Operating margins and net profit came in impressively strong, however, due to a shift towards high-margin business areas such as DSM sales and royalties, as well as solid cost control. After the release of the Q1 report came news that Magle Chemoswed has entered a pre-agreement to buy land next to its productions site in Malmö, which enables future expansion of its CDMO operations.
