DGAP-News: Vita 34 AG / Key word(s): Quarter Results Vita 34 significantly increases profitability in the first quarter and paves the way for expansion of the product portfolio
The planned increase in cash and cash equivalents, resulting from the high level of operating cash flow, will be available to the Company’s Executive Board for investments in the future organic and acquisition-related growth of Vita 34 as the year progresses. Further sources of funding will be added upon project progress. “As stated in our current corporate presentation, we see significant growth potential for our company in the coming years, and above all through the development and introduction of new products,” says Dr. Wolfgang Knirsch, Chief Executive Officer of Vita 34. “In addition to our AdipoVita product, which we hope to launch later this year, we are focusing our human and financial resources on investments into expanding our product range for the storage of peripheral blood for the use in immune cell therapies. After the preliminary legal review in the first quarter has already been approved, we would ideally expect a market launch within the next 24 months, provided that all further steps of the approval process can be completed according to plan as expected.” Further information on the company and the current company presentation can be found in the Investor Relations section of the Vita 34 AG website at https://www.vita34.de/investor-relations/.
