AroCell
AroCell AB (publ) Interim Report January 1st to September 30th, 2023
A word from the CEO
”The first nine months have been highly favorable for AroCell, with almost a 40% increase in sales compared to previous years. During the third quarter, AroCell continues to experience a growing order intake in both bacteriology and oncology. To address the growing demand, we are consistently increasing our production capacity, both through internal expansion and in collaboration with our partners. As a result of increased demand and a temporary extension of delivery times with suppliers, we are experiencing a shift in revenue recognition from the third quarter to future periods. Simultaneously, the work to automate several of our biomarkers is progressing as planned. I am pleased to report that we are in a good position to take the company further in its growth.”
Anders Hultman, CEO
