"In 2022 IMC reworked its strategy," stated Oren Shuster, CEO of IMC. "We shifted our focus to meeting patients' and pharmacies' needs. During Q1 of this year, we have continued this transition. IMC is becoming a lean and agile company, with a clear focus on building brands that consumers love, driven by consumer insight. The strategic shift drove the additional restructuring initiatives we announced this quarter - the reorganization of the company's management and operations to better suit the current market environment and our short- to mid-term objectives. This allowed us to focus on core activities, drive efficiencies and reduce costs in furtherance of the goal to realize sustainable profitability. We are already seeing the results of our shift in strategy in our Q1 results. Our gross profit increased 46% compared to Q1 2022, while our revenue stayed stable."
