Advanced Medical expects to deliver 2025 revenue and Ebitda in line with expectations, adding it believes it is well positioned to drive sustained growth, margin expansion and long-term value creation. Chief Executive Officer Chris Meredith said: ‘Integration of last year’s acquisitions remain on track, with improvements to systems and manufacturing being made to reduce backorders, emerging commercial synergies in geographies, such as France and India, and in specialty areas, such as cardiovascular, set to strengthen H2 2025 and beyond. We are also making solid progress toward upcoming US product launches. We believe these initiatives will significantly enhance our earnings growth potential over the medium to long-term.’ Advanced Medical shares rose 1.9% to 211.00 pence each on Wednesday morning in London.
