Stille AB: Interim Report Q3 2021

Stille AB (publ) publishes the report for the third quarter. “A quarter with strong growth”, summarizes CEO Hanna Ernestam Wilkman.

Stille delivered growth both organically as well as through the acquisition of Swiss company S&T AG. Organic sales grew by 12% compared to the same quarter previous year.

“The acquisition of S&T means that business unit Surgical Instruments has doubled in size. The integration of the company is progressing according to plan. Our main focus is to realize identified cross-selling synergies within both product and distribution network”, says CEO Hanna Ernestam Wilkman.

Revenues grew for both business unit Surgical Instruments (44%) as well as business unit C-arm Tables (14%).
    
“I am particularly satisfied to see that our expansion in the US continues with a growth of 34%. This despite of disruptions in the supply chain, disruptions that may continue to affect the business. As we now enter the fourth quarter, we do so with a strong optimism regarding the continued development of our business”, concludes Stille’s CEO.
