CEO Comments

"The second quarter of 2021 showed some positive operational highlights in both our Digital Therapeutics (DTx) business and US Pharma. In DTx, I'm pleased to announce we've among others reached a commercial agreement with Trinity Health North Dakota. As a result, vorvida® and deprexis® are now also available for patients at their healthcare centers and hospitals. This is a major milestone and is already now an inspiring model for other healthcare providers in the US. In our US Pharma business, it was confirmed that ZUBSOLV® is available for patients within Medicaid in Kentucky since July 1, representing a growth opportunity for our lead pharma product."
