DXS International* 10p £4.8m (AQSE:DXSP)
Update on measures taken by the Company in response to COVID-19 and confirms that during this unprecedented interruption to business, DXS is continuing to deliver support of its solutions to frontline primary care doctors and nurses.
Being an accredited NHS solutions provider, DXS has well-established business continuity and disaster recovery protocols in place. These were triggered during the early stages of the COVID-19 outbreak and at this point, 95% percent of staff, both in the United Kingdom and South Africa are successfully working from home and the company remains fully operational. DXS has supported national efforts to combat the pandemic by launching a clinical decision support toolkit via our DXS Point of Care solution for COVID-19 treatment and information. This is being used by doctors and nurses in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
Implemented support process designed to help clinicians access the Clinical Decision Support solution while working from home. The pandemic has placed a sharp focus on the necessity for health authorities to strongly consider digital health solutions such as those provided by DXS Point of Care and in particular the new ExpertCare solution for the management of hypertension, which has been identified as a high risk factor for those patients contracting COVID19. “Although it is clear that the current situation has impacted our anticipated revenue growth in the current financial year, we are on track to match our previous years revenue. We are fortunate to have a recurring revenue stream that has enabled the business to continue delivering our service with minimum disruption to staff. Some product launches, ExpertCare, MyVytalCare and CompleteCare have seen delays given the NHSs focus on COVID-19, and it is not possible to predict the point at which new growth will begin. However with cash in the bank and sound products we remain optimistic about the future growth of the business and will update the market as soon as possible once there is more clarity on the situation.”

Directa Plus 81.5p £49.7m (AIM:DCTA)
The producer and supplier of graphene nanoplatelets based products for use in consumer and industrial markets, announces that the Company has been granted an EU-wide patent covering the use of its graphene based Grafysorber® technology for treating waters and sludges contaminated by hydrocarbons. Grafysorber® is sustainably produced, non-flammable and reusable, with the adsorbed hydrocarbons recoverable.
The field of application granted in the patent covers produced waters, refinery waters, and, in general, any kind of wastewater which contains relatively low but still dangerous amount of hydrocarbons. Such waters are generally very difficult to treat and often expensive and complex, involving multiple step processes that in most cases must be specific for each type of hydrocarbon. By contrast, the Company's Grafysorber® adsorbant offers an effective and quick one-step process, that simply mixes the water to be treated with Grafysorber® and then allows the contaminants to be recovered.
