Highlights during the period
July 2023 - The Company shared the plans and work with their strong Danish product pipeline across its four stages from concept to commercialization. Meeting Danish Drug Standards (DLS) the company has a full product program of 2nd generation medical cannabis oil products (stage 3+4), specialized products with unique potency profiles (stage 2) and also 3rd generation product program that can revolutionize the industry (stage 1).
September 2023 - The Company is addressing the supply challenges faced by general medicine products in Europe, with a commitment to managing their supply chain to uphold the principle of providing ongoing and predictable treatment with Stenocare products.
September 2023 - The Company is pleased to report on important progress on several tracks. After a period, marked by regulatory delays in Denmark and elsewhere, Stenocare is now seeing traction building in several areas which is expected to translate into a growing sales run rate in the coming quarters and year, breakeven during 2024 and even more ambitious goals and milestones thereafter.
September 2023 - The Company announces that fresh market data from the Danish Health Data Authority reveal that medical cannabis oil products in the Pilot Programme offered by Stenocare are steadily capturing market share with a growth of 90% during the last six quarters. Stenocare offers the only two oil products approved for sales in the Pilot for Danish patients, and it is expected that this trend will grow further when Stenocare's third product is approved. This is expected within 4-6 months.
Highlights after the period:
October 2023 - The Company announced in June that a Stenocare branded medical cannabis oil product has been approved for sales in Germany, and now the product is ready for sales to German patients.
November 2023 - The Company announced a one-off return of products from Norway. This is a consequence of the management of the pain centres (hospitals) decided to hold back the budget for treatment with all cannabis-based products - which slowed down sales run rate and resulted in products expiring. Due to this situation in Norway, products worth 2,1 mDKK have now been returned to STENOCARE.
November 2023 - The Company announces record sales in 2023 and forecast break-even in 2024. With actual sales in Q3-2023 of 2.3 mDKK, combined with preliminary guidance for Q4-23 of 1.7 mDKK, STENOCARE is on track to all times high actual sales in 2023 of around 6.5 mDKK. This is up from practically no sales in 2020 and very limited net sales in 2021 and 2022.
