- Profitability in the first half-year period improved significantly through:
- the increase in sales, in particular due to the high incidence of the strong pathology in the 1st quarter;
- the managed control of operating expenses;
- cost savings generated by the reorganizations in Italy, Belgium and Switzerland in 2012.
Operating income was however impacted by restructuring costs of €6,072 thousand in Spain and Belgium.
- The highlights of the second quarter of 2013 were mentioned in the financial notice dated July 12, 2013 related to first half-year sales.
- Given its first half-year performance, Boiron confirms its target of further increases in sales and profitability in 2013.
The accounts were subjected to a limited review of statutory auditors. The half-year report, including information on activities and results of the first half-year and the 2013 outlook, was published in line with the provisions of Article 221-3 of the French Securities and Exchange Commission Regulations [AMF].
