OUR CUSTOMER
The company spent the next few years developing a recognized scientific and technical expertise in avian ES cells, with the aim to apply these technologies to genetically improve avian species of commercial interest.
The work on ES cells did not provide the potential originally envisaged for avian transgenesis but it was identified that avian ES cells held a tremendous potential for the commercial production of human and veterinary viral vaccines. In 2003, the team focused on these industrial applications and obtained the first commercial licenses
These achievements drove the development of the commercial value of the company and the company was able to successfully carry out an IPO in 2007 which was 7 times over subscribed. The company is in a very strong position since with current commercial licenses in place and the funds raised via the IPO, the company has in excess of 4 years cash. By focussing on proprietary processes and technology platforms, they could develop a strong business model of Up-Front and Milestone payments, coupled to a significant license royalty fee. The current business plan of the company is to further develop the vaccine and protein manufacturing sector, but also based on research and development already performed, to move into the co-development and development of proprietary products for the vaccine and therapeutic protein areas. The company is already actively involved in the co-development of an anti-cancer monoclonal antibody and a recombinant vaccine against an infectious disease, and i!
ts development team is currently being further expanded. Major additional deals with leaders in the vaccine industry have now been signed with licensees such as GSK, CSL, Kaketsuken and Intervet.
