Update: Biomaterials for sale as LOQTEQ growth takes off

We expect aap to sustain solid growth driven by the international roll-out of LOQTEQ. Re-investing the proceeds of the planned divestment of Biomaterials by the end of Q1 should augment growth in Trauma. Our fair value is €3.17 per share. A €35-40m sale of Biomaterials may prompt a rerating of the fast-growing Trauma business with potential upside to €3.8 per share.
