Good performance level in Europe

In Europe, consolidated revenue for the first half totaled €189.7 million compared with €187.5 million for 2015 in its pro forma version, incorporating an adverse exchange rate impact of nearly €2 million. At current exchange rates, the second quarter confirmed the growth of the first quarter, which was already 1.2%.

Outside Europe, despite the good performance of Dotarem® in the US, the Group's sales totaled €187.0 million compared with €210.3 million for 2015 in its pro forma version, an 11.1% decrease. However, this decline incorporates an adverse exchange rate impact of nearly €10 million and reveals an improving trend in the second quarter (-9.0%), at current exchange rates, compared with the first quarter (-13.1%).

Double-digit growth in Dotarem® sales, lower performance for X-rays

At constant exchange rates, the activity breaks down as follows:

• good Dotarem sales in both Europe and the US resulted in half-year revenue of €121.8 million for MRI, up 5.5%
• the X-ray segment fell by 6.8% to €205.3 million, mainly due to Optiray, but its decline began to slow down in the second quarter thanks to stimulus actions undertaken since the acquisition of CMDS
• the performance of Lipiodol® and Patent Blue V increased the IRT segment's revenue by 18.3% to €25.4 million
• lastly, the Imaging Solutions and Services (ISS) segment is down nearly 7.4% with revenue of €34.5 million, reflecting lower injector sales.

2016 outlook: stabilization of sales at +/- 3% already achieved and confirmation of annual targets

The second quarter confirms Guerbet's ability to reverse the trend on sharply declining CMDS sales (-20% over the last two years before the acquisition). At the end of the first half, consolidated sales are -2.3% at constant exchange rates, within the target window of +/- 3% announced for the full year. The Group is therefore confirming its annual targets and its ability to start growing again in 2017.
