Allenex president and CEO Anders Karlsson’s commentary on the fourth quarter 2013: “Allenex as a whole grew over 7 percent in the fourth quarter compared to the same period last year. Sales in the U.S. performed very well, up 40 percent compared to 2012. In particular, an increase in sales in the SBT segment lies behind the growth we are seeing in North America, where several new centers started clinical testing with SBT Resolver™ in the second half of 2013. We are also positive about the European market, where we successfully met last year’s sales figures, despite a challenging business environment. Our geographic expansion of the Olerup SSP® product line continues and we are working actively to secure product registration and new distribution channels in growth markets.” For additional information, please contact: Anders Karlsson, CEO, tel: +46 (0)70-918 00 10 or email: anders.karlsson@allenex.se Yvonne Axelsson, CFO, tel: +46 (8) 508 939 72 or email: yvonne.axelsson@allenex.se
