CEO COMMENTARY

We experienced tremendous development during the last 12 months with strong revenue growth and significantly improved earnings. We ended the year with yet another strong quarter reporting profit and a positive cash flow, thereby reinforcing our position as a growth company with a strong sales focus. We were also successful in surpassing our two most important goals for the year – engaging distributors for Nalox™ in additional markets and generating robust revenue growth.

Partnerships are critical to Moberg Derma’s success. This year we expanded our collaboration with our most important partner – Meda OTC – to markets representing a total of around 550 million inhabitants. Furthermore, by entering into an agreement with Menarini, we now have two of the world’s 50 largest pharmaceutical companies as partners. Another key relationship is our collaboration with Alterna in the United States, through which Moberg Derma’s product is now being distributed through leading drugstore and retail chains - CVS, Rite-Aid and Walmart.

In total, we have eight partners covering a number of markets, of which the most important are the Nordic region, the ‘big-five’ EU countries, as well as the U.S., Russia, Turkey and Australia. We are very active in collaborations with distributors and during the year we have regained rights in certain markets where the partnership did not meet our expectations.

Nalox™ strengthened its market-leading position in the Nordic region, with commercial success generating strong growth during the year. The Nordic countries represented almost 80% of product sales revenues. Product launches in other countries are currently ongoing or are planned going forward, generating potential for international expansion and continued strong growth. Thanks to robust sales growth for Nalox™ and milestone payments from Meda, we have reported a profit for the past two quarters, as well as a positive cash flow since listing on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm.

Our aim is to expand our product portfolio and further develop our sales and marketing organization. Our current drug development projects will take some years to reach commercialization. Consequently, we are exploring other opportunities to gain access to products.

Following the commercial success of 2011 and a strong financial position, I look forward to the coming year with great confidence.

Peter Wolpert, CEO
