Ontex issued a severe profit warning which implies the company now expects 4Q25 adjusted EBITDA to land at € 38-43m vs a previous expectation range of € 63-68m, with the downwards revision due to intense competition from A-brands in the baby care segment.

Hence, CPI addresses a concern that has been weighing on the share price. The rights issue take-up amounted to 62.6%. We believe this is a ...
