CEO comment
"XVIVO had an eventful and intensive third quarter. In August, the company launched a new strategy for the coming five years to support our goal of becoming the global leader in the transplantation industry for all major organs. Abdominal made its strongest sales quarter for the year while Thoracic showed a decline, attributable to a temporarily reduced number of lung transplants in the US. We expect a gradual increase in the number of transplants in all markets as the number of new Covid-19 cases decreases and in our main market, the US, September and October have shown positive trends."
