Krömker GmbH and Haseke GmbH into AMTRION GmbH in September 2022 as an innovation leader in medical technology, initiated a share buyback program of €9 million in 2024 marking a capital allocation strategy shift, and launched the GESCO Business System (GBS) emphasizing lean management, growth and financial processes across four pillars to drive operational excellence, speed and sustainable development targeting CAGR over 7% with at least 5% organic, ROS above 10% and ROCE above 15%.
