Biome Australia expands global footprint, targets strong growth in clinically proven Probiotics

Biome Australia Managing Director Blair Norfolk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to talk about the company’s expansion strategy and continued growth in clinically validated, condition-specific probiotics. As a leader in live biotherapeutics, Biome Australia has developed probiotics with proven benefits across various health conditions, including mental health, asthma, cardiovascular health, and skin care. The company has over 20 clinical trials validating its products in those areas including the world’s first asthma probiotic, which achieved a 64% reduction in asthma events. Biome’s practitioner-only model ensures that products are recommended by health professionals and sold behind pharmacy counters, contributing to approximately 30% of total sales. While Australia remains the core market, generating over 90% of revenue, Biome is actively expanding into New Zealand, the UK, Ireland, and Canada. Norfolk noted that early results in Canada are ahead of schedule, with further updates expected on the ASX. Instead of launching new products, Biome is focused on expanding use cases for its existing 18-product portfolio, ensuring efficient cash flow management and lower product risk. Biome has emerged as the #2 probiotics brand in Australia’s community pharmacy market by total revenue. Norfolk credited ongoing research and innovation as key drivers of success. Looking ahead, Biome expects a strong close to FY25, fueled by increased demand during cold and flu season, and is on track to deliver its first full-year net profit as part of its Vision 27 strategic plan. #proactiveinvestors #biomeaustralialimited #asx #bio #BlairNorfolk #LiveBiotherapeutics #MentalHealthProbiotics #AsthmaTreatment #PharmaceuticalGrowth #ASXUpdates #NaturalMedicine #TargetedTherapy #PharmacyInnovation #InvestingInHealth #CanadianPharma #ColdAndFluSeason

Atrato Partners on Social Housing REIT (SOHO): strategy, debt and dividend outlook

Atrato Partners, the newly appointed Investment Manager of Social Housing REIT (SOHO) talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the current state of the specialised supported housing sector and how the company is tackling key challenges within its portfolio. Fund manager Adrian D'Enrico was joined by Michael Carey and Natalie Markham, offering a comprehensive update on SOHO’s operational and financial performance. D'Enrico addressed common misconceptions about the sector, clarifying that it is not temporary or homeless accommodation, but instead provides long-term homes for adults with care needs. “A misconception as well is that specialised supported housing is a passive investment based on the long lease,” he explained, underlining the importance of resident occupancy and the operational real estate nature of the assets. Carey detailed the steps taken to resolve issues with Parasol and My Space Housing Solutions, including lease transfers to stronger providers, which are expected to improve rent collection. “We’ve collected 72% of the contracted amount so far with Westmoreland, and we’re confident we’ll meet our target,” he said. Markham reviewed the FY24 results, noting that while net tangible assets declined to £0.99 per share, rent collection stood at 93% and the company maintains strong debt metrics with an average maturity of 8.6 years and a 2.74% all-in cost.

Qualitas funds soar as banks step back

Qualitas Ltd Group Managing Director Andrew Schwartz talked with Proactive at the AIM's Small and Midcap conference about the company's differentiated position in Australia's real estate investment management landscape. Andrew Schwartz explained that Qualitas operates at scale, supported by large institutional capital. “Some of those investors literally commit amounts of 1.7 billion and above to Qualitas,” he said, noting the firm can fund projects with hundreds of millions—territory once dominated by traditional banks. Schwartz highlighted the company’s deep property expertise, developed over decades, as a key driver of performance. He said, “We are deep sector, deep dive property people,” which allows them to manage funds based not just on lending metrics but also on underlying property fundamentals. The conversation also addressed Qualitas’ notable growth in funds management revenue since its 2021 IPO. Schwartz attributed this to structural shifts in the Australian finance market, where banks still represent 77% of a AU$477 billion sector—but their share is shrinking. “We’ve really got the benefit of filling a void in the market that the bank market just can’t fill,” he said. Roughly 80% of Qualitas' activities are in the housing sector, financing large-scale residential projects rather than retail home loans. Schwartz said the persistent supply shortage, despite rising interest rates, underpins property values and creates strong demand for capital. #Qualitas #RealEstateInvestment #InstitutionalCapital #AustralianHousing #PropertyFinance #AndrewSchwartz #HousingShortage #ASX #FundsManagement #ProactiveInvestors

Wrkr CEO on super compliance growth strategy

Wrkr Limited CEO Trent Lund talked with Proactive at the AIM's Small and Midcap Conference about the company’s strategy to simplify compliance through a deeply integrated digital platform. The ASX-listed company, trading under the ticker WRK, connects users, employers, and superannuation funds to streamline data accuracy and reduce friction in onboarding processes. “We do all the hard work and the heavy lifting so the business and the employee don’t have to,” said Lund. He explained that Wrkr verifies user credentials and automates data flows, reducing error and increasing trust. The system connects to major superannuation funds and payroll systems, holding accurate user information even during job transitions. Lund detailed Wrkr’s monetisation model, which aims to earn approximately $7 per user through microservices, including license checks and transactions. Current pilots, including one with major fund REST, are transitioning to production. Each super fund implementation takes about nine months and represents between $7 million and $14 million in annual annuity revenue once fully operational. Looking ahead, 2025 will be focused on large-scale implementation, with 2026 anticipated to generate higher consumption-based revenues. In 2027, Wrkr expects a significant uplift with the introduction of payday super legislation. #WrkrLimited #TrentLund #ASXWRK #Superannuation #ComplianceTech #FintechAustralia #PayrollIntegration #InvestorUpdate #PaydaySuper #DigitalTransformation #DataVerification #WorkforceAutomation
