Micro-X Raises Fresh Capital to Accelerate Medical Imaging Commercialisation

Source: Kapitales Research

Highlights:

  • Micro-X has secured AU$6.18 million in new capital through a share placement undertaken with professional and sophisticated investors.
  • Strategic partner Billion Prima increased its stake to 8.6 per cent, committing AU$3.0 million to the raise.
  • The capital will be used to support medical imaging commercial initiatives, expand manufacturing capacity, and strengthen the company’s working capital position.

Capital Raise Strengthens Funding Position

Micro-X Limited (ASX: MX1) announced it has received commitments totalling AU$6.18 million through a placement priced at AU$0.08 per share. The placement was well received by both new and existing shareholders and executed within the company’s available issuance capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

The issue price was set at the company’s most recent trading level, representing no discount to the last traded share price and a modest discount to recent volume weighted average prices. Shares issued as part of the placement will hold the same rights as existing ordinary shares, with settlement and trading expected to occur in late December 2025.

Strategic Partner Deepens Commitment

A key feature of the capital raise was the increased participation from security development partner Billion Prima. The group committed AU$3.0 million to the placement, lifting its ownership in Micro-X to approximately 8.6 per cent following completion. As part of the investment, Billion Prima will have the right to nominate a director to the board, subject to customary approvals.

Management described the increased investment as a strong endorsement of Micro-X’s technology platform and its collaboration with Billion Prima, particularly in the development of baggage and parcel scanning solutions that incorporate the company’s proprietary NEX technology.

Focus on Medical Imaging Growth

Proceeds from the placement will primarily be used to accelerate Micro-X’s medical imaging strategy. This includes expanding commercial activities for the Rover mobile X-ray platform, which has recorded increasing sales momentum following a major order from Malaysia and the signing of a supply agreement with a large United States healthcare group.

Funds will also be allocated toward scaling up manufacturing capacity for proprietary X-ray tubes and high-voltage generators. The funding is designed to underpin anticipated increases in Rover sales volumes, support the scheduled 2026 rollout of the Billion Prima baggage and parcel scanner, and progress the Head CT system toward market readiness.

Advancing Head CT and Near-Term Catalysts

Micro-X is also directing capital toward the productisation of its Head CT system ahead of planned in-hospital human imaging trials expected to commence in early 2026. The upcoming trials are viewed as a key milestone in advancing regulatory approval pathways and supporting future commercialisation. The company continues to benefit from substantial non-dilutive funding across its development programs through government grants and strategic partnerships.

Management highlighted several near-term catalysts, including potential large Rover sales opportunities, the commencement of Head CT trials, and ongoing discussions to monetise security technology assets.

Outlook

With additional funding secured, Micro-X enters the next phase with enhanced balance sheet strength and increased capacity to execute its commercial and development priorities. Investor attention is likely to remain focused on Rover sales conversion, progress in Head CT trials, and developments around security technology partnerships as the company works toward cash flow stability and longer-term growth.
