Observe Medical ASA: Innovation Norway financing at NOK 15 million disbursed and dismantling of corporate complexity to further focus on core business
Oslo, 4 March, 2026 - Observe Medical ASA (the "Company" or "Observe Medical") announces initiatives to reduce complexity and cost to invest further in growth.
Innovation Norway financing
The Company has received a NOK 15 million loan from Innovation Norway. The loan has been disbursed and strengthens the Company's cash position and supports continued development of its core business activities and new product development.
Dismantling complexity
As communicated in the interim report announced on 27 February 2026, the Company has fully written down its investment and related book values in respect of the Biim probe due to lack of progress from the Company's key customer. As a consequence, the final steps to close down all Biim related activities have now been resolved by the board including to wind up Biim Ultrasound AS and its subsidiaries.
The decision forms part of the Company's ongoing efforts to streamline its corporate structure and reduce administrative complexity and costs. Following completion of this process the Group structure will be simplified, and our cost base will be reduced accordingly.
As part of the Company's sharpened strategic focus, recruitment of two new commercial resources has been initiated to accelerate market penetration.
CEO Jørgen Mann, comments: "Through reduction of complexity combined with significant cost reduction we are continuing our journey towards building a strong platform with the UnoMeter business where we have seen good progress and a strong Product Development pipeline. With these steps we believe to have completed the right-sizing of Observe Medical and we are now fully focused on accelerating commercial execution and driving growth in our core business."
Observe Medical invites investors, analysts, and other stakeholders to a presentation with trading update 25 March 2026, at 10:00 CET.
