“We are pleased to report our highest-ever quarterly total Company sales in Q3 2024 with 8% growth over the comparative Q3 2023 and 7% growth over the prior quarter, Q2 2024,” said René Goehrum, President and CEO of BioSyent. “With 12% sales growth in Canadian pharmaceutical sales, all of the Company’s Canadian pharmaceutical products contributed to this growth during the quarter. On a year-to-date basis, our total Company sales, EBITDA and NIAT all grew by 13%. On a per share basis, as a result of our ongoing share buybacks, diluted EPS increased by 17% to $0.48 for the year-to-date period.”
Mr. Goehrum continued, “While we continued to deliver profitable growth during the quarter, we also made investments in future growth with continued promotion of our three in-market launch products, FeraMAX® Pd Maintenance 45, Inofolic®, and Gelclair®, as well as development of a new FeraMAX® Pd product and regulatory support of a new endocrinology product in-licensed earlier this year. During the quarter, we also made a significant investment in acquiring Tibelia® at an attractive valuation. We continue to transition this business to our operating structure and look forward to shipping product in Q1 2025 to fill existing customer orders. With the revenue and EBITDA we expect the Tibelia® business to generate, the capital deployed in this transaction delivers on our strategic objectives of long-term growth and portfolio diversification. I look forward to reporting on our continued progress during the rest of 2024 and 2025.”
