“In a turbulent world, Vimian continues to deliver strong organic growth of 12 per cent, ahead of the animal health market. Profit for the quarter improved significantly to EUR 7.6 million (-1.6). Cash generation remains in focus, and we delivered EUR 11.6 million (-5.8) in cash flow from operating activities”, says Dr. Fredrik Ullman, CEO of Vimian Group and continues:
“The adjusted EBITA margin of 22.9 per cent (24.3) primarily reflects the sales pattern in MedTech where the annual ordering programme shifts high margin sales to the first quarter, in combination with mix effect from strong growth in US Specialised Nutrition in Specialty Pharma. We continue our efforts to deliver margin expansion over the coming quarters.”
Last twelve months pro-forma revenues (including the full year impact of all acquisitions completed during the twelve months ending 30 September 2023) reached EUR 333 million and pro-forma adjusted EBITA EUR 85.5 million.
