CASTEL SAN PIETRO, 24 July 2024 – Medacta Group SA (“Medacta”, SIX:MOVE) announces today the first semester 2024 preliminary unaudited revenue. In the first semester 2024 Medacta delivered robust organic growth, progressing with the acquisition of new customers across all geographies and business lines. Francesco Siccardi, CEO of Medacta, commented: “This is a special year for Medacta. We are celebrating our 25th Anniversary with a World Tour featuring a series of scientific events, underscoring our commitment to sustainable innovation aimed at enhancing care, outcomes, and patient well-being. The excellent performance recorded in this semester (+14.3%) is even more relevant if we consider the extraordinary growth reached in 1H 2023 (+21.4%). This result confirms, once again, our ability to continuously outperform the orthopedic market.” The Medacta 25th Anniversary celebration included the successful 10th M.O.R.E. International Symposium held in Switzerland, in April, followed by a World Tour hosting a series of global scientific events in Australia and the US. These events brought together renowned experts to share knowledge with other surgeons about the sustainability of personalized medicine, and our latest technological innovations in orthopedics and spine surgery. For Knee, there has been a particular focus on Kinematic Alignment (KA), a personalized and innovative technique intended to increase patient satisfaction, together with the initial results of GMK SpheriKA, the world’s first implant specifically designed for this technique. Supply chain remains a key factor to sustain the continued solid growth of the company and the expansion of our facilities in Switzerland is progressing as planned. Revenue by geography Positive performance was recorded in every market headed by strong growth in EMEA, along with continuous progress in North America and APAC. In every region the increase was sustained by a continued expansion of our salesforce and customer base, together with some new products introduction, particularly in the Knee business line through GMK SpheriKA. Below we report the 1H 2024 sales break-down by geographic area:
* Latin America (LATAM): includes revenue from countries located in Latin America which were previously named RoW.

Revenue in North America increased by 11.1% c.c. to Euro 84.9 million, thanks to a remarkable performance by the Knee and Shoulder business lines. Revenue in Asia Pacific rose by 12.6% c.c. to Euro 54.3 million, confirmed a very good pace and a convincing execution in all business lines. Revenue in Latin America was Euro 5.2 million with a robust increase of 22.3% c.c., driven the gain of market share in existing countries.
