”We are far from satisfied with this profit level, but we strongly believe that the actions we have taken to strengthen sales of the released products will improve the situation. In addition, there are several new product releases scheduled in the coming year,” says Johan Löf, President of RaySearch.

”RaySearch’s guiding principle is to shorten the time required for new scientific discoveries to reach clinical application. Within the framework of our current business model we have several times experienced delays that are beyond RaySearch’s control. We have therefore started evaluating the possibility of selling direct to clinics in parallel with sales through our partners,” concludes Johan Löf.
