Oslo, Norway, 11 August 2021: Photocure ASA (OSE:PHO) today reported
Hexvix[®]/Cysview[®] revenues of NOK 88.9 million in the second quarter of 2021
(Q2 2020: NOK 53.5), and EBITDA of NOK 5.8 million (NOK -8.9 million), driven by
growth in the U.S. segment and the continued successful launch in European
markets reacquired in 2020. Despite business challenges due to ongoing surges of
Covid-19 and its variants in certain territories, Photocure plans to increase
investment in commercial activities in the second half of 2021 to capitalize on
improving access to care and to further penetrate the large potential market
opportunity for Hexvix/Cysview in its direct global markets.

"Photocure achieved year over year Hexvix/Cysview revenue growth of 66% in the
second quarter of 2021, driven by a recovery from the comparable period in 2020
when Covid-19 first surged, our reacquisition of the Hexvix business in
continental Europe, and our ability to capitalize on improving healthcare access
in several of our commercial territories. Excluding the impact of negative
foreign exchange, product sales were up 87% over the second quarter last year.
We continued to increase our penetration into the bladder cancer treatment
market, with U.S. unit volume rising 19% sequentially, from the first quarter to
the second quarter of this year. In May, we achieved the highest number of units
ever sold per month in our U.S. business, and in Europe, unit volume in the
second quarter nearly returned to the same level seen in the 2019 period, with
renewed sales activity in priority growth markets such as France and the UK,"
says Daniel Schneider, President & Chief Executive Officer of Photocure.

Photocure reported total group revenues of NOK 90.4 million in the second
quarter of 2021 (NOK 53.7 million), and an EBITDA* of NOK 5.8 million (NOK -8.9
million). Hexvix/Cysview revenues were NOK 88.9 million (NOK 53.5 million)
following the successful transition of the reacquired European territories and
unit sales growth of 53% in the U.S. EBIT ended at NOK -0.2 million (NOK -14.2
million) and the cash balance at the end of the second quarter 2021 was NOK
340.2 million.

The installed base of rigid cystoscopes in the U.S. was 288 at the end of the
second quarter, an increase of 42 units or 17% since the same period in 2020.
Blue Light Cystoscopy in the surveillance setting is a key priority for
Photocure in the U.S. market. By the end of the second quarter, a total base of
42 flexible cystoscopes have been installed giving more patients access to the
procedure with less constraints.

"The positive EBITDA in the second quarter was driven by our strong revenue
performance, as well as constrained spending levels as the pandemic continued to
restrict some of our commercial and corporate activities. As a result, our cash
balance increased during the quarter by NOK 10.8 million to NOK 340.2 million.
For the second half of 2021, Photocure plans to increase investment in
commercial activities to capitalize on improving access to care and to further
penetrate the large potential market opportunity for Hexvix/Cysview in our
direct global markets, " Schneider adds.

In Europe and parts of the U.S., hospitals are preparing for the recent surge in
Covid-19 Delta variant cases, referred to as the "fourth wave". As a result, key
markets in the U.S. and Europe are expected to continue to be impacted by the
Covid-19 pandemic.

"Despite the ongoing effects of Covid-19 and its variants, I am pleased with the
company's performance in the first half of 2021. I believe that the rebound in
kit volume that we saw in the second quarter is a good indication of our ability
to return to strong organic growth rates once the pandemic is better controlled
and global access to healthcare stabilizes. For now, the environment for revenue
development remains less clear given the latest surge in new Covid-19 Delta
cases. We remain focused on our priorities to help more patients suffering from
bladder cancer benefit from our proven solution, and to create value for our
shareholders as we pursue our vision to become a leader in the bladder cancer
treatment segment," Schneider concludes.

*EBITDA and other alternative performance measures (APMs) are defined and
