Therapy Objective: recurring revenue optimization through existing installed base and profitable new system growth in major depressive disorder (MDD) and chronic neuropathic pain. Launching a new severe depression indication business based on an accelerated therapy protocol.
- Therapy Scope: Leverage this platform technology around selected therapeutic indications in selected markets (focus in the USA & EU) with new and existing TMS service providers:
- Treatment of MDD and severe depression
- Treatment of chronic neuropathic pain
Diagnostic and Therapy Advantages: These selected diagnostic and therapeutic applications represent indications where:
- Nexstim technology demonstrates recognisable clinical outcome and customer profitability

- Integrated and easy to use navigated TMS device enables a future platform in other indications from day one
Key Strategic Objectives for Year 2020
- Decrease the operating loss with focus on achieving profitable revenue growth and strict management of operating expenses
- Start two new pilot studies in treating severe depression and/or chronic pain patients with accelerated therapy treatment protocols

Mikko Karvinen, CEO of Nexstim Plc, commented: “I’m glad that during the spring and summer time in the turmoil of containing the the COVID-19 health and financial crisis effects, we dedicated a substantial amount of Nexstim Board and management time to clarify our thoughts about our strategy for the years 2020-2024. Nexstim continues to enable personalised and effective therapies and diagnostics for challenging brain diseases and disorders. Our main strategic focus will stay in the therapeutic indications where we will bring the new accelerated therapy protocols to the core development path of our business. We see that this is possibly a game changer in the field of TMS treatments as we will seek for validation of higher efficacy rates through our pilot studies. The selected therapeutic applications (MDD, severe depression and chronic pain) represent indications where our unique technology already demonstrates recognizable clinical outcome and customer profitability and where maybe in more severe cases also more hospital inpatient treatments are required in the future. We will progress in our science-based development path so that Nexstim’s navigated TMS device will continue to be at the forefront of delivering new treatments for future indications. I’m confident that through execution of this strategy selected we will create shareholder value through stronger competitive advantages, accelerated growth and better financial results.”
