Due to the pandemic, the monthly and quarterly sales development is compared with sales in 2019 for increased transparency. As such, an increase of 19% in June 2021 total product sales was achieved in all markets compared to June 2019. In more detail, June 2021 sales were up by 35% in Germany and by 131% in the remaining European markets compared to June 2019. In the USA, product sales decreased by 10%. The decline was mainly caused by no or lower sales of Aktipak® and Xepi®, respectively, while sales of Ameluz® were at a comparable level.

In Q2 2021, product sales in all markets were up by around 10% compared to Q2 2019. Sales in Q2 2021 increased by around 19% in Germany and by almost 83% in the rest of the European market compared to Q2 2019. Revenue in the US market was down 4%, mainly due to the lack of or lower sales of Aktipak® and Xepi®, while sales of Ameluz® showed a slight increase compared to Q2 2019.
