Due to the pandemic, the monthly sales development is compared with sales in 2019 for increased transparency. As such, a slight increase of 1% in May 2021 total product sales was achieved in all markets compared to May 2019. In more detail, May 2021 sales were up by 1% in Germany and by 55% in the remaining European markets compared to May 2019. In the USA, product sales decreased by 7%. The decline was mainly caused by no or lower sales of Aktipak® and Xepi®, respectively, while sales of Ameluz® were at a comparable level.

The recovery in product sales compared to 2020 as well as to 2019, which has been perceived since mid-March 2021, thus continued in May 2021. This indicates a significant recovery of the COVID-19 situation.
