GEN inCode Announces Completion of £3M Institutional Foundation Fundraise

OXFORD,England,Sept. 1,2020 -- GEN inCode UK Limited,the privately-owned artificial intelligence cardiovascular disease company focused on the prevention of cardiovascular disease,announces today the completion of a £3.0M institutional fundraise to internationally scale its products and technology.

GEN inCodespecializes in genetic risk assessment and the prediction of cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a broad disease classification including coronary artery disease,such as angina and myocardial infarction,often referred to as "heart attack". CVD also includes stroke,heart failure,hypertension,venous thromboembolism and other vascular heart diseases. CVD is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide accounting for onein every fourdeaths in the United States. By 2030,the total global cost ofCVDis set to rise from approximately US $863 billion in 2010 to US $1,044 billion and is both a major health issue and global economic burden.

GEN inCode's CE marked invitro-diagnostic products provide genetic information to enable patients,doctors and healthcare practitioners to assess and predict the onset of CVD. The Company's products and 'cloud-based' reporting system help inform healthcare practitioners and patients of their CVDrisk,enabling behavioural change alongside delivery of the most effective course of treatment.

GEN inCode has amassed significant investment in over15 years' worth of research data and the development of products and algorithms to assess disease risk and prevent the onset of CVD. In September 2018,the Company acquired the products,assets and know-how of the Ferrer inCode and the Gendiag.exe businesses,then part of The Ferrer Group,a large pharmaceutical and healthcare multinational company with headquarters in Barcelona,Spain. GEN inCode has now received institutional funding from Maven Capital Partners and Downing to expand its operations in Europe,the UK and U.S.

GEN inCode's vision is to educate patients about their cardiovascular risk and to improve public health by using the predictive capability of its products with targeted therapies to determine lifestyle choice and improve patient outcomes.

Matthew Walls,Chairman and CEO,said:"We are delighted to complete the institutional round of funding and welcome Mavenand Downing,our new institutional investors. The funding will prepare the Company for accelerated growth and international scale and supports our regulatory and clinical pathway into the U.S. market. We look forward to advising the market on our progress and further milestones in due course."

Jordi Puig,Co-founder and Group COO,said: "This marks another milestone in the development of our Company and prepares us to rapidly scale our products and technology across our European business."
