The Cyclopharm Limited (ASX: CYC) share price is dipping today after the company released its 2021 AGM Presentation.

Cyclopharm shares are down 1% to $2.82 at the time of writing, after gaining more than 10% over the past week.

Highlights from Cyclopharm's market update

Cyclopharm reported significant metrics in its AGM, noting record group sales revenue in 2020 of $14.7 million, up 4.2% on 2019. It recorded $2.2 million of new third‐party distribution revenue in its Technegas distribution network.

Overall, Technegas sales rebounded by 51.4% in the second half of 2020, after a pandemic-impacted first half. The company reported a $5.8 million net loss before tax. The company's February 2021 capital raising placement was oversubscribed, raising $33 million in total.

Cyclopharm AGM Chair's address

Cyclopharm Chair, David Heaney, expanded on the company's rebound from COVID-19.

2020 was a pivotal year for Cyclopharm. Despite the challenges we faced from a global coronavirus pandemic, we have expanded our global footprint to  include sales into over 60 countries, and proudly, our Technegas products have now been used in over 4.3 million patient procedures globally. We also commenced operations as a distributor of third party products in Europe, leveraging our existing distribution capabilities.

Together with our existing Technegas revenues, this new income stream enabled Cyclopharm to report record revenues in 2020 of $14.7 million. Our strong underlying sales performance supported the Board's decision to maintain our full year dividend at 1.0 cent per share.
