Interim Report 1 January - 30 September 2024

Report this content
  • Improvement of financial result through lower cost base and increased revenues
  • Focus towards expansion of US sales force
  • Continued progress of 510(k)-process for great toe implant

I am pleased to present a quarterly report in which we seriously demonstrate that our measures positively impact the income statement. In the third quarter, we improved our result by SEK 4.9m compared to the corresponding quarter last year, and we now see that our cost-saving initiatives are yielding results. With increased revenues, we have good opportunities to continue to step into the commercial phase, now also financially. Our US business is in its infancy, but we see the right tendencies in the US, and in recent weeks, we have trained more salespeople in the US than we have done in 10 years in Europe. All our key metrics, such as number of customers, revenue per customer, pricing, and number of implant systems sold improved during the quarter, and we now need to continue that path”, says Pål Ryfors, CEO Episurf Medical.
