News Explained
Prenetics said July was its first month of positive Adjusted Free Cash Flow, but that non-IFRS measure is defined as net cash from operating activities plus net fundings under the General Catalyst Customer Value Fund facility; the disclosure therefore does not establish positive operating cash flow alone.

NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prenetics Global Limited (NASDAQ: PRE) (“Prenetics” or the “Company”), a leading consumer health company and parent of the AI-native direct-to-consumer wellness brand IM8, co-founded by David Beckham, today reported its second quarter 2026 financial results. The complete results are presented in Prenetics’ Q2 2026 Letter to Shareholders (the "Shareholder Letter"), which includes all financial tables, together with an accompanying Q2 2026 Investor Presentation (the "Investor Presentation"), each dated August 18, 2026.
Danny Yeung, Chief Executive Officer of Prenetics and Co-Founder of IM8, said: "Twenty months ago, IM8 did not exist. This quarter it carried Prenetics to a sixth consecutive record, July became the biggest month in our history, and consolidated Adjusted Free Cash Flow turned positive for the first time and we expect it to remain positive from here. This is the single most important milestone we have been tracking since before the brand launched, arriving faster than I believed possible. Today we are raising full-year total revenue guidance to
"And beginning this quarter, we are changing how we report. With twenty months of data behind us, we are opening the books: a detailed Shareholder Letter, a full Investor Presentation with our monthly cohort economics and independent third-party card data, and a live earnings stream where we take questions directly. The reason is simple — a business compounding this fast deserves to be examined, not summarized, and we would rather show you the machine than describe it. Everything is explained, cohort by cohort, in our Shareholder Letter and Investor Presentation — I encourage every investor to read it.”
All financial tables, monthly cohort economics, customer acquisition metrics, independent third-party card data, and management’s full discussion and outlook are contained in the Shareholder Letter and the Investor Presentation, which investors are encouraged to review in full.

Basis of Presentation
Figures for prior periods have been re-presented in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations (“IFRS 5”). As part of the Group’s strategic repositioning to focus its resources and capital allocation on its core consumer health and prevention businesses, the Group has divested or exited certain non-core businesses and investments, including ACT Genomics, Europa and Insighta.
In June 2025, the Group determined that ACT Genomics Holdings Company Limited (“ACT Genomics”) met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and a discontinued operation, following the signing of a definitive sale and purchase agreement with Delta Electronics, Inc. and its results have been excluded from the Group’s continuing operations thereafter. The divestment of ACT Genomics was completed on October 1, 2025.
The Group also completed the divestiture of substantially all of the assets of its Europa business in January 2026 and determined that Europa met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and a discontinued operation. Accordingly, Europa’s results are included in the Group’s financial results only up to the date of completion of the divestiture and are excluded from the Group’s continuing operations thereafter.
In February 2026, the Group completed the disposal of its remaining equity interest in Insighta Holdings Limited (“Insighta”). Accordingly, the Group’s share of results from Insighta is included only up to the date of completion of the disposal. The disposal of remaining equity interest in Insighta was completed on February 13, 2026.
In accordance with IFRS 5, the results of discontinued operations are presented separately from the Group’s continuing operations (comprising IM8 and CircleDNA) in the unaudited consolidated statements of loss and other comprehensive loss, and comparative figures for those statements have been re-presented accordingly.
The financial information presented in this press release is unaudited.
Unaudited Non-IFRS Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the Company is providing the following non-IFRS measures: Adjusted Free Cash Flow. These non-IFRS financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by IFRS and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-IFRS financial measures are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating results and trends and in facilitating period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s performance.
Adjusted Free Cash Flow, a non-IFRS measure, is defined as net cash from operating activities plus net fundings under the General Catalyst Customer Value Fund facility.
In addition, other companies, including companies in the same industry, may not use the same non-IFRS measures or may calculate these metrics in a different manner than management, or may use other financial measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of these non-IFRS measures as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
