  • Operating result of TSEK -17,910 (-23,011) was an improvement of MSEK 5.1 over previous year, despite strategic investments in clinical programs and increased sales dependent items, clearly demonstrating increasing operating leverage in the business.
  • Other operating expenses were stable in the quarter, with the reported increase being explained by negative exchange rate effects. Per definition, sales driven operating expenses increased with sales.
  • Non-recurring costs of TSEK -15,198 includes all costs related to the restructuring of the company, brought about by the planned and communicated discontinuation of our CMF franchise. In the third quarter such costs were limited to the non-cash write-down of intangible CMF fixed assets.
