"Twenty-three-per-cent sales growth in our Canadian pharmaceutical business during the second quarter resulted in record quarterly sales for the company overall even in the absence of any international pharmaceutical sales contribution during the quarter," commented Rene Goehrum, president and chief executive officer of BioSyent. "Although international pharmaceutical sales continue to be lumpy, the company has received international FeraMAX orders and advance customer deposits in excess of $900,000. Shipment of these international FeraMAX orders is planned for Q3 and Q4 2023. In our Canadian pharmaceutical business, we are pleased to have introduced three new innovative products in Canada in 2023: FeraMAX Pd Maintenance 45 (launched in March, 2023); Inofolic (launched in August, 2023); and Gelclair (promotion commenced in July, 2023). Collectively, these new products strengthen our women's health product portfolio and expand our specialty product portfolio. While we plan to make further near-term incremental selling and marketing investments in launching these new products, we expect our expanded product portfolio to deliver revenue growth and profit over the long term that is in line with our strategic objectives."

The CEO's presentation on the Q2 2023 results is available at the company's website.

The company's interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and management's discussion and analysis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 will be posted on SEDAR+ on Aug. 22, 2023.
