CEO’S COMMENTS:

“For some time, we have been increasing our resources in Consumer Healthcare and
it is gratifying to now see the positive effects of these investments. Net sales
in the business area rose 21% to slightly more than MSEK 30 under the first six
months of the year. Growth was primarily driven by the positive performance in
the North American market. During the summer, we also signed two new agreements
in Asia and Eastern Europe, two markets that are prioritised for our continued
growth. We view both Bio-Life and AlenMed as strategic partners for our future
expansion in these regions.”, says Gun-Britt Fransson, interim CEO of Probi.
