In EMEA, the robust nine-month growth was offset by a slight decline in activity in Q3 due to the expected price decreases in France and Germany.

In the Americas, Q3 sales were significantly up by 22.2%, benefiting from good sales of Dotarem, the forex effect being neutral over the period. Cumulative like-for-like sales over the nine months were up 16.9% (excluding the contribution of the Montreal plant in Canada sold on July 16, 2020) and excluding the unfavorable forex effect of 11.1million, mainly attributable to the Brazilian real and the US dollar.

In Asia, Japan Q3 sales excluding Forex effect were stable, the country still being impacted by Covid. China remained dynamic with double-digit growth offsetting softer sales with distributors due to base effects.
