contents Let $S$ be a right group. Then there exist two congruences $\sim$ and $\equiv$ on $S$ such that $S$ is the product of its quotient semigroups $S/{\sim}$ and $S/{\equiv}$, where $S/{\sim}$ is a group and $S/{\equiv}$ is a right zero semigroup. If $E$ is the set of all idempotents of $S$ and we fix an element $e_0\in E$, then the pointed right group $(S,e_0)$ is the coproduct of its pointed subsemigroups $(Se_0,e_0)$ and $(E,e_0)$ in the category of pointed right groups. In general, there is a pretorsion theory in the category of right groups in which the torsion objects are right zero semigroups and the torsion-free objects are groups.
