Growth, as the source summarises it

Mithra Pharmaceuticals SA may be growing as evidenced by the additional patent granted for NEXTSTELLIS, which indicates an expansion of their intellectual property portfolio. The company has also entered into a licensing agreement with Searchlight Pharma for the commercialization of Donesta in Canada, suggesting an increase in market reach and potential revenue streams. Furthermore, Mithra Pharmaceuticals SA has signed binding general terms with Gedeon Richter to commercialize ESTELLE and Donesta in China, which demonstrates further international expansion and growth in demand for their products.
