Mill NOK Q4 '13 Q4 '12 Q/Q 2013 2012 Y/Y
Europe 31,1 30,7 1,3 % 114,6 107,0 7,1 %
USA 10,6 11,7 -9,4 % 45,9 48,5 -5,4 %

Total 52,2 49,7 4,9 % 191,0 183,7 3,9 %

• In Europe, there was positive development in sales of own products for both systems and probes. Sales of own products increased with 15 % in Q4 and 19 % in 2013. 3rd party sales decreased by 6.8 % in Q4 and 1.1 % for 2013.

  • In the US, revenues from procedure sales was growing by 2,5% for the quarter although the total number of procedures was down by 9.5% It is the lack of capital sales that explains the drop in total US Q4 revenues of 9.6%. The same trend also explains the YTD performance.
  • Both Asia/Japan and ROW are so far smaller sales territories for Medistim, and quarterly performance varies significantly, but there was a solid growth in Q4.

Positive currency effects for the quarter with 1.2 MNOK and MNOK 2.1 for the full year 2013.

Q4 revenue performance by product

Flow probes 13,0 11,4 14,0 % 51,1 47,3 8,0 %
Flow systems (VeriQ) 5,1 5,2 -1,9 % 17,1 17,9 -4,5 %
Imaging systems (VeriQ C) 4,7 2,6 80,8 % 13,9 9,0 54,4 %

  • Flow probes revenue: The positive trend from last year continues.
  • VeriQ flow systems: Strong system sales continues in Europe, however, the lack of US capital sales this quarter explains flat revenue. (0 MNOK from US this quarter vs 0.5 MNOK in Q4 12) . The same explanation is valid for 2013.
  • VeriQ C imaging systems and probes: Solid in all regions this quarter and a solid growth YTD.
  • 3rd party products: Decline for the quarter, but for the year revenues are at the same level as last year despite loss of major agency.
