Novonesis delivered 9% organic sales growth in H1 and full-year outlook range narrowed to 6-8%

COPENHAGEN, Denmark – August 21, 2025. Novonesis delivered 9% organic sales growth in H1 and full-year outlook range narrowed to 6-8%.

Ester Baiget, President & CEO: “I’m very pleased with 9% organic sales growth in the first half of the year. Demand for our biosolutions is strong, and consequently, we are lifting the lower end of our full-year guidance to 6-8% organic sales growth. Our profitability also remains solid, despite strong headwinds from currencies. With a strong foundation in place, we are well positioned to accelerate into our next strategy period until 2030, where we will continue to significantly invest in what makes Novonesis unique, further strengthening our position while expanding the biosolutions market."
