* Audited data Revenues increased 18.2% to €1,080 thousand in the second quarter of 2014 compared with €913 thousand in the same quarter of 2013. For the first half of 2014, sales rose 18.0% to €1,934 thousand from €1,638.4 thousand for the same period in 2013.

Gonzague Issenmann, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of STENTYS, commented: "Following a good first half, revenues should continue growing at a steady rate during the second half of the year, primarily as a result of the commercial development in recently opened regions (South America, Asia) and the CE marking of our Sirolimus-eluting stent which is expected before the end of the year."
STENTYS expects to publish its financial results for the first half of 2014 on August 28, 2014.
