Aubagne, France | October 16, 2025

Sartorius Stedim Biotech publishes unaudited results for the first nine months of 2025
  • Sales revenue reaches 2,195 million euros, up by a double-digit 10.2 percent in constant currencies (reported: 8.2 percent)
  • High-margin consumables business records continued significant growth
  • Underlying EBITDA1 increases by 21.0 percent to 683 million euros, outpacing sales revenue growth; underlying EBITDA margin climbs to 31.1 percent
  • Management sharpens full-year guidance at upper end of forecast range             

Sartorius Stedim Biotech, a leading partner to the biopharmaceutical industry, maintained its dynamic growth path with significant increases in sales revenue and profitability in the first three quarters of the fiscal year.

“Sartorius Stedim Biotech delivered a strong performance in the first nine months of the year, driven by substantial, double-digit growth in our consumables business. While customers are still hesitant to invest, we do see our bioprocessing equipment business stabilizing. In light of these positive developments, we are very confident about the remainder of the year and have sharpened our 2025 forecast at the upper end of the previously defined range,” said Dr. René Fáber, CEO of Sartorius Stedim Biotech. “Our biopharma customers are under increasing pressure to accelerate timelines and cut costs for innovative therapies – while patients await breakthrough treatments. We support them with a portfolio designed to simplify processes, intensify production, and scale up with confidence.”

Business development1
In the first nine months of fiscal 2025, Sartorius Stedim Biotech recorded a significant increase in sales revenue of 10.2 percent in constant currencies, reaching 2,195 million euros. The reported growth rate stood at 8.2 percent, mainly due to the depreciation of the US dollar. The development was driven by the high-margin business with consumables for the manufacture of biopharmaceuticals, which continued its strong growth trend. While remaining soft due to the industry-wide reluctance of customers to invest, business with bioprocess equipment and systems is stabilizing. All regions contributed to the positive development: Sales revenue in the Americas and Asia/Pacific regions saw double-digit growth, up 11.8 percent and 11.2 percent respectively in constant currencies. In the EMEA region, where business recovery had already begun earlier, sales revenue rose by 8.4 percent.

Underlying EBITDA grew even more strongly than sales revenue, increasing by 21.0 percent to 683 million euros, mainly due to volume, product mix, and scale effects. The corresponding margin grew strongly by 3.3 percentage points to 31.1 percent (PY: 27.8 percent).

Underlying net profit was up significantly by 34.3 percent and reached 320 million euros (PY: 238 million euros), while net profit after non-controlling interest surged by 68.5 percent to 218 million euros (PY: 129 million euros). Underlying earnings per share climbed to 3.28 euros (PY: 2.46 euros), and earnings per share to 2.24 euros (PY: 1.34 euros).

As of September 30, 2025, Sartorius Stedim Biotech employed 10,134 people – an increase of 233 employees compared to the end of 2024, mainly due to the hiring of additional production personnel.

Between January and September, the company expanded its product portfolio to further enhance productivity in drug manufacturing, including new offerings for process intensification. Additionally, in the third quarter, Sartorius Stedim Biotech introduced an enhanced filtration solution for monoclonal antibodies, which enables shorter processes and reduces water consumption, as well as new software solutions for bioprocesses. The company also entered into a collaboration with the US start-up Nanotein Technologies to advance the commercialization and development of innovative reagents that promote cell activation and expansion in cell therapy manufacturing.

Key financial indicators
Sartorius Stedim Biotech’s balance sheet and key financial figures remain at very robust levels. Equity amounted to 4,072 million euros as of September 30, 2025, with an equity ratio1 of 51.7 percent (December 31, 2024: 4,024 million euros and 48.7 percent, respectively).

Investments in the company’s global research and production infrastructure amounted to 276 million euros compared with 260 million euros in the prior-year period. The ratio of capital expenditures to sales revenue increased over the year, as planned, reaching 12.6 percent by the end of September (PY 12.8 percent).

Gross debt totaled 2,563 million euros, net debt 2,264 million euros (December 31, 2024: 2,869 million euros and 2,191 million euros, respectively). As planned, the ratio of net debt to underlying EBITDA1 was reduced further and stood at 2.5 (December 31, 2024: 2.8).

Guidance for fiscal 2025 specified 
Based on the year-to-date results and taking into account the anticipated impact of existing tariffs as well as the strong basis for comparison of the fourth quarter of 2024, management further sharpens its full-year guidance at the upper end of the forecast range. The company now expects sales revenue growth of around 9 percent (previously: 7 percent with a forecast range of around plus/minus two percentage points). In terms of profitability, management anticipates an underlying EBITDA margin of around 31 percent (previously: around 30 to 31 percent).
 
The forecast for the ratio of capital expenditures to sales revenue remains unchanged at around 13 percent, and the ratio of net debt to underlying EBITDA1 is still expected to be at around 2.5.
