Medios starts 2025 financial year successfully with significant increase in earnings

• Revenue up 6.2% to €484.7 million in the first quarter
• Significantly higher increase in EBITDA pre¹ of 52.9% to €23.1 million with margin improvement to 4.8%
• Earnings per share increased to €0.25 from €0.17 in Q1 2024
• 2025 forecast confirmed: Further revenue and earnings growth expected

Berlin, May 13, 2025 – The Medios-Group (“Medios“ or “the Company”), a leading provider of Specialty Pharma in Europe, started the 2025 financial year with a positive performance in the first quarter and confirms its forecast for the full year. Revenue increased by 6.2% to €484.7 million compared to €456.2 million in Q1 2024. EBITDA pre¹ increased significantly by 52.9% to €23.1 million (Q1 2024: €15.1 million). Organic EBITDA pre¹ growth amounted to 4.6%. This resulted in an improvement in the EBITDA pre¹ margin of 1.5 percentage points to 4.8% (Q1 2024: 3.3%). Consolidated earnings after tax also improved significantly to €6.4 million (Q1 2024: €4.0 million), mainly due to the absence of one-off effects. Earnings per share thus rose to €0.25 (Q1 2024: €0.17).

The cash flow from operating activities in the reporting period was lower than in the same period of the previous year at €3.6 million (Q1 2024: €43.4 million) due to changes in net working capital as of the reporting date.

Matthias Gaertner, CEO of Medios AG: “We had a strong start to 2025. Revenue has grown once again, but our earnings have developed even more strongly – driven by positive momentum from all operating segments and our strategic focus on higher-margin products. As a result, we have already achieved our target margin for the full year in the first quarter and are continuing on our growth course.”

Increased earnings in all operating segments

The Pharmaceutical Supply segment posted revenue of €389.2 million in the first quarter of 2025 (Q1 2024: €401.0 million). EBITDA pre¹ for the division increased significantly by 7.0% to €11.8 million (Q1 2024: €11.0 million) as a result of the strategic focus on higher-margin products.

The Patient-Specific Therapies segment achieved a slight increase in revenue to €55.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 (Q1 2024: €55.1 million). EBITDA pre¹ for the segment improved by 6.4% to €6.3 million (previous year: €5.9 million).

The International Business segment, which comprises the activities of Ceban Pharmaceuticals B.V., included in the scope of consolidation since June 1, 2024, generated revenue of €39.5 million and EBITDA pre¹ of €7.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. The segment thus made a significant contribution to the positive performance of the Medios Group.

Positive outlook confirmed

Medios confirms its forecast for the 2025 financial year. The Company expects revenues to increase by around 6% to approx. €2 billion. EBITDA pre¹ is expected to increase again disproportionately by approx. 21.5% to around €96 million. This corresponds to a further increase in the EBITDA pre¹ margin to around 4.8%. This expectation is based on the assumption of organic growth in the mid-single-digit percentage range and takes into account the consolidation of the Ceban Group for twelve months.

The Medios Quarterly Statement as of March 31, 2025, will be available for download on the Investor Relations website.
