CEO Göran Malmberg comments:
The fourth quarter of 2022 concluded the year as a year of continued growth, driven by strong growth from both the hospital and strategic alliances business areas but also partly fuelled by the exchange rate. For the fourth quarter, we are pleased to see the initial effects of cost-saving activities implemented during the third quarter. We have reduced external costs, improved our cash position, increased operational cash flow, and also a small but positive EPS.
For the full year, we have delivered growth in net sales of almost 18% (including currency effects), and we reached a new all-time high of 218.0 MSEK for net sales in 2022. At the same time, we have increased our order intake from 205 MSEK to 252 (23%), and our order book at the end of 2022 was 126 (87) MSEK, an increase of 45%.
We are also pleased to see that, despite improvement during 2021, we have continued to improve our margins for 2022, resulting in an average gross margin of 85.5%, up from 81.0% in 2021. This is driven by price adjustments but also our focus on product mix and margin on deal levels. Currency exchange rates also have a positive effect on margins.
