"I am very pleased with the strong financial and operational performance of the Company during the year. Our impressive organic revenue growth was supplemented by revenues from Nuvista Pharma, which we acquired in April 2018. Our continued focus on product mix, especially our rapidly growing portfolio across cardiovascular, respiratory and diabetes, further underpinned the continuing sales growth in our domestic market, a trend which we expect to continue. Our export business also performed well as we strengthen our position in US market, which now accounts for 45% of our total export business, and is where we currently have 15 approved ANDAs, including eight products acquired from Sandoz during the year. I am confident we can build on this momentum and continue to build value for our shareholders."
