PARIS (Reuters) -French artificial heart maker Carmat reported full year revenue of 2.8 million euros ($3 million), missing its target after supply issues disrupted the company's production ramp-up, sending its shares down 6%. The company had warned in September that it would miss a target of full-year sales of between 10 million and 13 million euros after it reported first-half revenue of only 600,000 euros. Carmat, which survived a cash crunch in mid-October, said it would soon launch a capital increase, estimated to raise at least 50 million euros ($55 million), to ensure it had enough financing for the next 12 months.
Carmat warned late Monday that supply issues meant it would miss its full-year sales target and it could run out of cash by the end of October, sending its shares down 27% on Tuesday. Air Liquide said in response to Reuters questions its Carmat holding is held through its Air Liquide Venture Capital (ALIAD) which was set up in 2013. "ALIAD entered the capital of Carmat in April 2014, in the frame of ALIAD strategy to develop industrial partnerships between technology companies and the Air Liquide Group, in 3 sectors: Climate tech, Healthtech and Digital," the company said.
The world's largest planemaker holds a stake of more than 11% in Carmat and has invested around 50 million euros ($52.8 million) in the company, an Airbus spokesperson said in response to Reuters questions. Carmat warned late Monday that supply issues meant it would miss its full-year sales target and it could run out of cash by the end of October, sending its shares down 27% on Tuesday. Airbus says its involvement in Carmat dates back to creation of GIE Carmat in 1993 by Alain Carpentier and Matra Defense - a company which was acquired by one of French predecessor companies later merged into EADS predecessor Airbus.
