/ Key word(s): Change in Forecast
Medios AG: Earnings guidance for the financial year 2026 reduced – revenue guidance raised at the same time Berlin, July 28, 2026 – Based on preliminary figures, Medios AG (ISIN: DE000A1MMCC8) generated Group revenue in the first half of 2026 surpassing the 1-billion € for the first time (H1 2026: €1,075 million; H1 2025: €991.7 million) and EBITDA pre¹ of approximately €44 million (H1 2025: €46.3 million). Based on this and an updated projection for the full year, the Executive Board today resolved to adjust the earnings guidance for the financial year 2026. Medios now expects EBITDA pre¹ in a range of €88 million to €92 million (previous guidance: €94 million to €102 million). At the same time, the revenue guidance of €2.0 billion to €2.12 billion is raised to a range of €2.1 billion to €2.16 billion. The main reasons for the adjustment of the earnings guidance are the continued price decline for high-margin products in the Pharmaceutical Supply segment as well as deteriorated business prospects in medical cannabis – a direct consequence of the GKV-Beitragssatzstabilisierungsgesetz (Statutory Health Insurance Contribution Rate Stabilization Act) passed by the German Bundestag, which will exclude the reimbursement of cannabis flowers by the statutory health insurance funds in the future and significantly restricts the reimbursement of cannabis-based preparations. These negative effects cannot be offset by the expected revenue increase in the second half of the year. In addition, Medios expects the business performance in the International Business segment in the second half of the year to fall slightly short of expectations. The measures initiated to reduce costs and increase efficiency – including the discontinuation of production at the Aschaffenburg site (while customer supply continues from other Medios sites) as well as the Avanti-Medios-operational excellence program – are taking effect as planned. As a result, the Patient-Specific Therapies segment in Germany will improve its margin in the second half of the year. However, these positive developments will only partially offset the negative effects described above in the financial year 2026. “Medios remains on its growth trajectory. At the same time, price pressure on selected products and the new legislation on medical cannabis are weighing on our earnings. These developments prompt us to further step up our operational excellence program and to focus strategically on business areas in which we can grow profitably,” says Thomas Meier, CEO of Medios AG. Medios will explain further background and details in an analysts’ and investors’ conference call. Additional details on the operating business will be provided as part of the half-year reporting on August 12, 2026, and strategic implications will be presented at our Capital Markets Day on September 28/29. ¹ EBITDA pre as defined in the Annual Report 2025 (p. 138) and the Quarterly Statement Q1 2026 (p. 6).
