    • Robust revenue growth trend in EMEA continues supported by pricing pass through as well as commercial and operational strengthening
    • Organic revenue growth in Latin America reflects initial signs of market stabilization and supported by improving operational efficiency

Rafael Padilla, CEO of Fagron:
“Our performance in the first quarter reflects our focused execution, and resilience in the business model despite the uncertain macro-economic environment. All our regions have shown organic growth mainly reaping the benefits of the strategic initiatives on the operational and commercial front. The performance in EMEA has continued its upward trajectory following pricing pass-through and operational excellence and commercial initiatives bearing fruit. In Latin America, we have seen initial signs of recovery in the market although the competitive environment remains heightened. In North America, syringe supply continued to ease which resulted in improved performance at FSS, while Anazao’s firm performance was supported by strong underlying demand for preventive healthcare.

The acquisition of Wildlife Pharmaceuticals in South-Africa allows us to expand our footprint in the attractive therapeutic area of veterinary compounding, further solidifying our local positioning. We remain committed to further consolidating the market and continuously assessing market opportunities across all our regions.

We remain confident about the prospects of our business globally and reiterate our FY 2023 and midterm guidance provided earlier this year.”
