These acquisitions were consolidated in the reports, but their main impact on the company's results will be reflected over the coming quarters. Furthermore, we recently completed the acquisition of Pronto, a company that operates in the field of molecular genetic diagnostics.

Our goal is to provide an advanced treatment experience and enhance the availability of our services to our customers.
We are proud to maintain a dividend policy and distribute 70% of our profits to shareholders while striving for continued growth and value creation. We remain committed to this goal and will continue to act accordingly."
