Gerresheimer AG: Business performance and slower market growth require adjustment of guidance for 2025

Duesseldorf, October 8, 2025. Gerresheimer AG (ISIN: DE000A0LD6E6, "Gerresheimer") is adjusting its guidance for the financial year 2025.

This is due to lower business performance in the third quarter of 2025, continued subdued demand in the cosmetics market as well as in containment solutions for oral liquid medications.

According to preliminary figures, revenue in the third quarter of 2025 amounted to EUR 560.7 million, adjusted EBITDA to EUR 103.4 million, and fx normalized adjusted EPS to EUR 0.77. Organic revenue growth in the third quarter of 2025 was -1.2% compared to the same period last year, with an organic adjusted EBITDA margin of 18.8%. According to preliminary results, Gerresheimer generated positive free cash flow of EUR 21 million in the third quarter of 2025.

According to preliminary results for the third quarter, revenue growth and the adjusted EBITDA margin for the first nine months of the 2025 financial year are lower than expected overall. Even taking into account the expected stronger fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2025, the guidance for the 2025 financial year is therefore not achievable.

For the 2025 financial year, the company now expects organic revenue to decline by between -4% and -2% compared with the previous year (previously organic revenue growth: 0% to 2%) and an adjusted EBITDA margin around 18.5 to 19% (previously: around 20%). The company expects adjusted EPS to decline in the mid-double-digit percentage range compared to the previous year (previously: low double-digit percentage range).

Against the backdrop of the business performance and weaker market growth, Gerresheimer has initiated measures to reduce costs, increase performance, and improve free cash flow. The company will implement a comprehensive transformation program. The program includes more selective investment planning, measures to increase operational and sales performance, and optimization of the global production network. A newly created Transformation Office reporting directly to the CFO will drive the program forward.
