"The core business is linked to routine testing at hospitals around the world and this has undoubtedly been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. The timing of a return to normality is uncertain but when it does, we expect our business will revert to an established trajectory, albeit without the income from NT-proBNP which ceased from July 2021. Regardless of the pandemic effects, we anticipate the continued roll-out of the high sensitivity troponin assays and the royalties associated with this," the company says.
Current stock price: 3,900.00p
Year-to-date change: down 11%
