Hugel Inc (145020 KS) achieved revenue and operating profit of KRW105B and KRW53B in 3Q24, up 24% and 55%, YoY, respectively. Both botulinum toxin and fillers performed strongly.
Botulinum toxin's overseas sales jumped 73% YoY during the quarter, thanks to the initial shipment to the U.S. in July and September and robust growth from the Asia-Pacific market.
After the favorable ruling of ITC, Hugel plans to officially launch Botulax later this year in the U.S. market via collaborations with its California-based partner Benev Company.
