CEO Anders Karlsson’s comments on the fourth quarter 2012:

"In 2012, Allenex reset its course to focus on transplantation diagnostics. The organization is now streamlined to underpin the company’s new strategy and adapted to meet the needs of our customers. Sales increased during the year and we achieved a number of key business milestones. We see continued growth in important markets for the company’s largest product Olerup SSP. The roll out of the SBT Resolver™ product line from our Australian partner Conexio Genomics has been intensive and during the year several centers have adopted the product. After the year end, we received a breakthrough order in the U.S., from a major leading transplantation center, with several other key American centers shortly expected to follow suit. We see this as a key launch milestone, with the possibility of gaining other major centers in other parts of the world as customers. Unfortunately, the strong Swedish kronor has had a negative impact on sales, primarily during the second half of 2012.”
