Highlights of the third quarter
- Sales revenue in the 3 rd quarter of 2015 are decreasing by 2.4% in comparison to 2014 (-1% at constant rate) with a revenue growth in France and the USA, but in decline mainly in Russia and to a lesser extent in Italy and Poland.
- Boiron announced its plan to locate its future logistic platform in the town of Les Olmes, near Tarare in the West of Lyon. Meanwhile, construction work for the site extension of Messimy have begun.
- Boiron put on the French market a new cough syrup, Stodaline ®.
Outlook
- Boiron continues its involvement in the development of homeopathy in the world.
- Given the development of the activity at the end of September 2015 and the unpredictability of seasonal pathology of the last quarter, the operational income may not reach the same level as in 2014.
Our next update: January 21, 2016 at market close, publication of the sales revenue for the year 2015.
