Together, We Moved for a Smile – and Made an Impact In October, Karo colleagues around the world joined our annual Move for a Smile challenge in support of Operation Smile Sweden We logged almost 5000 workouts across 24 teams, 293 colleagues and 5 international trade partners, cheering each other on almost 20,000 times through likes, photos, and messages. The result? Beyond stronger connections and a boost of energy, together we helped with 204 life-changing surgeries, giving children born with cleft lip and/or palate the chance to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. At Karo, we keep proving that small actions – and a lot of heart – can make a big difference. One move, one smile at a time.

We're proud to announce an exclusive licensing agreement with Moberg Pharma for the commercialization of MOB-015, a next-generation topical treatment for nail fungus (onychomycosis), across 19 European markets. This agreement further strengthens Karo's position in the foot health category by bringing consumers a clinically proven innovation to market. MOB-015 is a topical terbinafine therapy that has demonstrated efficacy on par with oral treatment - with the added benefit of avoiding systemic exposure. This is a great example of how scientific innovation and strong commercial execution can come together to improve people’s everyday health. https://lnkd.in/dqR6zjzZ #smartchoices #everydayhealthcare Christoffer Lorenzen, Michael Kaltenborn, Lisa Westerdahl, Anna Hale, Jonathan Kimber, Egil Mølsted Madsen, Matt Roberts, Sofia Kyhlstedt, Esad Toric, Tim Gemmeke, Richard Edström, Anna Attman Lennegren, Sally Perry, Estel Filella, Lena Lindgren, Giorgio Paoli, Anna Herlitz

Karo has received GenM Official's MTick® Certification! MTick® is a universal symbol helping consumers easily identify menopause-friendly products, empowering smart choices through visibility and inclusion. Menopause can bring up to 48 symptoms that impact everyday life – yet 87% of women say they feel overlooked by brands. By joining the GenM Collective, Karo is helping change that. This certification spans a range of our portfolio and reinforces our commitment to inclusivity, visibility, and empowerment – helping every body feel more comfortable in their skin. “Women’s health has been overlooked for far too long — especially when it comes to menopause. I’m really proud of Karo’s partnership with GenM and the MTick, helping women find products that truly support them through this stage of life. At Karo, we want everyone to feel seen, heard, and cared for — and this is a small but important step in that direction.” says Anna Hale, Chief Marketing Officer. It is our responsibility to make menopause more visible – and healthcare more inclusive for everyone.

Sustainability is at the core of how we operate at Karo Healthcare. From reducing our climate impact with Science Based Targets, to developing smarter packaging, to working with partners who share our values - we’re committed to doing business in a way that balances today’s needs with care for tomorrow. Consumers are also becoming more informed and conscious in their choices. They want transparency, and they expect responsible alternatives. That’s why our purpose is clear: to create smart choices for everyday healthcare - in a responsible way, for people, society, and the environment. We are proud that this commitment has been recognized in different ways: 💚 Sustainable Supplier of the Year by Apotek Hjärtat, Sweden’s largest pharmacy chain - showing that responsibility shapes how we collaborate and grow. 🌱 Sveriges Apoteksförening Välvald label - the Swedish pharmacy sector’s requirement for more responsible pharmaceutical production. Välvald guides consumers towards OTC medicines produced with respect for human rights, fair working conditions, the environment, and without corruption. Together, these recognitions confirm that sustainability is more than part of our agenda - it’s embedded in how we work and in the trust we build with consumers every day. Because responsible choices can be attractive, trusted, and better for both people and the planet.

We are proud to share that our CEO, Christoffer Lorenzen, has been awarded the Slava Leykind True North Leadership Award at this year’s CG WELL Summit. This is presented annually to one leader in Consumer Health & Wellness who demonstrates values-led judgment, steadiness under pressure, and disciplined execution that creates meaningful impact. #SmartChoices #EverydayHealthcare #leadership
Today at the inaugural CG WELL Summit in New York, we had the honor of presenting the first-ever Slava Leykind True North Leadership Award to Christoffer Lorenzen, CEO of Karo Healthcare. This award was created to celebrate the extraordinary legacy of Slava, a treasured member of our Consumer team for more than two decades. Slava was instrumental in shaping the vision for the CG WELL Summit and is remembered for his integrity, kindness, calm clarity under pressure, ability to build trust, and disciplined execution. These qualities defined his “True North” and consistently delivered impact for clients and colleagues alike. The concept of “True North” was chosen deliberately - symbolizing constancy, direction, and guidance. Just as a compass points unwaveringly north, Slava embodied enduring values of clarity, trust, and excellence. Each year, the Slava Leykind True North Leadership Award will recognize one leader in Consumer Health & Wellness whose values-led judgment, steadiness under pressure, and disciplined execution make a measurable difference. We are proud to honor Christoffer Lorenzen as the inaugural recipient, exemplifying these qualities in a way that continues Slava’s legacy. Today, we not only celebrated leadership - we celebrated Slava. #CGWELLSummit #CGConsumer #CGDrivenByYourSuccess #CGWELL2025 #SlavaLeykindLeadershipAward #LeadershipAward #KaroHealthcare #ChristofferLorenzen
