Press release Stockholm 21 December 2018
In June 2018, Bactiguard signed a combined distribution and license agreement with Well Lead at an initial value of over 30 million. At the same time, the cooperation with former distributor Jian AN was terminated and Bactiguard paid a compensation of approximately SEK 11 million for their investments in the marketing and Chinese product approval process.
The agreement with Well Lead, China's leading manufacturer of consumable medical devices, includes all products in Bactiguard's portfolio and initially generates revenues of more than SEK 30 million in the form of product deliveries and license fees.
The first product order was of the same size as the new order and generated revenues of approximately SEK 10 million in the second quarter. In addition, the agreement with Well Lead has generated license revenues of just over SEK 8 million so far this year.
