Prolight Diagnostics, developer of the digital point-of-care platform Psyros™, announced today that the company’s 2023 year-end release contains an understated claim on the UK tax authority related to research and development. The revised estimate of Prolight’s claim is approximately SEK 5.6 million higher than previously reported. In the annual report for 2023, which will be published on 23 April 2024, Prolight will therefore report a number of central items at higher estimated amounts than before.
Prolight’s British subsidiary Psyros Diagnostics has reported an understated estimate of the company’s tax claim for 2023 that falls short of the higher estimated amount by approximately SEK 5,639,000. The mistake was discovered during the work to complete Prolight’s annual report for 2023.
“It is unfortunate that this was not discovered earlier so that our year-end report would have been more accurate. However, we are pleased that the revised estimate improves the results for 2023,” said Prolight’s CEO Ulf Bladin
Prolight’s annual report will be published on 23 April 2024. The following summary of the group’s income statement and balance sheet as of 31/12 2023 shows how the correction affects the group’s key figures.
