Sales for the third quarter of 2018 are up sharply at +9% compared to the third quarter of 2017. This performance is mainly due to the very strong growth in sales of Tracker kits for routine use, which rose by 34% over the period.
Theradiag’s revenue in the nine-months period to September 30, 2018 totaled €6.5 million, down 5% on its nine-months 2017 level, compared to a 9% contraction in the first half of 2018.
Nine-months sales of Tracker kits for routine use moved up 18% from their nine-months 2017 level. Growth in Tracker sales for routine use accelerated from 8% in the first, to 15% in the second and 34% in the third quarter.
As in the previous quarter, total theranostics revenue declined by 9% because no non-recurring theranostics revenue was recorded in the first nine months of the year. In contrast, substantial revenue was received in the same period of 2017 under agreements with pharmaceutical groups.
IVD revenue remained stable at September 30,2018.
