Said Darwazah, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Hikma, said:
“Our strong first half performance reflects growth across all three of Hikma’s businesses and geographies.
Across our global operations we have continued to strengthen our businesses and processes, including adding to, and enhancing our manufacturing capabilities. Our investments in R&D have yielded several new product launches and pipeline expansion, broadening our differentiated product portfolio. We continue to win important new contracts and expand in new markets, all of which are enabling Hikma to make more medicines accessible to the healthcare providers and patients who need them most.
I am especially delighted that Riad Mishlawi has been appointed as Hikma’s new CEO, effective 1st September 2023. He has an excellent record of delivering business expansion and profitable growth and has been a close colleague for many years. I look forward to continuing working together and capturing the significant opportunities available to Hikma.”
