Sales for the year amounted to MSEK 4.2 (MSEK 1.1 in 2014). Sales consisted of both the infusion product line CLiP® and the newly launched arterial catheter SWiTCH which were delivered to 16 of our distributors, mainly on the European market. Vigmed has signed agreements with new distributors and commenced sales to the majority of these during the year. 

Feedback from some customers pointed out a detail in the design, affecting the robustness of some of the CLiP products. After thorough analysis, the product design was modified and updated. A new version, Vigclip® 3, has been successfully launched during the end of the year and the response has been positive on the market.

Henrik Olsen was appointed interim CEO in Vigmed Holding AB (publ) in October after the decision of refocusing the Group’s resources on sales. This was followed by a reorganization which resulted in a smaller and more focused management team as well as the workforce being reduced by four people. 

Vigmed took over the supply chain from the Danish partner, MBH International A/S and shipped its first order of the needle protected arterial catheter Vigmed® SWiTCH from the newly established warehouse.

A rights issue was fully subscribed in December and Vigmed received MSEK 50.6 after deduction of issuance costs.
