AcouSort AB today announced the signing of an amendment to its license and distribution agreement with the leading blood-gas analyzer company, Werfen. Under the amendment, Werfen will prepay minimum royalties for 2027 and 2028. Together with Werfen’s regular 2026 minimum royalty, the total sum payable to AcouSort in early 2026 amounts to approximately USD 1.3 million.
“Based on our current cash position and this prepayment together with Werfen’s regular 2026 minimum royalties alone will fund AcouSort into 2027,” said AcouSort’s CEO Dr. Torsten Freltoft.
The original agreement was signed in spring 2018. Using AcouSort acoustofluidic background technology, the parties jointly developed the solution now implemented in Werfen’s groundbreaking GEM Premier 7000 system for point-of-care blood gas analysis.
The hemolysis detection in GEM Premier 7000 is based upon patented acoustofluidic technology for plasma separation, combined with photometric determination. In just 45 seconds, the GEM Premier 7000 detects hemolysis, while delivering a complete menu of blood-gas results (pH, pO2, pO2, sodium, potassium, ionized calcium, chloride, glucose, lactate, hematocrit, total hemoglobin, total bilirubin and CO-Oximetry).
No other terms of the License and Distribution Agreement with Werfen have been changed. In terms of liquidity, the change takes effect within Q1, while revenue recognition occurs according to applicable accounting principles.
