PRESIDENT & CEO SEMI KORPELA:
‘During the reporting period, the development of net sales continued to grow
and earnings improved compared to January-March 2014. During the first quarter,
Biohit Oyj focused on expanding its international distributor network and
supporting existing partners, for example by promoting product registrations
and in business operations. In addition, we have focused on the development of
domestic sales services as well as the commercialization of our newest
products.
In Finland, we signed a distribution agreement with Oriola which covers
Acetium® products; the agreement is effective after a transition period (first
half of 2015) and will replace the previous distribution agreement. Oriola Oy
acquires exclusive rights to the distribution of Acetium® capsule and Acetium®
lozenge in Finland. During the reporting period we signed a distribution
agreement with Akeso Pharmaceuticals. As a result of this agreement, Akeso
acquired exclusive rights to the distribution of Acetium® capsules throughout
the Russian Federation.
In March, Biohit Oyj and Gulf Drug LCC signed a distributor agreement regarding
Biohit's diagnostic tests. By this agreement, Gulf Drug acquired exclusive
rights to the distribution of these tests in the United Arab Emirates. The
agreement covers the following Biohit tests: GastroPanel®, Helicobacter Pylori
UFT300 Quick Test, Biohit Active B12 vitamin test, ColonView Quick Test,
Lactose Intolerance Quick Test (LIQT) and Celiac Disease Quick Test (CDQT).
During the reporting period we also signed a distribution agreement with Gulf
Orlando Medical regarding diagnostic tests in Kuwait and also an agreement with
PT InoDia regarding quick tests in Indonesia.
The Association for Finnish Work granted Acetium capsules and Acetium lozenges
the Key Flag symbol, which signifies that the products are manufactured in
Finland. In terms of diagnostics, Biohit offers tests for digestional diseases
through pharmacy campaigns all over Finland. The Ympyrätalo Pharmacy offers
similar tests for its clients as a part of its permanent base range.
We introduced Biohit Quick Test Reader during the reporting period, which
allows for the reliable use of Biohit ColonView Quick Test and Biohit Celiac
Disease Quick Test. The published research results related to acetaldehyde and
cancer screening underlined the importance of our offering as part of socially
important prevention of major diseases and early diagnosis and thereby saving
costs.'

REPORTING
Biohit's product portfolio consists of diagnostic tests, acetaldehyde-binding
products and monoclonal antibodies. The entire product portfolio is reported
under a single segment.
NET SALES AND RESULT
January-March
Net sales grew by 28.2% compared with 1-3/2014.
The operating loss from continuing operations was EUR -1.0 million (EUR -1.2
million 1-3/2014). The result for continuing operations during the reporting
period totalled EUR -0.9 million (EUR -1.0 million).
The result for discontinued operations during the reporting period totalled EUR
0.0 million (EUR 3.3 million). In conjunction with the divestment of the liquid
handling business in late 2011, EUR 3.5 million of the gains on the sale were
not recognized due to the terms of the sale agreement and to other, related
factors that remained open at the time. The amount was recognized on 31 March
2014, when the deal was closed.
The result for the reporting period totalled EUR -0.9 million (EUR 2.2 million).

BALANCE SHEET
On 31 March 2015, the balance sheet total was EUR 13.6 million (31 December
2014 EUR 14.5 million), and the equity ratio was 88.0% (31 December 2014
87.5%).
FINANCING
Biohit Oyj enjoys a strong financial position, which allows determined
investments in an international distributor network as well as the development
and commercialization of new products.
At the end of the reporting period, the company's financial assets totalled EUR
9.1 million (31 December 2014 EUR 10.4 million).
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
R&D operations were again focused on innovations, as well as product
development and improved usability. Biohit also employs external experts and
subcontractors in its R&D operations. Development expenditure on the
diagnostics business has not been capitalized. Research and development
expenditure during the 1-3/2015 reporting period amounted to EUR 0.5 million
(EUR 0.5 million).
In Finland, there is still an ongoing research project on smoking cessation
(with the Acetium lozenge as the research product), and two research projects
on preventing migraine-type headache episodes (with the Acetium capsule as the
research product)
The development of the new standardized GastroPanel test is nearing its final
stages, and the new test requires clinical confirmatory examinations
(validation). The research plan is ready and one of the confirmed executors is
the Oulu University Hospital.
Acetium capsules' Acetaldehyde-binding properties have been studied in trials
conducted in Japan and Sweden, both of which have confirmed the previous
scientific results of Acetium. The studies showed that Acetium binds the Group
I carcinogenic acetaldehyde by 60-80% and creates a harmless MTCA compound. The
scientific report of the Japanese trials was published in April in a
well-respected PLOS ONE publication. The equivalent Swedish report has also
been completed and is currently under review by the research team members.
At the turn of the year, preparations were being made for a comparative
ColonView trial involving a sample of 300 patients, in addition to which a
screening trial is being implemented based on a population sample of 1,000
people. The comparative trial has been completed and the scientific report on
the study has been accepted for publication by the international cancer
journal, Anticancer Research.
INVESTMENTS
Gross investments during the reporting period totalled EUR 0.1 million (EUR 0.1
million).
PERSONNEL
During the reporting period, the average number of personnel employed by the
Group was 49 (46) of whom 41 (38) were employed by the parent company and 8 (8)
by its subsidiaries.
SHORT-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTY FACTORS
Biohit's key risks have to do with the investments required for business
growth. There are risks involved in areas such as the success of clinical
trials, new market areas, the selection and development of distribution
channels, personnel recruitment, registration processes, product pricing, and
political decision-making affecting the progress of screening programmes.
Significant short-term risks are associated with the selection of new market
areas, the timing of expansion into selected markets and product success in
these markets. The recent increase in uncertainty factors associated with
international politics may have an unfavourable impact on the company's
business.
The duration of the product registration process is different in each market
area. For this reason, it is not possible to accurately assess the time it
takes the authorities to handle registrations in these areas and for product
sales to begin.
When investing liquid assets, the objective is to gain a return on investment
with a minimum risk of equity loss. The investment portfolio consists of
deposits, money market investments and corporate loans. A fundamental aspect of
portfolio management is sufficient diversification across different asset
classes, investment instruments and counterparties. Biohit conducts its
investment activities with at least two partners.
Thanks to its wide customer base, Biohit does not materially depend on any
individual customers or project deliveries, with the exception of GastroPanel
sales in China, which currently represents a major business for Biohit. Most of
the company's business is conducted in euros.
MAIN EVENTS IN THE FIRST QUARTER
Biohit and Ympyrätalo Pharmacy to co-operation
Biohit Oyj and Ympyrätalo Pharmacy (Helsinki, Finland) agreed in January to
co-operate, and in this way Ympyrätalo Pharmacy will offer diagnostic tests by
Biohit to its customers. Co-operation covers Biohit's tests for diagnosis of
digestional diseases. Ympyrätalo Pharmacy provides nursing services and the
tests as a part of its permanent base range.
Biohit Oyj and Akeso to sign an Acetium distribution agreement in Russia
Biohit Oyj signed a distribution agreement with Akeso Pharmaceuticals. The
agreement became effective immediately, and Akeso acquired the exclusive rights
to the distribution of Acetium® capsules in Russian Federation.
BIOHIT ColonView is the best colorectal cancer screening test on the market
An international study comparing colorectal cancer screening tests has been
completed, and the scientific report has been accepted for publication in an
international cancer journal - Anticancer Research.
Biohit and Oriola to distribution agreement
Biohit Oyj signed a distribution agreement with Oriola Oy. The agreement is
effective after a transition period (first half of 2015), and will replace the
previous distribution agreement in Finland. With the agreement, Oriola acquires
exclusive rights to the distribution of Acetium® capsules and Acetium® lozenges
in Finland.
Biohit and Gulf Drug to sign a distributor agreement
Biohit Oyj and Gulf Drug LCC signed a distributor agreement regarding the
diagnostic tests of Biohit. The agreement came into force immediately, and Gulf

Arab Emirates. The agreement covers the following Biohit tests: GastroPanel®,
Helicobacter Pylori UFT300 Quick Test, Biohit Active B12 vitamin test,
ColonView Quick Test, Lactose Intolerance Quick Test and Celiac Disease Quick
Test.
MAJOR EVENTS AFTER THE END OF THE REPORTING PERIOD
Effortless accuracy with Biohit Quick Test Reader
After the reporting period Biohit released an accurate and easy-to-use Biohit
Quick Test Reader that allows effective use of Biohit ColonView Quick Test and
Biohit Celiac Disease Quick Test in point-of-care setting. The Quick test
reader is especially suitable for mobile units due to its robust construction
and non-dependency on electricity supply (it has rechargeable batteries). The
reader has a data storage capacity on a memory card, and is compliant with most
hospital and laboratory information systems (HIS/LIS).
Acetaldehyde - a major pathophysiologic factor in gastric carcinogenesis
The results of the collaborative Japanese-Finnish study have been published in
PLOS ONE journal
Stomach cancer is the third leading cause of cancer death in both sexes
worldwide (723,000 deaths/year, 8.8% of the total). The highest estimated
mortality rates are in Eastern Asia. In a collaborative Japanese-Finnish study,
it was demonstrated for the first time that a genetic deficiency
(ALDH2-deficiency) in eliminating acetaldehyde results in markedly increased
(5.6-fold) exposure of the gastric mucosa to carcinogenic acetaldehyde after
the intragastric administration of alcohol. Furthermore, Biohit's Acetium
capsules (100mg x 2) eliminated 60% of acetaldehyde formed from alcohol and the
effect of capsules continued for the whole follow-up period of two hours.
The Key Flag symbol is granted to Acetium capsules and Acetium lozenges
The Association for Finnish Work granted the Key Flag symbol to Acetium
capsules and Acetium lozenges, which shows that the products are manufactured
in Finland.
Mekalasi Oy to distribute Biohit Quick Tests in Finland
Biohit Oyj and Mekalasi Oy have signed a distributor agreement regarding the
Quick Tests of Biohit. The agreement came into force immediately.

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of
the IAS 34 standard.
All business operations are presented as one segment. Biohit Oyj has applied
the same accounting principles in preparing this interim report as in its
financial statements of 2014.
The IFRS standards or standard interpretations that came into effect in 2015
did not have a material impact on the accounting principles. On 1 January 2014,
Biohit Oyj introduced the standards IFRS10 Consolidated Financial Statements
and IFRS11 Joint Arrangements. The introduction of the standards had an impact
on the accounting of Biohit's Chinese joint venture, Biohit Biotech (Hefei) Co.
Ltd. The new IFRS 10 standard was not fulfilled on the closing dates of 31
March 2015 in the way referred to in the standard and the shareholders'
agreement, and the investment is not, therefore, presented in the balance sheet
drawn up according to the new standards.
The management estimates that the joint control referred to in IFRS 10 and in
the shareholders' agreement will be achieved during 2015. From that point on,
the joint venture will be consolidated in Biohit's consolidated financial
statements using the equity method.
All the figures in the interim report have been rounded up or down, due to
which the sums of figures may deviate from the sum total presented.
Figures of the reporting period are unaudited.
