OSLO, Norway, Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Navamedic ASA (OSE: NAVA), a Nordic pharma company and reliable provider of high-quality products to hospitals and pharmacies, today announces its results for the third quarter of 2023. With growth across the company's three core product areas, Prescription Drugs (RX), Consumer Health and Hospital, year to date, Navamedic has delivered another record quarter. Revenues for the third quarter amounted to NOK 141 million, corresponding to a 51.9 per cent increase Year-over-Year.

The company's gross margin was 37.6 per cent, down from 42.5 per cent in the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA less acquisition cost) amounted to NOK 17.4 million, up from NOK 12.7 million in the corresponding quarter of 2022. Operating results (EBIT) amounted to NOK 12.7 million, compared to NOK 10.9 million in the same period last year.

"Over the last few months, we have demonstrated that consistent and disciplined execution of our strategy can produce significant revenue growth. It is also the first quarter where we see the YoY effect of the products acquired through Impolin. With a broad customer base across our three product areas, we have managed to maintain growth and gain traction in new and existing markets. Today's broad product portfolio also enable us to offer treatments to patients suffering from a variety of illnesses and disorders, from Parkinson's disease and obesity to gastro and pain," commented Kathrine Gamborg Andreassen, CEO of Navamedic.

During the quarter, Navamedic has shown that the path to becoming a NOK 1 billion revenue company is within reach. Moving forward, the company plans to continue growing through M&A and to proactively seek opportunities to secure and increase the portfolio value through the in-licensing and out-licensing of products and brands whilst exploring growth opportunities in additional markets worldwide.

Following the acquisition of Sensidose AB, the company has established a commercial strategy for Flexilev (Myfid), starting with a commercial launch in Norway and Denmark. Flexilev (Myfid) currently has marketing authorisation in a total of 10 countries and is reimbursed in all of the Nordic countries.
