"Total revenues in the third quarter were SEK 786 M, an increase of 18 per cent - 8 per cent at constant exchange rates - over the prior year. Gross margin was in line with our expectations, and cash flow increased significantly compared to the same period last year."

Outlook 2015 - EBITA range revised
Sobi expects total revenues for the full year to be in the range of SEK 3,000 to 3,200 M, and gross margin to be in the range of 59 to 61 per cent. Operating costs are projected to increase as the company continues to prepare for the planned launch of Elocta.
