We also benefit from our effective marketing activities, which enable us to exploit the potential of our product portfolio to an even greater extent."

CFO Michael Rudolf adds: "After the first nine months, we see PharmaSGP well on track to achieving the targets for 2023 in terms of both revenue and earnings.

Thanks to this strong structural and financial basis, we are confident that we will be able to continue our success story beyond the 2023 financial year."
