Getinge Year End Report 2021: "Healthy order growth, improved EBITA margin and strong cash flow"
Getinge reported a 6.4% increase in organic order intake for Q4 2021, driven by growth across all business areas.

For the full year 2022, organic sales growth is expected to range between 4-6%.

GOTHENBURG, Sweden, Jan. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- "The organic order intake increased
As expected, Getinge's net sales declined compared with Q4 2020 which saw large deliveries of ICU ventilators. Demand for products for life supporting ECMO therapy and Sterile Transfer remains strong, while other parts of the operations are demonstrating a stable recovery. In particular, this applies to Surgical Workflows, which also displayed robust margin expansion. Sales of products for planned cardiovascular procedures also increased despite continuing challenges related to COVID-19.
"We are continuing to implement our strategy - focusing on our most attractive growth areas", says Mattias Perjos, President & CEO at Getinge. "An example of this is the acquisition of Talis Clinical, a US-based leading innovator of High Acuity cloud-based software solutions. Talis' offering is the perfect complement to our strong offering in surgery, critical care support and ECMO therapy."
Improvements to the operations are continuing to generate effects in the form of a high EBITA margin and strong cash flows, meaning that Getinge is consolidating its solid financial position and also have scope for attractive acquisitions.
Getinge expects the organic sales growth to be in the upper part of the range of 4
