating segments

 

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the board of directors.

 

During the 2024 financial year the consolidated entity acquired the assets of Pain Away. The business operates in the same business and geographical segment as the rest of the Group, being a provider of high quality Australian made health and wellness products throughout Australasia. All revenue and assets generated during the financial year were generated in Australia.

All revenues of the consolidated entity are recognised at a point in time for all revenue types.

(1) As at 30 June 2024, the group completed the acquisition of the Pain Away brand for total consideration of $21.36m.

 

Intangible assets consist of the Group's brand assets which are amortizing over 20 years. As at 30 June 2025 these brand assets were represented by the Group's acquisition of Pain Away which was acquired during the year for a purchase price of $21.36m. The directors have reviewed this asset for indications of impairment as at 30 June 2025 and have concluded that this asset has no indications of impairment. In concluding this, the directors considered the following factors:

 

(a)  the underlying financial performance of the Pain Away brand cash-generating unit;

(b)  external evidence of fair value of the asset in the Australian market; and

(c)  the overall market capitalization of the Group relative to its net book values represented in the Statement of Financial Position.

Note 9. Events after the reporting period

 

Subsequent to the end of the financial year and to support the continued growth in the business, and to provide greater financial flexibility alongside its ScotPac invoice discounting facilities, the Group has entered into a loan facility via Reach Wholesale ("Reach") for the amount of $2.825 million (the "Facility"). The Facility, which is secured over the assets of the Group's key subsidiaries, is for a 24-month term at an interest rate of 14% for the term of the Facility. The coupon before arrangement and administration fees payable to Reach is broadly similar to the Group's existing financing facility arrangements.

 

No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2025 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the consolidated entity's operations, the results of those operations, or the consolidated entity's state of affairs in future financial years.

The dilutive impact of shares, options and rights has not been included in the weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purposes of calculating diluted EPS as it does not meet the requirements for inclusion in AASB 133 'Earnings Per Share'. The rights to these shares, options and rights are non-dilutive as the consolidated entity is loss generating. During the period the Company consolidated the securities of the company on a ratio of 50:1, so an a like for like basis the loss per share on both a basic and diluted value was 1.07 cents.
