Frankfurt trade after the online pharmacy beat Q2 EBITDA
estimates and raised 2023 sales and margin guidance
** Redcare reports Q2 adjusted EBITDA of 11.9 million euros
($13.1 million), excluding MediService AG; this was above
consensus, according to a local trader
** The company sees non-prescription drug sales growth of
20-30%, up from 10-20%, and adj. EBITDA margin of 1.5%-3%, up
from 0.5%-2.5% previously

hoped for," the trader says
