Winston Score History

The full picture

Corline Biomedical is a Swedish biotech company that develops coatings for medical devices and organs used in transplants and surgeries. Its main technology, called Corline Heparin Surface (CHS), is a heparin-based coating that helps prevent blood clotting when blood touches artificial surfaces or donor organs. The company's customers are hospitals, transplant centers, and medical device makers, primarily in Europe.

Corline makes money by licensing its coating technology and through research partnerships, though it is still in an early commercial stage and currently spends far more than it earns. The company operates mainly in Sweden and the broader European market and is quite small, with a market cap around $0.5 billion. Its main competitive edge is its specialized coating platform, which has shown promise in kidney transplant preservation — but the biggest risk is that the company burns cash steadily, has negative margins, and depends heavily on clinical trial outcomes and regulatory approvals to reach profitability.

Revenue accelerating

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
