Recorded results are in line with the Company plans for 2009. Company Management believes that throughout the year Bosnalijek showed ability to adopt to fast changing business environment, both on domestic and foreign pharmaceutical markets. Due to the effects of the global economic crisis, which is still present in its full intensity, Bosnalijek  Management expects that the business operations in 2010 will remain difficult. This will especially be felt in the reduced general liquidity caused by the reduced economic activity by both the real and financial sector.
