INVESTMENT OVERVIEW

SMART MATRIX LTD

Healing without a skin graft


INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY

USCIM Fund XLVI Smart Matrix LLC

MEMBERSHIP UNITS $14,000,000


COMPANY AND PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Smart Matrix (SML) is focused on the commercialization of Smart Matrix®, which is designed to treat full thickness skin wounds by encouraging the growth of skin cells and new blood vessels, critical to healthy healing, all without a skin graft.

SML was spun out of the Restoration of Appearance and Function Trust (“RAFT”) a medical research charity based at Mount Vernon hospital, Middlesex, UK and has an exclusive, world-wide license to Smart Matrix® and first right of refusal to license other products developed by RAFT that are based on the underlying technology and owned by Smart Matrix® Intellectual Property Limited (“SMIP”), a member of the RAFT group.

MARKET SIZE

The initial target market for Smart Matrix® is acute surgical wounds, primarily those associated with surgery for skin cancers; more specifically the healing of excision wounds post-surgery for the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). These wounds are common, frequently hard to close and are often in areas of the body where achieving a functionally and cosmetically acceptable result is paramount.

SML has estimated, based on published data and 20 structured interviews with clinicians in the EU and US (conducted by Apex Healthcare Consulting ), that up to 95% of NMSC tumours involve a surgical procedure; with over 20% resulting in the use of a skin graft.

Under assumptions that SML regards as conservative, peak sales of Smart Matrix® for NMSCs have the potential to reach 1.3 million units per year in 2033. The Company estimates that this would see Smart Matrix® being used in the treatment of 4% of tumours or less than 15% of then estimated addressable market, which would result in a projected annual turnover of over $1B.

The primary competition for Smart Matrix® in its target market of NMSC excision is a skin graft.

THE OPPORTUNITY

PRODUCT

Smart Matrix® is a sponge-like biological scaffold designed to achieve healing of full thickness wounds without a skin graft. It is a matrix composed principally of fibrin (made from fibrinogen and thrombin), a natural product of the healing process, and alginate, a product derived from seaweed which is widely used in wound care products.

The technology encourages the growth of skin cells and blood vessels into a wound to aid skin regeneration. This process helps the body close skin-loss injuries, where the deepest layer of the skin (the dermis) is lost.

Transaction Description: Seeking to raise ~$14.0 Million in Equity to deliver a commercially viable device to heal without a skin graft.
