After a mixed 2023 financial year, aap makes a strong start to the 2024 financial year - Seite 2

In the operational area, the looming delay in MDR certification could be used for a successful re-certification according to ISO 13485 and monitoring under MDD. The process with the Notified Body for MDR certification has been started and is expected to be completed in 2024 according to the timetable agreed with the Notified Body.

To strengthen the liquidity base, aap evaluates the timely implementation of an initial capital measure. These and other measures are primarily necessary to finance the ongoing activities for aap's antibacterial implant technology, which is causing increased costs due to the acceleration, and secondarily to manage the additional burdens in the trauma business due to the MDR changeover.

The clinical trial is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research ("BMBF"). The grant granted to the company (funding code 13GW0313A+B, 13GW0449A+B) is part of the BMBF's field of action "Healthcare Economy in the Health Research Framework Program" (= funding body). According to the BMBF, projects on the topic of "Transferring medical technology solutions into patient care - proving clinical evidence without delay" will be funded. For further information, please refer to the corresponding guideline on the BMBF website: https://www.bmbf.de/foerderungen/bekanntmachung-1376.html.
