Goodbody Health Inc. Publishes Highest Quarterly Profit to Date in Q1 2022

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 25, 2022 / Goodbody Health Inc. (CSE:GDBY) (OTCQB:GDBYF) ("Goodbody Health" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its highest comprehensive profit of £0.10m and adjusted EBITDA of £0.23m in its unaudited Interim Financial Statements for the three months to 31 March 2022. The revenue at £5.17m was also the second-best quarter to date after Q4 2021.

The Company has filed the Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis for the quarter ending March 31, 2022, with strong results due to its growth in testing services. All amounts unless stated otherwise are presented in British Pounds (GBP).

The Company, having set the goal to roll out non-covid testing in Q1 experienced a strong continuation of PCR bookings during the period. Covid testing has now tailed off but as a result, our transition to wellness testing has been pushed back to Q2 & Q3 because of the success of Q1 and so will not be as strong in those quarters as originally envisaged. However, as at today, we have over 200 clinics and over 100 Abbott devices ready to activate as the PCR testing reduces. The Company is excited and fully focussed on becoming the leading aggregator of innovative technology and innovative tests, including blood and genome, while identifying additional products to enable consumers to take more control of their health and wellbeing.
