CELLINK has a 132% increase in sales

This is a good time to run a business in the bioprinting sector. CELLINK‘s history is a classic success story in which in just a few years the student start-up has gained international popularity and an established position as the leader of the whole bioprinting industry. Yesterday Swedish company has published the latest financial report, which confirms that their intensive development also translates into financial success.

From the financial results published by the manufacturer, we find out that net sales increased to kSEK 46.430 ( approximately USD 4.885k), which translates into a 132% increase compared to the first quarter of the previous financial year, of which 51% is organic growth. What’s more, the operating profit before EBDITA amounted to kSEK -884 (approximately USD -93k).

The published report covers the period from September 1 to November 30, 2019. This time was particularly intense for CELLINK:

  • company introduced BIO X6 – a new six-head 3D bioprinter
  • obtained a patent for the construction of his proprietary BIO X device
  • received a number of awards and honors, including the Merck Innovation Award for developing a technology designed to improve pharmaceutical research or the title of Swedish “Entrepreneur of the Year 2019”,
