”Sales rose during the first nine months of the year as a result of increased deliveries of RayStation® and growing partner sales. However, the result for the period fell due to investments in the build-up of infrastructure for sales, marketing and support of RayStation®, higher development costs and higher legal fees related to the patent dispute in the US.”, says Johan Löf, President of RaySearch.
”Several strategic milestones have been reached to date in 2013 and RayStation® is evolving at a fast pace. While a great deal of work remains ahead for expanding our sales and service organization, interest in the system is rising continuously and we are involved in an increasing number of business discussions throughout the world. It is difficult to predict how rapidly the interest will translate into orders and deliveries, but the prospects are favorable for a very strong end of 2013”, concludes Johan Löf.
