The Krka Group’s unaudited net profit was €363.7 million, an increase by €55.5 million year-over-year, or 18%, i.e. also the highest so far. The 2022 Annual Report is being released on Thursday, 13 April 2023.
The President of the Management Board and Chief Executive Jože Colarič explained: “As reported in January, Krka Group operations in 2022 were successful and in line with expectations. The actual full-year sales value remains as reported in the 2022 unaudited performance estimate, while operating profit and net profit have exceeded our estimates by €0.9 million and by €2.5 million, respectively. Last year’s performance testifies to the fact that we are responsive and well-prepared to adapt instantly to new opportunities and challenges arising from changed circumstances, and this is owing to our resilient vertically integrated business model. We will continue to pursue this model also in the future.”
