Comment to the report
When evaluating the key figures such as EBITDA for the second quarter of 2025, it's important to note that Stenocare has implemented the STENOCARE 3.0 strategy including exiting the Danish cultivation facility, completed a share issue in January 2025 and adopted the revenue recognition better to reflect the retail sell-out to pharmacies and patients.
The highlights in numbers for the operations in the period are summarized as follows:
- Sales has increased by 131% to 1,718,680 DKK over same period in 2024
- Other external expenses including cost of goods sold are reduced by 37% to 1,141,929 DKK
- Personnel expenses are reduced by 67% to 557,543 DKK
- EBITDA (operating profit before depreciation) is a profit of 19,208 DKK
Highlights during the period:
April 2025 - The Company and its local partner have successfully secured approval for the reimbursement of the innovative ASTRUM 10-10 product by major German health insurance providers.

May 2025 - The Company announce that the Danish Parliament has officially passed legislation to make Denmark's medical cannabis program permanent.
