SAFE – FIRST-HALF 2024 SALES

FIRST-HALF 2024 SALES

Fleurieux-sur-l’Arbresle – France – July 29, 2024, 6.00 p.m. The group Safe (FR001400F1V2 – ALSAF) announces consolidated sales for 1st half 2024.

* Unaudited 2024 figures

The Safe Group’s consolidated sales for the 1st half of 2024 came to €2.6 million, maintaining a good level. Over the period, the new management team implemented a large-scale plan to transform the Group. Strategic decisions have been taken, including the implementation of a new sales dynamic, the first effects of which will be visible from the second half of 2024.

Half-year sales for Safe Orthopaedics came to €1.3 million, slightly above Group expectations, compared with €1.7 million in the first half of 2023. Safe Medical sales continued to grow, reaching €1.3 million, up 8.5% on the same period last year.

As a reminder, the Group has been in receivership since September 4, 2023, and has obtained an extension of its observation period until November 4, 2024¹. Beyond this 3rd observation period, validating the strategy, the Safe Group has achieved several successes, including the signature of a major partnership with a group of Californian hospitals, and the successful first implementations of the Sycamore device in Switzerland. Above all, the reorganization of the sales network in France, effective since May 2024, has enabled sales to start up in a dozen new hospitals and clinics.

The operational and financial reorganization undertaken by the Group should enable it to regain its competitiveness and return to profitable growth. At the same time, the management team is continuing to draw up the recovery plans ²which will be examined by the Commercial Court at a hearing scheduled for September 20, 2024.
