Hyperbaric Oxygen Development Services (HODS)
Company Overview FULL NAME OF COMPANY: Hyperbaric Oxygen Services Limited (HODS) DATE OF INCORPORATION: 25 December 2006 AREA OF INDUSTRY: Accelerated healing of humans & animals using hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT)   NUMBER OF STAFF: 4. HEAD OFFICE:9 Humphreys Drive, Ferrymead, Christchurch with sites in Auckland, Tauranga and Nelson.  MARKET CAP BASED ON LATEST THIRD PARTY TRANSACTION: NZD$2,362,251 (3,525,749 shares on issue at NZD$0.67c) 
Company Overview The company has two existing wholly owned subsidiary businesses, O2 Health and O2 Vet.  All equipment and intellectual property is owned by the parent company, HODS - the operating aspects of the business are handled by the subsidiaries.  O2 Health/O2 Vet offers Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) treatments to humans and injured animals.  HBOT is a proven and highly successful, non-invasive treatment method in which patients breathe pure oxygen inside a pressurised chamber.  During treatment the blood plasma becomes saturated with oxygen which promotes a wide range of healing responses in the body.  Human treatment centres are currently available in Mapua (Nelson).  O2 Vet has three chambers deployed in Nelson, Tauranga and Auckland and is commercialising a innovative new computer-controlled chamber for volume production.  The company has received media and industry coverage in New Zealand for successfully treating a number of high profile cases  including patient recovery from long-term medical issues, accelerated healing for sports personalities, rehabilitating a wild albatross with a broken wing , accelerating healing for rare birds such as a Takahe and a little blue penguin.
Company Overview EDGE: O2 Vet has developed a unique new veterinary hyperbaric chamber that is relatively light weight, portable and highly user friendly featuring fully computer controlled operation.  Existing technology is cumbersome to use and requires specialist installation and oxygen supply.  O2 Vet’s new chamber meets a large and growing demand for specialised treatment for animals that is backed up by strong research and empirical data. USP: A unique profit generation and service differentiation opportunity for vets from an extraordinary proven healing treatment that uses technology to reduce labour costs and maintain high profit margins for users.  The company plans an IPO or trade sale to a medical devices company within three years.
Hyperbarics in the news BBC News (UK): 9th Jan 2004 “England football captain David Beckham received treatment at a hyperbaric oxygen chamber before the last World Cup when he broke his foot...” http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/wales/3384551.stm NZPA News: 9th Feb 2010 “...New Zealand All Black Ali Williams is using a hyperbaric chamber to help with his ruptured ankle injury...” http://www.aliwilliams.co.nz/index.php
Company Structure
What is hyperbaric technology? Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a proven and highly successful, non-invasive treatment method in which patients breathe pure oxygen inside a pressurised chamber.   During treatment the blood plasma and tissues becomes saturated with oxygen which promotes a wide range of healing responses in the body.   The benefits of HBOT are internationally recognised by the medical and veterinary community, as well as elite athletes and the military.  The efficacy of HBOT is validated in New Zealand through its acceptance by the ACC, District Health Boards, and various insurance companies.
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: How does it work? ,[object Object]
 During treatment the animal simply breathes pure oxygen under increased pressure which increases the animal's oxygen tissue saturation by 10 to 15 times beyond normal levels.  
 It is this elevated tissue oxygenation promotes natural healing and recovery takes place at an accelerated rate.  ,[object Object]
 Once at the required pressure it’s as easy as relaxing and breathing
 Duration 60-90 minutes, several treatments
 Accelerates the body’s natural healing,[object Object]

  • 69. O2 Vet: Designing the future! O2 Vet has developed and commercialised new, state-of-the-art hyperbaric treatment chambers for use in veterinary clinics.  These are small, compact, user friendly and fully computer controlled enabling operation by veterinary staff with minimal initial training. Initially available across New Zealand, the company will realise the large export potential across countries worldwide including USA, Asia, and Europe etc. Rollout of the technology will lead to a highly profitable, multi-faceted NZ based export business by establishing a major international market in the veterinary sector and accessing previously untapped demand for specialist human chambers.

  • 76. Partnership with VSG A key partner for the business is the Veterinary Specialist Group in Auckland (VSG). VSG are the largest specialist vet in NZ and have been so encouraged by the improved outcomes from using HBOT that they have published a research paper and are speaking to many other vets about the project. This has led to patient referrals, validation of the opportunity and creation of demand for hyperbaric chambers from other practices around the country. HODS continually aggregates all clinical data from the users of its products, which is creating a proprietary and highly valuable pool of knowledge accelerating further R&D and refinement of treatment protocols, which can then be provided to existing users via a software update. This will lock clients into a compelling value network in which their use improves the products’ effectiveness.
