MyHealthChecked's (LON: MHC) share price is sliding after the consumer home testing healthcare firm posted a £3.8 million pre-tax loss for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The Group's loss for 2019 came in at £2.1 million. 

Revenue rose to £49,480 from £31,970 the previous year.

The company described 2020 as a “transformational year” after they began delivery of a growth plan, allowing them to “begin 2021 with a clear runway ahead to revenue achievement.”

Penny McCormick, CEO of MyHealthChecked, said: We have commenced 2021 a very different organisation to that of the previous January, and I am immensely proud of the team that formed during lockdown and gelled together with a commitment, energy and ambition for growth. 

“We stand today as a team with a highly credible, compliant and successful pharmacy customer, a high street presence, a proven service, and with an operational and commercial set-up ready to deliver growth in a regulated product, poised for the needs of the market in 2021. 

“With a strong pipeline outside of COVID-19 building, life after COVID is exciting, and we enter this phase with growing confidence in the road to delivery gained through the experiences and successes of 2020 and 2021 to date.”
