Note: The Social Return on Investment (SROI) method aims to gain a deeper understanding of an organization's social, environmental and economic impact. The SROI method offers Grifols a valuable cost-benefit analysis. The SROI uses individual assessments to measure the change in stakeholders' lives because of Grifols' activities. The SROI framework is not a financial framework and derives from the social accountancy. Therefore, the framework attempts to put a number on qualitative issues, and it will always show approximate values.

Our Foundations Socio-economic Impact

Note: Grifols determined the socio-economic impact of its operations in terms of wealth generation and job creation in the United States, Spain, Germany and Ireland. The input-output framework is an accounting instrument that represents all production and distribution operations of an economy in a given timeframe. This model enables observing the different flows of intersectoral transactions in a specific economy in a reference year. In addition, it allows us to observe a series of effects about the production of the system, which appear broken down between the direct or initial, indirect and total effects, which suppose the sum of the previous ones.

Fibrinogen: An Unparalleled Opportunity to Boost Revenue per Liter and Expand Margins

117

Fibrinogen is an abundant, large, and complex protein, which makes it ideally suited to be isolated from human plasma. It accounts for 95% of all coagulation factors in the blood

Fibrinogen promotes platelet aggregation. It is converted to fibrin which forms the connecting glue in blood clots

Fibrinogen concentrate is a highly pure preparation of human fibrinogen that can be used to safely replace the absence or deficit of fibrinogen safer, much faster and with greater efficiency and precision than the current options of fresh frozen plasma or cryoprecipitates

Pregnancy

Playing an Essential Role in Blood Clotting and Hemostasis Treating Acquired and Congenital Fibrinogen Deficiency

  • Very rare, inherited bleeding disorder in which the body's ability to form blood clots is impaired
  • Fibrinogen is used for treatment and prophylaxis of bleeding episodes in these patients

Congenital deficiency Acquired deficiency

  • Body's own fibrinogen lost due to major bleeding during elective surgical procedures or unexpected trauma events
  • Fibrinogen is the first coagulation factor missing in major blood loss
  • Replacement of lost fibrinogen is critical to restore effective hemostasis

The decline in plasma volumes caused by COVID-19 was the primary driver of extraordinary financial impacts

  • Lower collections and higher cost per liter impacted revenues and margins particularly in H2 2021
  • Strong underlying demand backed by price increases
  • Higher R&D and SG&A due to the integration of new companies, transaction and restructuring costs, and inflationary pressures

Bioscience Constrained by Plasma Supply While the Other Divisions Grew in 2021

Also referred to as Transfusional Medicine – blood bank, its main activities include blood typing, compatibility tests and crossmatching and antibody identification
  • Immunology: This is a branch of biomedical science that covers the study of all aspects of the immune system in organisms. It deals with the physiological functioning of the immune system in states of both health and disease; malfunctions (autoimmune diseases, hypersensitivities, immune deficiency, transplant rejection) and the physical, chemical and physiological characteristics of the components of the immune system in vitro, in situ, and in vivo
  • Immunoglobulin (IgG): Also known as antibodies, are proteins derived from plasma. They control de body's immune response. They have multiple indications and some of their main uses are to treat: (i) immune deficiencies, (ii) inflammatory and autoimmune diseases and (iii) acute infections. IVIG is an immunoglobulin administered intravenously that contains IgG (immunoglobulin (antibody)G)

  • IVD: In vitro Diagnostic
  • IV solutions/Intravenous solution: Medicine or homogeneous mixture of a substance in liquid, enabling it to be infusedinto the circulatory system through a needle
  • Lipemic plasma: plasma with a cloudy and/or milky appearance, caused by excess lipids (hyperlipidemia) mainly cholesterol and/or triglycerides in the blood, which in some cases becomes evident

  • Plasma proteomic: describes the high throughput analysis of plasma biomarkers using very powerful, sensitive and specific instruments

  • Plasmapheresis: Plasmapheresis is a technique which separates plasma from other blood components, such as red blood cells, platelets and other cells. These unused blood components are suspended in saline solution and immediately reinjected back into the donor. Because the donor is only providing plasma and not whole blood, the recovery process is faster and better tolerated and the donor is able to make donations more frequently. Plasmapheresis was developed by Jose Antonio Grifols Lucas in the year 1951. It is the only procedure that is capable of obtaining sufficientquantities of plasma to cover the manufacturing needs for the different plasma protein therapies

  • Pneumology: is the specialty that takes care of the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory diseases Pulmunologists treat everything related to the respiratory system from asthma to tuberculosis
  • PPTA: Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association

  • ProlastinR/ProlastinR -C: This is a concentrated form of alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT), derived from human plasma and approved only for chronic, or ongoing, replacement therapy in people with genetic AAT deficiency. Given as prescribed, Prolastin raises the levels of AAT in the blood and lungs. Raising the AAT level may help reduce the damage to the lungs caused by destructive enzymes
  • Proteome: set of proteins that an organism synthesizes from the genes it contains to give the cell its individual character. This set of proteins determines what organisms are like, how their bodies work and how they behave
  • Recombinant: Protein prepared by recombinant technology, coded by the manipulated gene.
