Extract from comments from the CEO, Dan Pitulia

During the spring and summer we have continued to work towards a profitable business in the US market. Our venture into Managed RPM, under the name Qorum Partners, has strengthened its position and business is picking up momentum, largely due to an investment in clinical staff. Coala Heart Monitor received an additional FDA 510k clearance in the US, for remote lung auscultation and new ECG analysis algorithm, and, in Sweden, the Medical Technology Product Council (MTP Council) recommended the use of Coala Heart Monitor in Swedish healthcare for patients with symptoms of atrial fibrillation. Shortly before the release of this report, we were also able to complete the acquisition of Vitrics in the US.
