CEO’s review
2016 was extraordinary for us in terms of growth and profit improvement. For the full year, net sales grew by 77% over the previous year, and the operating margin reached 20%. Both of our business units, the Medical Business Unit (MBU) and Security and Industrial Business Unit (SBU), performed well and exceeded market growth.
SBU had a fantastic year, and MBU’s sales increased considerably during the second half. In total, we had a good year in meeting the increased customer need with our products and services.
