Company Description InnovaDerma is a fast growing company with
proven products and brands in hair loss and
beauty. Its products are backed by evidence based
research, independent studies on efficacy, and a
large testimonial pool from its client base and
experts around the globe. Since taking on the
Skinny Tan self tanning brand in 2015 InnovaDerma
has increased revenue from this brand ten-fold.
2017 will see the full benefit of new distribution
agreements and we expect to see the launch of the
Leimo ‘Headmaster’ hair regeneration helmet
which has the potential to be the leading product
in its class.

Fat cheques for a skinny tan
InnovaDerma may not be a household name but its flagship brand Skinny
Tan is making a splash in the beauty world, and since hitting the shelves of
Superdrug in February 2016, became the number one tanning brand by
revenue in July 2016 across the nationwide health and beauty chain’s 800
stores. Having come to light as a ‘Dragons’ Den’ investee company, the
InnovaDerma team has given the brand a new lease of life, with a number of
high profile distribution agreements across Australia, Europe, Asia and most
recently North America.
This commercial success has been borne out in recent financial results with
Group revenue growing to A$8.5m in the year ending June 2016 vs just
A$1.05m in FY2015 reflecting a 10-fold growth in revenue growth from Skinny
Tan since its acquisition in May 2015.
InnovaDerma also derives revenues from its Leimo brand of hair regeneration
products (clinically proven hair loss treatment for men and women) and the
entire range is being refreshed to coincide with the expected FDA approval of
the company’s ‘Headmaster’ LED and laser helmet which is destined for the
home use market.
Our forecasts for the year ending June 2017 (to be reported in GBP) are
projecting a 53% increase in revenues on a constant currency basis driven by
the growing footprint of Skinny Tan. We have not assigned any growth to
Leimo in this year. We also see improving margins driven not only by scale but
also by the transfer of a significant amount of production to the UK which is
due to result in a reduction in freight and logistics costs. Our forecasts suggest
a 188% increase in operating profit to £699k and a 173% increase in EPS to
4.92p. Cashflow is likely to lag behind somewhat as the Company invests in
working capital and inventory to support the strong rate of growth, but the
recent fund raising activity should see the company through to operational
cash generation.
The shares are currently on a FYJun17 P/E multiple of c.30x and a price to sales
multiple of 2.56x and therefore not without expectations of some success.
However the Company has so far proved its ability to find and create winning
brands. In terms of the plentiful recent acquisition activity in the space this is
about mid-range with some parties paying up to 4 or 5 times revenues for
niche brands. The multiples are not out of line with the quoted peer group
either and a PEG analysis suggests that the shares offer good value for the
earnings growth we are projecting in FY2017. With plenty of growth drivers to
look forward to in 2018 we believe a share price of over 207p on an 18 month
view is achievable.

1. Background InnovaDerma’s operating Company InnovaDerma Aus & NZ Pty was formed
in August 2013 and shortly after acquired the global distribution rights for the
Leimo Hair-loss System for the self-treatment of both male and the more
neglected female markets. Later that year it went on to acquire the Australian
and New Zealand distribution rights for the Pollogen non-invasive, aesthetic
skin-care treatments from Pollogen Ltd, an Israeli Company, amongst one of
the largest and most well-known companies operating in the clinically proven
anti-ageing sector.
The holding Company, InnovaDerma PLC, which is the listed vehicle, was
incorporated in September 2014 and went on to acquire the Assets of PROS
International Company Limited, in an all share deal which effectively meant
that the Leimo product range and associated IP and Trademarks became
100% owned.
In May 2015, Innovaderma acquired Skinny Tan Pty for AU$50,000, a
developer, manufacturer and distributor of self-tanning products. We see this
as an opportunistic acquisition given that the brand had already generated
AU$1.3m of revenues and broken even in the year to June 2014. Since coming
under ownership, InnovaDerma has grown Skinny Tan revenues to over $8m.
In December 2015, InnovaDerma sold 20% of Skinny Tan (the majority of
which went to the founders) for a nominal consideration. We understand the
Board of InnovaDerma has resolved to buy back this stake. (The Board has
since bought 9% and paid for that and now owns 89% of Skinny Tan).
The Company was listed on the GXG Main Quote in London in March 2015
and on the Marche Libre of the Euronext Paris SA in May of the same year.
The GXG Main Quote market has since ceased operations. InnovaDerma

an application to delist the shares after which London will remain the only
listing.
2. Valuation
i. Listed comparators InnovaDerma is of course relatively small in comparison to the personal
products giants that have been hoovering up fast growing niche brands of
late, a description that Skinny Tan certainly fits. We have compiled a peer
group of relevant comparators operating in the same space as InnovaDerma.

ii. Acquisition Activity
We highlight some acquisitions of recent years which we believe are of
relevance to InnovaDerma. Many of the acquisitions take place at a slightly
later stage than that at which InnovaDerma finds itself, but given the rapid
growth SkinnyTan has enjoyed, and its recent progress in the United States,
it is certainly a brand that should catch the eye of the larger corporates.
Acquisition activity has been rife in the sector as the majors fight to pick up
fast growing niche brands. In terms of financial details many companies
choose to play their cards close to their chests but we detail some below
where we have been able to derive valuation metrics.
• Just last month Estée Lauder purchased Too Faced cosmetics – one
of the fastest growing cosmetic brands in the US for $1.4bn against
expected revenues of $270m, a multiple of over five times.
• In October this year Estée Lauder acquired BECCA Cosmetics from
Luxury Brand Partners, a youth focussed brand, with revenues of circa

$80m at for an estimated consideration of $200m according to Forbes
implying a multiple of 2.5x.
• This summer, Japan’s Shiseido agreed to acquire Gurwitch Products
whose brands include Laura Mercier and Revive. The estimated
acquisition consideration was $260m against revenues of $175m, a
multiple of 1.5x.
• Private Equity monies have recently (May 2016) been in invested into
Paula’s Choice which sells skin care and cosmetics products online.
The Company also has a forum called Beautypedia for reviewing
products from other brands. Paula’s Choice’s revenue hovers around
$70 million in net sales with industry sources claiming the transaction
is valued at roughly $275 million or nearly 4x sales.
iii. Conclusion Since joining the London main market shares in InnovaDerma have
performed well, up 86% since admission. The shares are currently on
a FYJun17 P/E multiple of c. 30x and a price to sales multiple of 2.56x.
This is in the middle of the range of the acquisition multiples detailed
above and given the growth rates achieved so far, it is arguable that a
predator may seek to pay towards the top end of that range. These
are not small multiples in the context of the listed peer group but
similarly they are not out of the range either. On a PEG ratio of 0.13x
this suggests that the shares offer good value for the earnings growth
we are projecting in FY2017.
We do not have forecasts for FY2018, but this is a year where that
should see the first full year of the margin impact from the new
production arrangements, the first full year of the US deals
announced in October (with hopefully more to come) and the

commercial launch of the new Leimo range. A further 40% uplift in
EPS does therefore not seem unreasonable. A 30x PE multiple would
equate to a FY2018E PEG ratio of 0.75x and a share price of 207p.
InnovaDerma needs to prove it can execute the sales growth and
margin improvements required to achieve this but on an 18 month
view this is not an unreasonable valuation expectation. The success it
has had in promoting the Skinny Tan brand and gaining prime retail
exposure suggests that this is a team that knows the magic sauce
ingredients behind a successful personal care recipe, and can get it
into all the best restaurants!
3. Key product ranges
i. Skinny Tan
The Skinny Tan brand may seem familiar to some readers due to its successful
appearance on BBC Two’s Dragon’s Den back in August 2013. Its founders
Kate Cotton and Louise Ferguson, had set up just eighteen months previously,
and launched with Australia’s largest pharmaceutical chain by March 2012,
racking up A$920k of sales in the first six months according to the pitch
delivered in the den.
Skinny Tan is an all natural self-tan containing active slimming agent
(dissipating cellulite) with naturally derived skin smoothing actives to tan,
contour and reduce the visible appearance of cellulite. As the founder’s
mentioned in their pitch, smoothing creams and self-tanning products are
large markets in their own right but as stand-alone products would often
interfere with one another. We understand that the naturally derived tanning
agent Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) does not have the same overpowering smell
often associated with the synthesised version in competitor products, and
that it is gentler on the skin.

in EPS in 2018 does

One of the Brand Leaders in self tanning, St Tropez was turning over £20.7m
prior to the £62.5m takeover by PZ Cussons in 2010. In the US, IBIS Market
Research estimates the self tanning industry to be worth some $300m. In
terms of slimming creams, the UK market has been estimated at some £30m.
Skinny Tan is showing real signs of being able to dislodge St Tropez from the
top spot.
The key selling points of Skinny Tan can be summarised as natural, non-sticky
and non-orange, the latter two being common complaints about competing
products. And of course, the key message of the brand is that it makes you
look slimmer. Independent studies in the UK showed almost 90% users of
Skinny Tan believed that using the product made them “feel good” about
their body image, and whilst much of this could be attributed to having a tan
the rising popularity of the brand is evident with its retail success and
popularity on social media where there is a fast growing community on
Facebook (over 200,000 likes) and 10,000+ on Instagram.
Skinny Tan could
eventually dislodge
St Tropez as the
number one self-
tanning brand
(acquired for
£62.5m in 2010)
It has a number of
differentiating
selling points…
Social media and celebrity endorsements such as “Made in Chelsea’s” Lucy
Watson are key elements to the marketing plan which the Board believes will
generate superior returns to traditional advertising. Since coming under the
InnovaDerma umbrella, we understand that Skinny Tan has averaged in
excess of a 3.8 to 1 return in revenue for each US$1 invested in advertising.
Spend increased from under AUD 90,000 per month in the period to 30 June
2015 to over AUD 175,000 in the period to 31 December 2015 translating into
high growth in the recently reported FY June 2016 numbers where skin and
beauty products sales leapt nearly 60 fold to A$7.5m, albeit from a low base.
Skinny Tan is sold through a combination of direct online sales and retail
outlets. Skinny Tan, launched in Superdrug in February 2016, is now stocked
in UK stores nationwide and since achieved being the No.1 selling tanning
brand by revenue in July 2016. We understand Superdrug has significantly
increased the space available to Skinny Tan products in store commencing
from Feb many 2017. During FYJun16 other major retail deals included Olive
Young where Skinny Tan is now stocked across 700 stores in Korea, and
Chemist Warehouse in Australia which distributes the product across 320
stores. Over FY2016 the Skinny Tan brand has grown from 14 to 25 products,
with a strong emphasis on product development to increase shelf space and
cater for multiple international markets. Product development continues
with further Skinny Tan brand extensions expected to be rolled out soon.

At the year end, the Company had 2,500 retail points (FY2015: 250) in seven
countries and this trend has continued into the current year with the signing
in October of retail and e-tailer distribution deals for Skinny Tan in the United
States. Skinny Tan was named Best New Product Introduction at Skin Care &
Bath ECRM in the United States in June 2016.
In terms of production, InnovaDerma announced in October that it is to move
a significant part of its production to the UK, from Australia and has appointed
leading skincare and haircare manufacturer Prestige Personal Care to
undertake production of InnovaDerma's products, which will initially be
distributed to the UK market but with plans to extend this to other global
markets. Production in the UK is expected to begin this month and is expected
to have a materially positive impact on operating margins due to lower freight
and logistics costs. This move will also reduce currency exposure.
ii. Leimo The Leimo range currently on sale incorporates the world’s first hand held
laser comb using Laser and LED to prevent the progression and recurrence of
hair thinning conditions by slowing down the build-up of Dihydrotestosterone
(DHT) in the scalp. It is a clinically proven device showing 92% success rate in
stopping hair loss & re-growing hair in Independent clinical studies. In a study
at Yeungnam University Medical Centre hair concentration was shown to
increase from 102.77 hairs per cm2 to 132.55 cm2 after 16 weeks with daily
usage for ten minutes. The improvements are clearly visible in the graphic
below.
InnovaDerma’s
products are in over
2,500 retail points.

Whilst the technology clearly has consumer appeal, Innovaderma has decided
to take it to the next level and has developed the Laser & LED ‘Headmaster’
Helmet.
Source: InnovaDerma PLC
Rather than manually combing the hair several times per week with the comb
based product, the user will be able to wear the helmet whilst continuing to
carry out their day to day functions. What is more, the usage time compared
to the comb is expected to be approximately halved. This is a step change in
user friendliness and we would therefore expect an improvement in user
compliance and therefore results. The Company is targeting FDA approval
and product launch in H2 CY2017. There are competitors in the market but
many are not FDA registered and the Headmaster is being positioned as the
first FDA registered product at an affordable price point. Prices for the closest
competitor in the US start at $895.
InnovaDerma will be relaunching and enhancing its range of consumable ‘wet
products’ that supplement the devices. These comprise high quality hair and
scalp topical products which promote hair volume, scalp and hair condition
and in the case of Leimo Instant Hair™ fibres that bond to existing hair and
instantly give thinning hair the boost of fuller looking hair in seconds. The wet
products are designed to provide a high level of recurring revenues with the
helmet acting as something of a Trojan horse in terms of capturing a loyal
customer base. As a result of exclusive agreements with major distributors to
create a comprehensive, world-wide distribution network for Leimo,
InnovDerma is well positioned to pursue its target markets once the
refreshed product range is launched.
Even though management is not currently devoting much attention to
growing the sales of Leimo, until the helmet is launched, the existing range of
haircare products still made a meaningful contribution to revenues in
FYJun16 of A$951.6k. Leimo has customers in some forty countries.
According to Kerastem’s analysis of the market, the annual hair loss market
size is circa $7bn growing at a cagr of 4.8%, with roughly a third of the market
being accounted for by topical treatments.

4. Recent results and current trading
In October, InnovaDerma put out final results for the year ending June 2016.
This was the first year with a full contribution from Skinny Tan, a period which
saw the product being launched in Superdrug which now stocks the range
across its stores nationwide. This was one of the deals that resulted in a ten
fold expansion in the number of selling points across which InnovaDerma’s
products are distributed, contributing to the eight fold increase in revenues
to A$8.4m. Gross profit also rose significantly from A$0.7m to A$4.8m, a
margin of 57% and the Company recorded a maiden full year pre-tax profit of
A$0.5m. Operating cash outflows halved to $421.8k remaining negative
largely due to the A$0.8m investment in inventory made to assist with the
Company’s growth.
The Company ended the period with cash of $207k and non current
borrowings of A$1.1m made up primarily of directors’ loans. Subsequent to
the results announcement, the balance sheet received a further cash
injection via a £0.54m placing ($c. A$0.9m) priced at 70p and taken up by new
institutional shareholders. This was supplemented by a placing in December
of £800k at 110p in order to build inventories ahead of its continuing sales
drive.
In terms of outlook, the statement made reference to the entry into the US,
planned extensions to the Skinny Tan brand, the focus on expanding the
distribution and retail network (both physical stores and e-tailers) in new and
existing territories, and product development with regard to new and highly
effective products in hair care, hair loss treatment and skin rejuvenation for
release in 2017.

5. Forecasts
i. P&L We have taken the translated pound sterling accounts in the Company’s
corporate presentation as the baseline for our forecasts and given the
relatively wide geographic spread of the Company’s revenues have deemed
it reasonable to assume constant exchange rates. Given that the
‘Headmaster’ has not been launched as yet, we are assuming flat revenues
for haircare products for FYJun17. On skin and beauty products, we are
projecting sales growth of 60%, which should be achievable for several
reasons: 1) First full year contributions from Superdrug, Olive Young and
Chemist Warehouse; 2) Increased brand awareness and growing support
from Superdrug who are now dedicating additional shelf space to the range.
3) Extension of the product range; 4) and New distribution deals in the US
with GNC Holdings (655/6,000 stores initially), Amazon subsidiary Quidsi, and
Jet.com, a subsidiary of Wal-Mart.
In aggregate, we are forecasting a 53% increase in Group revenue to £6.6m.
In FY2017 the Group will benefit from just over half a year of production at
its UK based manufacturing partner which should be a significant boost to
gross margins. We are assuming a 760 basis point increase in gross margin to
65%. As InnovaDerma expands in size and geographies we see marketing
costs nudging towards 30% of total revenues (from 27%) and admin expenses
and wage costs rising just over £1.5m. The aggregate result is a 188% increase
in operating profit to £699k (after transaction and listing costs of £160k) and
a 173% increase in earnings per share to 4.92p.
ii. Cashflow and Balance Sheet
However we expect operating cashflow to lag behind as the Company invests
in inventory and does more business with blue chip retailers who can have
demanding payment terms. We anticipate a total operating cash outflow of

Company ending the financial year with a cash balance of £249k up from
£131k. This would still leave the Company with borrowings of £700k but
looking ahead we would hope that some of the working capital movement
would unwind, and that profitability would continue to grow.

9. Research Disclaimer
This document should not be relied upon as being an impartial or objective assessment of the subject matter and is not deemed to be
“independent research” for the purposes of the Financial Conduct Authority rules. As a consequence the research (a) has not been prepared
in accordance with legal requirements designed to promote the independence of investment research; and (b) is not subject to any
prohibition on dealing ahead of the dissemination of investment research (although Hybridan does impose restrictions on personal account
dealing in the run up to publishing research as set out in our Conflicts of Interest Policy).
Hybridan LLP is involved in providing other financial services to InnovaDerma PLC (the “Company”) and as a result Hybridan LLP may have
responsibilities that conflict with the interests of the persons who receive this document.
This document has been issued by Hybridan LLP for information purposes only and should not be construed in any circumstances as an
offer to sell or solicitation of any offer to buy any security or other financial instrument, nor shall it, or the fact of its distribution, form the
basis of, or be relied upon in connection with, any contract relating to such action. This document has no regard for the specific investment
objectives, financial situation or needs of any specific entity. Hybridan LLP and/or connected persons may, from time to time, effect
transactions in any investment or related investment mentioned herein and may provide financial services to the issuers of such
investments. The information contained herein is based on materials and sources that we believe to be reliable, however, Hybridan LLP
makes no representation or warranty, either express or implied, in relation to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of the information
contained herein. Opinions expressed are our current opinions as of the date appearing on this material only. Any opinions expressed are
subject to change without notice and Hybridan LLP is under no obligation to update the information contained herein. None of Hybridan

this document.
In the UK, this report is directed at and is for distribution only to persons who (i) fall within Article 19(1) (persons who have professional
experience in matters relating to investments) or Article 49(2) (a) to (d) (high net worth companies, unincorporated associations, etc) of the
Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotions) Order 2005 (as amended) or (ii) are Professional Clients or Eligible
Counterparties of Hybridan LLP (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”). This report must not be acted on or
relied upon by persons in the UK who are not relevant persons.
Neither this report nor any copy or part thereof may be distributed in any other jurisdictions where its distribution may be restricted by law
and persons into whose possession this report comes should inform themselves about, and observe any such restrictions. Distribution of

Investments in general involve some degree of risk, including the risk of capital loss. The services, securities and investments discussed in
this document may not be available to or suitable for all investors. Investors should make their own investment decisions based upon their
own financial objectives and financial resources and, if in any doubt, should seek advice from an investment advisor. Past performance is
not necessarily a guide to future performance and an investor may not get back the amount originally invested. Where investment is made
in currencies other than the investor’s base currency, movements in exchange rates will have an effect on the value, either favourable or
unfavourable. Levels and bases for taxation may change. When Hybridan LLP comments on AIM or ISDX Markets shares investors should be
aware that because the rules for those markets are less demanding than the Official List of the London Stock Exchange the risks are higher.
Furthermore, the marketability of these shares is often restricted.

from, any of the companies referred to in this document. Accordingly, information may be available to Hybridan LLP that is not reflected in
this material and Hybridan LLP may have acted upon or used the information prior to or immediately following its publication. In addition,
Hybridan LLP, the partners, directors and employees thereof and/or any connected persons may have an interest in the securities, warrants,
futures, options, derivatives or other financial instrument of any of the companies referred to in this document and may from time-to-time
add or dispose of such interests. Neither the whole nor any part of this material may be duplicated in any form or by any means. Neither
should any of this material be redistributed or disclosed to anyone without the prior consent of Hybridan LLP. Hybridan LLP is Authorised
and Regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and is a member of the London Stock Exchange.
Dissemination of Research: Reports are made available to all relevant recipients at the same time. Issuers may in certain circumstances be
permitted to review investment analysts’ investment research prior to publication for review of factual accuracy only. Investment research
