  • Xeros reports reduced adjusted EBITDA loss of £4.4 million for 2024, with revenue at £200,000.

  • Technical verification underway with major washing machine manufacturers for Laundry Care technology.

  • Company ends April with £1.4 million in cash, maintaining confidence in commercial progress.

Xeros Technology Group PLC (LSE:XSG) has expressed confidence in its future outlook as the company continues to make headway in its commercialisation strategy. The developer of sustainable laundry technologies reported a narrowed loss for the 2024 financial year, underscoring a period of operational progress.

For the year, the company recorded revenue of £200,000 and an adjusted EBITDA loss of £4.4 million—an improvement compared to previous periods. Xeros noted that the results reflected continuing efforts to bring its Laundry Care technology to market, as well as disciplined cost control.

A key development during the period has been the technical verification processes currently underway with several of the world’s largest washing machine manufacturers. These verifications are an essential precursor to potential Joint Development Agreements (JDAs), which would mark a significant step forward in Xeros’ efforts to embed its technology into large-scale commercial products.

The company stated it held £1.4 million in cash reserves at the end of April 2024, providing financial support for its ongoing commercial and operational initiatives.

Commenting on the performance, analyst Max Hayes from Cavendish said the results were "in line with expectations" and pointed to the company's technical and operational progress as indicators of longer-term value potential.

Xeros’ Laundry Care technology, aimed at reducing the environmental impact of washing machines, has been central to its strategic direction. The technology is designed to reduce water and energy consumption as well as microfibre pollution.

The company did not provide specific guidance on the timing of any commercial agreements, but said its engagement with industry players remained active and constructive.

Xeros continues to focus on licensing and partnership-led growth, targeting original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) as the primary channel for adoption. The company’s management indicated that progress in technical validation is an essential milestone in securing future licensing deals and revenue streams.
