Year-end report 2023: Scientific and regulatory progress generating international interest

LUND, Sweden, Feb. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- 

Comment from the CEO

"It is with mixed feelings that we sum up 2023. Of course, we would have liked to see a better financial performance for the company, but it is gratifying that sales in Sweden were up by 31 percent. Last fall, we saw fantastic results from independent research studies that together with the coming MDR certification pave the way for a very exciting future.

Order intake from our major partners has been disappointing in recent years, but I am confident that it will pick up once MDR certification and clinical outcomes are in place. Coupled with our efforts to establish collaborations with new partners and enter new markets, this will provide Enzymatica with good growth in the coming years", said Claus Egstrand, CEO.
