CEO Anders Karlsson’s comments on the fourth quarter 2012:
“In 2012, Allenex reset its course to focus on transplantation diagnostics. The
organization is now streamlined to underpin the company’s new strategy and
adapted to meet the needs of our customers. Sales increased during the year and
we achieved a number of key business milestones. We see continued growth in
important markets for the company’s largest product Olerup SSP. The roll out of
the SBT Resolver™ product line from our Australian partner Conexio Genomics has
been intensive and during the year several centers have adopted the product.
After the year end, we received a breakthrough order in the U.S., from a major
leading transplantation center, with several other key American centers shortly
expected to follow suit. We see this as a key launch milestone, with the
possibility of gaining other major centers in other parts of the world as
customers. Unfortunately, the strong Swedish kronor has had a negative impact on
sales, primarily during the second half of 2012.”
