“We report strong organic growth of 25 per cent in the second quarter, where all business areas demonstrate continued expansion. Our MedTech segment has seen accelerated growth following continued solid demand and successful commercial initiatives. Specialty Pharma also showed strong and accelerating underlying organic growth, above the average for Vimian Group in the quarter. The Diagnostics segment had a quarter to quarter variation due to an exceptional first quarter boosted by backorder filling and distributor re-stocking. Veterinary Services is starting to see positive momentum as Europe is slowly reopening”, says Dr. Fredrik Ullman, CEO of Vimian Group.
Adjusted EBITA increased to EUR 12.2m (3.6) in the quarter and the adjusted EBITA margin increased to 30.8 per cent, compared to 29.7 per cent in the quarter last year.
“Our medium-term target of 35 per cent EBITA margin will see variations between quarters near-term as we continue to invest where opportunities arise, to drive profitable long-term growth”, says Dr. Fredrik Ullman, CEO of Vimian Group.
