GENERAL MARKET AND HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT

 

Trends in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sector

 

The biopharmaceutical industry continues to operate in a selective and evolving market environment in 2026. Although early-stage drug discovery funding remains constrained, signs of stabilization are emerging, reflected in increased financing, partnering and M&A activity across the sector. However, customers continue to act cautiously amid ongoing economic, regulatory and geopolitical uncertainties, and any broader recovery in demand is expected to occur gradually. For further information, please see the “Macroeconomic conditions and business environment” section of the 2025 Annual Report.

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL SITUATION AND RESULTS

 

1. Results of operations

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, Group revenue decreased by 19.2% to € 300.1 m compared with € 371.2 m in the corresponding period of the prior year. At constant exchange rates, Group revenue declined by 15.6% to 313.2 m compared with € 371.2 m in the prior-year period. Base revenues decreased by 17.8% from € 347.5 m in 6M 2025 to € 285.8 m in 6M 2026.

 

Revenue in the Discovery & Preclinical Development (D&PD) segment (including intersegment revenue) declined by 15.2% to € 228.1 m in 6M 2026, compared with € 269.0 m in the prior-year period. The decrease was primarily driven by weak sales conversion across all business areas and softer-than-expected customer demand, reflecting the continued challenging market environment.

 

Revenue from Just – Evotec Biologics (JEB) decreased by 29.3% to € 72.3 m in 6M 2026, down from € 102.2 m in the prior-year period. The decline was primarily driven by the Sandoz License sale in Q1 2025. Excluding Sandoz License sale and negative FX-impact, revenues decreased by 2.3%.

 

Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 amounted to € 303.3 m compared with € 320.9 m in the corresponding period of 2025, resulting in a gross margin of (1.0)% (6M 2025: 13.6%). The decrease in cost of revenue was primarily driven by lower personnel and material costs in the D&PD segment.

 

Within D&PD, cost of revenue totaled € 218.0 m for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with € 228.0 m in the prior-year period. Gross margin decreased to 4.4% from 15.3% in 6M 2025, primarily driven by a lower top-line performance. D&PD saw continued underutilization which is being addressed as part of Project Horizon. Within JEB, cost of revenue decreased to € 85.5 m in the first six months of 2026, compared to € 92.9 m in the corresponding period of 2025. Gross margin declined to (18.3)% compared with 9.1% in the first six months of 2025, reflecting delayed program activities, temporarily higher material and project costs due to production phasing as well as the Sandoz License sale in Q1 2025.

 

R&D expenses decreased to € 20.3 m, compared to € 29.4 m in the six months ended June 30, 2025 (30.8%), driven by more focused capital allocation to selected R&D projects. Research and development expenses were incurred predominantly within the D&PD segment.

 

SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 amounted to € 83.1 m, representing a decrease of € 10.3 m or 11.1%, compared with € 93.4 m in the first six months of 2025. This change was primarily attributable to lower SG&A expenses within the D&PD segment, which declined to € 66.5 m from € 77.8 m in the first six months of 2025, mainly driven by lower IT business consultancy expenses.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, other operating income amounted to € 22.0 m, compared with € 29.6 m in the corresponding prior-year period. The year-on-year decrease was primarily driven by the D&PD segment, where other operating income declined to € 21.0 m (6M 2025: € 27.9 m), mainly reflecting a € 7.5 m one-off insurance reimbursement related to the cyber-attack received in 2025, which did not recur in 2026.

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

Other operating expenses increased from € 5.6 m in the first six months 2025 to € 51.2 m in the first six months 2026. The increase was primarily attributable to an impairment loss of € 42.3 m in the D&PD segment relating to a laboratory building in Hamburg, recognized during 2026.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2026 Reorganization costs amounted to € 98.9 m, reflecting expenses for provisions and asset impairments related to the recently announced Project Horizon.

 

Adjusted Group EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2026 represented a loss of € 42.7 m (6M 2025: loss of € 1.9 m) mainly caused by lower revenue, partially offset by lower cost of revenue as well as reduced R&D and SG&A expenses. The adjusted EBITDA of the D&PD segment was a loss of € 24.4 m (6M 2025: loss of € 9.3 m), primarily caused by the reduced top-line performance. The adjusted EBITDA within JEB has decreased to a loss of €18.2 m (6M 2025: income of € 7.5 m), primarily driven by the non-recurring Sandoz License sale in Q1 2025.

 

The net loss as of June 30, 2026 totaled € 168.6 m (6M 2025: loss of € 75.1 m). The year-on-year increase in net loss was mainly driven by reorganization costs incurred in connection with the Horizon project, asset impairments and lower revenues during the period. These adverse effects were partially offset by higher non-operating income, including realized gains on investments, notably from the recent sale of Tubulis GmbH.

 

2. Cash flows and financial position

 

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in the first six months ended June 30, 2026 was € (111.1) m compared with € (5.3) m in the first six months 2025. This year’s figure was largely driven by lower operating performance.

 

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 amounted to € 7.1 m (6M 2025: € (43.6) m). The increase was primarily attributable to the proceeds of € 89.3 m from the disposal of Tubulis GmbH. Conversely, the net cashflow from current investments (net) amounted to € (59.1) m (6M 2025: € 9.6 m) and originated from the net purchase of coupon bonds and money market funds. Capital expenditure decreased to € (13.3) m (6M 2025: € (37.6) m), primarily reflecting reduced investment after the sale of JUST EU at the end of 2025.

 

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was € 33.8 m in the six months ended June 30, 2026 (6M 2025: € 20.7 m) which mainly resulted from proceeds from convertible bonds and other loans of € 112.9 m (6M 2025: € 43.5 m), partially offset by repayments of loans and lease liabilities amounting to € 76.3 m. In comparison, the six months ended June 30, 2025 were negatively affected by loan repayments of € 19.3 m.

 

Total Liquidity decreased to € 465.6 m (31 December 2025: € 476.4 m).

 

3. Assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity

 

Assets

 

Between December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, total assets decreased by € 140.0 m to € 1,574.0 m (31 December 2025: € 1,713.9 m).

 

Investments increased by € 59.4 m to € 117.2 m (31 December 2025: € 57.9 m ). The increase was mainly due to the purchase of money market funds and short-term deposits.

 

Trade and other receivables decreased by € 39.6 m to € 96.4 m (December 31, 2025: € 136.0 m). The decrease was mainly due to cash receipts related to the License Agreement signed in December 2025 as part of the Sandoz transaction.

 

Property, plant and equipment decreased by € 104.9 m to € 449.8 m (December 31, 2025: € 554.6 m). The decrease was mainly due to impairment and depreciation of € 81.5 m and € 44.6 m, respectively, that exceeded capital expenditures of € 14.2 m and a positive foreign exchange effect totaling € 6.1 m.

 

7

 

 

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

Liabilities

 

Between December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, total liabilities increased by € 8.2 m to € 908.4 m (31 December 2025: € 900.2 m).

 

Current and Non-current financial liabilities increased by € 27.1 m to € 475.9 m (31 December 2025: € 448.7 m). The increase was mainly due to € 104.5 m of issuance of convertible bonds, partially offset by € 76.3 m of repayments of loans and lease liabilities.

 

Trade and other payables decreased by € 15.6 m to € 49.1 m (31 December 2025: € 64.8 m). The decrease occurred in the normal course of business.

Current and Non-current contract liabilities decreased by € 45.1 m to € 205.1 m (December 31, 2025: € 250.2 m). The decrease occurred as a result of greater revenue earned versus upfront payments received.

 

Current and Non-current provisions increased by € 42.4 m to € 119.0 m (December 31, 2025: € 76.6 m), mainly due to Horizon, including € 48.6 m attributable to personnel measures (including severance payments) and € 10.6 m attributable to the recognition of restoration obligations for impacted leases. The provision increase due to Horizon was partially offset by € 16.6 m in reductions in short-term incentive accruals.

 

Stockholders’ equity

 

Total stockholders’ equity decreased by € 148.1 m to € 665.6 m (December 31, 2025: € 813.7 m) predominantly as a result of the net loss of the six months ended June 30, 2026 of € 168.6 m, a positive change in other comprehensive income of € 9.3 m driven by foreign currency translation adjustments and a positive change in additional paid-in capital of € 10.4 m driven by the recognition of € 8.4 m related to the issuance of convertible bonds.

 

Evotec’s equity ratio as of June 30, 2026 decreased to 42.3% (December 31, 2025: 47.5%).

 

4. Human Resources

 

Employees

 

Headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, the Evotec Group employed an average of 4,461 people globally as of June 30, 2026, which corresponds to a decrease of 6.2% to the prior year’s end. Overall, the number of employees decreased by 296 compared to the twelve months average ended December 31, 2025 with 4,757 . The decrease primarily reflects the divestiture of Just –Evotec Biologics EU, completed in December 2025, as well as workforce reductions associated with Project Horizon during H1 2026. Other workforce movements also contributed to the overall decrease in employee headcount.

 

RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES MANAGEMENT

 

The risks and opportunities described in Evotec’s ‘Risk and Opportunities Report’ of the 2025 Annual Report remain mainly unchanged.

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Corporate information

 

Evotec SE, including its subsidiaries and other affiliates ("Evotec", the "Group" or the "Company") is a life science company, continuously driving innovative approaches to develop new pharmaceutical products. Our offerings range from standalone services to fully integrated R&D programs and long-term strategic partnerships with leading pharma and biotechnology companies as well as academic institutions, patient advocacy groups and venture capital partners.

 

Evotec SE, located in Hamburg (Essener Bogen 7, 22419 Hamburg, Germany) is registered in the Commercial Registry of Hamburg with HRB 156381.

 

The Company was founded on 8 December 1993, and is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (XETRA) since 10 November 1999, Segment Prime Standard, under the ticker “EVT“ as well as on Nasdaq, New York, USA under the trading symbol “EVO“ since 8 November 2021.

 

2. Basis of Preparation

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2026, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as endorsed in the European Union. The Group has prepared the interim condensed consolidated financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. The Group considers that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt over this assumption. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

All majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company are included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, and intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Euros. Due to rounding, amounts may not add up to totals provided.

 

Prior-period information

 

Certain prior-period amounts have been adjusted to reflect the current period presentation, following the completion of a Group reorganization that revised the functional allocation of cost centers primarily related to the In Silico & Bioinformatics and Alliance Management departments. To ensure comparability, the corresponding prior-year figures were adjusted accordingly. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, costs of € 14,541k previously presented as Cost of revenue have been reclassified to Research and development and Selling, general and administrative expenses in the amount of € 10,439k and € 4,102k, respectively.

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

3. New Standards, Interpretations and Amendments adopted by the Group

 

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the adoption of the new amendments described below.

 

The following amendments became effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, and have been adopted by the Group in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements:

 

Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments

 

Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Power Purchase Agreements

 

Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - Volume 11

 

The adoption of these amendments did not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

 

Evotec has not early adopted any new standards, interpretations, or amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective. The most significant of these is IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. IFRS 18 is expected to change the presentation of the Consolidated Income Statement, differentiating between earnings from operating, investing, and financing activities, and will require structural changes to the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, including use of operating profit (loss) as the starting point for the indirect method reconciliation. IFRS 18 will also introduce additional disclosures, including for management-defined performance measures, but will not change the recognition or measurement of transactions and balances, and therefore will not change reported net income. The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of IFRS 18 and, at this stage, is not yet able to reasonably estimate its effect on the consolidated financial statements.

 

Apart from IFRS 18, the Group has also assessed IFRS 19, Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures (effective January 1, 2027), and IFRS 20, Regulatory Assets and Regulatory Liabilities (effective January 1, 2029), and concluded that neither standard is expected to be relevant to the Group's operations or to have a material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

 

4. Significant Events during the Reporting Period

 

The Supervisory Board of Evotec SE appointed Claire Hinshelwood as the new Chief Financial Officer and member of the Management Board to succeed Paul Hitchin, with effect from May 1, 2026, and Ingrid Müller as the new Chief Operating Officer and member of the Management Board, with effect from May 1, 2026.

 

On March 10, 2026, Evotec announced ‘Horizon’, the next phase in its multi-stage transformation initiative. Horizon advances the company’s evolution by implementing a new and focused operating model built across the three pillars of operations, science, and commercial execution. For the six months ended June 2026, Evotec recorded reorganization costs totaling € 98,924k. These costs are directly attributable to the restructuring measures that are necessary for the restructuring and are not related to operating activities. Further details are provided in Note 8 Property, Plant and Equipment, and Note 11 Restructuring Provision.

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

On May 11, 2026, Evotec SE announced its intention to issue senior unsecured convertible bonds due 2033 to finance Project Horizon, and on May 21, 2026 priced and issued the bonds in a final aggregate principal amount of € 116,100k, convertible into new and/or existing ordinary bearer shares at an initial Conversion Price of € 6.5313. The bonds have been accounted for as a compound financial instrument under IAS 32, with the liability component recognized at amortized cost and the residual equity component recognized within additional paid-in capital, together with the related allocation of transaction costs; further details are provided in Note 13 Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities.

 

The sale of Tubulis GmbH to Gilead Sciences was completed on May 21, 2026, for a total consideration of € 93,652k. The European Investment Bank was entitled to 5.25% of the transaction proceeds. Consequently, Evotec received net cash proceeds of € 89,339k. A gain on disposal of € 71,929k was recognized within 'Realized gain (loss) on investments and financial instruments revaluation.’ Through its Evotec Ventures activities, Evotec SE held a 3.14% minority equity stake in Tubulis GmbH.

 

Management’s decision in June to actively market a laboratory building at the Company’s Hamburg headquarters for sublease led to the recognition of an impairment loss of €42,337k on this asset. Further details are provided in Note 8 Property, Plant and Equipment.

Total Revenue     268,969       102,244       371,213  

 

7. Income Taxes

 

The income tax amounted to a benefit of € 1,715k for the first six months until June 30, 2026 compared to an expense of € 1,785k for the six months ended June 30, 2025. This change is mainly driven by the fact that in 2026, deferred taxes were recognized on current losses in Italy and UK.

 

8. Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment amounted to € 449,773k as of June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025: € 554,626k) and included owned property, plant and equipment as well as right-of-use assets. The decrease of € 104,853k is mainly due to impairment and depreciation (€ 81,482k and € 44,626k, respectively) that exceeded capital expenditures of € 14,176k and a positive foreign exchange effect totaling € 6,108k.

 

Following the announcement of Project Horizon, the Group reassessed lease terms, restoration obligations and the recoverability of right-of-use assets and leasehold improvements at affected sites. This resulted in a decrease in right-of-use assets of € 9,123k from lease remeasurements, an increase in right-of-use assets and provisions of € 8,804k relating to restoration obligations, and an impairment loss of € 41,916k which was allocated to the D&PD segment and disclosed within reorganization costs. Estimates and assumptions are regularly reviewed as the restructuring program progresses.

 

Following management’s decision in June 2026 to actively market a laboratory building at the Company’s Hamburg headquarters for sublease, the asset was assessed for impairment on a stand-alone basis. This assessment resulted in the recognition of an impairment loss of €42,337k, which was allocated to the D&PD segment and disclosed within other operating expenses.

 

The group determined the recoverable amounts of the right-of-use assets tested for impairment on a stand-alone basis based on fair value less costs of disposal. The fair value measurement was categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and took into account real estate market conditions specific to each building.

9. Intangible Assets and Goodwill

 

Goodwill:

 

Goodwill amounted to € 274,681k as of June 30, 2026, versus € 272,365k as of as of December 31, 2025. The movement during the period was due to the impact of changes in exchange rates.

 

The Group performs its annual impairment test over goodwill in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The Group’s impairment test for goodwill is based on the fair-value less costs to sell methodology.

 

The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different cash generating units are disclosed in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

Based on the analysis of the business performance as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as well as on the updated guidance issued on July 13, 2026 for FY2026 and taking into account the sensitivity analysis performed, the Group has not identified any impairment trigger.

 

Finite lived intangible assets:

 

The Group also reviews its finite lived intangible assets for impairment whenever triggering events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Following this review, the Group has not identified any impairment trigger.

 

10. Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which comprises forward purchase contracts, restricted shares, performance shares and share options granted to employees. As Evotec reports a net loss all share equivalents are anti-dilutive, so that diluted and non-diluted (basic) earnings per share are identical (see “Net result per share (basic)” and “Net result per share (diluted)” in the Consolidated Income Statement).

 

21

 

 

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

The weighted average number of ordinary shares is calculated as follows:

 

Shares in thousands   06/30/2026     12/31/2025  
Issued shares Jan 1     177,779       177,553  
Treasury shares Jan 1     (320 )     (167 )
Effect of weighted average stock options exercised     159       192  
Weighted average number of shares outstanding     177,618       177,578  

 

The share capital of € 177,910k was divided into 177,909,559 shares. The increase in shares outstanding is related to the exercise of stock options (see Note 14).

 

11. Restructuring Provision

 

Significant portions of the restructuring provision include € 48,568k attributable to personnel measures (including severance payments) and € 10,593k attributable to restoration obligations.

 

The measurement of restructuring provisions is based on estimates and assumptions regarding the amount of severance payments, the timeline for the implementation of the measures and the progress of discussions in accordance with local laws and regulations. The measurement assumptions are regularly reviewed as the restructuring program progresses.

 

12. Financial Risk Management

 

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks such as currency risks, interest rate risks, credit risks and liquidity risks. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information. Additional disclosures can be found in the “Risks and opportunities” described in Evotec’s Annual Report 2025.

 

There have not been significant changes to the risk management approach or to risk management policies since December 31, 2025.

 

13. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

 

The Group classifies its fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

 

▪ Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date. This includes e.g. bonds, money market funds, shares and other current cash investments.

 

▪ Level 2 – all significant inputs (other than quoted prices included within Level 1) are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). This includes equity investments in unlisted companies measured based on observable prices close to the balance sheet date, derivative financial instruments with a hedging relationship measured based on spot and forward rates observable in the market, as well as the liability component of issued convertible bonds measured using an observable market interest rate.

 

▪ Level 3 – one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, such as third-party pricing information without adjustments, for the asset or liability. This includes equity investments in unlisted companies measured using the net asset value as a proxy for the fair value of the investment (Net-Asset-Value-Method).

INTERIM STATEMENT 6M 2026  

 

The valuation processes, valuation techniques, and types of inputs used for the fair value measurement of the financial instruments previously disclosed in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 have remained unchanged.

During the first half of 2026, the Group recognized additional financial instruments measured at fair value. The valuation techniques and significant inputs used for these instruments are described above.

 

Apart from borrowings, the Group considers the carrying value of the financial instruments to approximate their fair value.

 

The carrying amounts and fair values of the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value and at amortized cost as of June 30, 2026 and as of December 31, 2025 are shown in the tables below.

As of June 30, 2026, minority investments for a total of € 3,830k have been transferred from Level 2 to Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the observable market inputs previously used in the valuation process were no longer considered applicable.

 

14. Share based Payments

 

In March 2026, 2,179,470 Share Performance Awards were granted. Thereof, 620,553 were granted to members of the Management Board and the remaining 1,558,917 to other key employees. The exercise price of the options was € 1.00 for both Management Board members and other key employees. The "Fair Market Value” (FMV), which represents the present value of the respective option rights at the Grant Date, is calculated as of January 1 of the respective year. The fair value of the Share Performance Awards on January 1, 2026 was € 5.62 and the share price on the Grant Date, March 20, 2026, was € 4.30.

 

The fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was estimated on the Grant Date using the following assumptions:

 

Expected dividend yield     %
Expected volatility of Evotec share     59.00 %
Risk-free interest rate     2.65 %
Expected life of share options (years)     4  

 

In addition, a total of 1,628,100 Restricted Share Units were granted in the six months ended June 30, 2026. These Restricted Share Units were granted exclusively to key employees. The fair value of the Restricted Share Units on January 1, 2026 was $ 4.01 and the share price on the Grant Date, March 20, 2026, was $ 3.07.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Group recognized € 2,582k of share-based compensation expense in the income statement (6M 2025: € 3,246k).

 

During the first half of 2026, employees and members of the Management Board exercised 98,875 Share Performance Awards, 31,777 Restricted Share Awards as well as 133,290 Restricted Share Units, which were settled using treasury shares.

Dr. Christian Wojczewski, Chief Executive Officer of Evotec, said:

 

“While the first half of 2026 results reflect the challenging start to the year previously anticipated, we are seeing clear and encouraging signs that our actions are gaining traction. Commercial activity is improving across both segments, with strong growth in D&PD base net sales, increasing customer engagement and continued momentum at Just – Evotec Biologics. At the same time, Horizon is progressing according to plan, supporting greater focus, accountability and efficiency across the organization. While the financial benefits of these developments will take time to fully materialize, they represent important building blocks for recovery and the next phase of growth. We continue to see attractive opportunities across both segments and remain confident in the strength of our strategic partnership pipeline, with a significant portion of opportunities progressing through advanced discussions. Our continued investment in next-generation discovery capabilities, including our proteomics and transcriptomics platforms, strengthens our scientific differentiation, enhances the quality of our partner offerings and expands future opportunities for strategic collaborations.”

 

Selected Business Highlights

 

Strategic Partnership Pipeline

 

Evotec maintains an active strategic partnership opportunity pipeline, supported by ongoing discussions across a broad range of therapeutic areas and modalities. The Company is actively advancing opportunities at various stages of evaluation, including a significant number in advanced due diligence and term sheet discussions. While Evotec remains confident in its ability to enter new strategic partnerships in 2026, the timing, complexity and revenue ramp-up associated with individual agreements remain inherently variable and are reflected in the Company's updated full-year 2026 outlook.

 

As communicated in the outlook update on July 14, 2026, Evotec expects lower contributions from both existing and potential new strategic partnerships in 2026 than previously anticipated. Approximately 40% of the reduction in expected full-year 2026 revenue relative to the previous outlook reflects revised project phasing and milestone schedules for existing partnerships, with the associated revenues now expected to be recognized in 2027. Approximately 45% reflects lower-than-anticipated contributions from potential new strategic partnerships due to the timing of agreement execution and development activities. Approximately 15% is attributable to lower-than-expected revenue conversion against the Company’s internal ambition for accelerated sales-to-revenue conversion, with the associated revenues now also expected to shift into 2027.

 

Commercial Execution

 

Commercial execution remains a key focus area of the Horizon transformation and an important driver of Evotec's path to recovery. Within the Horizon transformation, the Company has strengthened its commercial organization, sharpened customer focus and enhanced business development processes across both segments. These efforts are increasingly reflected in commercial indicators, including higher customer engagement, growing new business activity and improved sales effectiveness.

 

Page 2 of 6 

 

 

 

 

Commercial momentum across Evotec’s base CRO and CDMO businesses strengthened during the first half of 2026. In Drug Discovery & Preclinical Development (D&PD), net sales increased by more than 28% year-on-year, reflecting improved customer engagement and commercial execution. Just – Evotec Biologics continues to demonstrate positive operating momentum as well, supported by high-capacity utilization and expansion of its customer base.

 

Based on the typical conversion cycle between sales generation and revenue recognition, increased commercial activity in D&PD is expected to contribute increasingly to revenues from the fourth quarter of 2026 onwards.

 

Governance Update: Supervisory Board Transition

 

Camilla Macapili Languille has decided to step down from Evotec's Supervisory Board effective August 7, 2026. Since her appointment in June 2022, she has served as an independent Supervisory Board member and as a member of the Audit & Compliance Committee. Following her departure, Supervisory Board member Wes Wheeler has been appointed by the Supervisory Board to the Audit & Compliance Committee. Evotec would like to thank Ms. Macapili Languille for her commitment and service.

 

The Supervisory Board has initiated the process to identify a successor and will focus on candidates with strong financial expertise to maintain the Supervisory Board's balanced competency profile and committee composition.

 

Strategic Evaluation

 

The strategic evaluation announced in connection with the Company's first quarter 2026 results on May 6, 2026, remains ongoing and continues alongside the implementation of the Horizon transformation program. Additional details regarding the review are available in the Company's Q1 2026 results announcement.

 

Horizon Transformation

 

Horizon remains Evotec's framework for the next phase of its transformation, focused on operational excellence, scientific leadership and commercial execution.

 

Since the launch of Horizon in March 2026, Evotec has continued to advance measures to streamline operations, increase agility and focus resources on areas with the clearest path to value. The updated full-year 2026 outlook does not change the strategic direction of Horizon or the timeline for its implementation.

 

Evotec remains on track to deliver approximately 20-30% of cost savings in 2026 as part of its previously announced objective of €75 million in annual run-rate savings by the end of 2027. Horizon measures implemented to date are delivering as planned, with first-half savings providing a foundation for achieving the expected 2026 savings contribution.

Financial Results

 

Claire Hinshelwood, Chief Financial Officer of Evotec, said:

 

“As previously announced, we confirm that our updated full-year outlook primarily reflects a revised view surrounding strategic partnership activities and milestone contributions in the second half of the year. The reduced contribution from these activities is expected to affect profitability disproportionately relative to revenues, reflecting their typically attractive economics and impact on overall capacity utilization. The current year continues to require disciplined execution and careful cash flow management. We remain focused on driving efficiency across the organization, increasing transparency around our business performance and strategic priorities and delivering on our Horizon objectives. Alongside ongoing cost and footprint optimization, we continue to invest in key strategic areas to support future growth opportunities while preserving financial flexibility.”

 

Group Financials

 

For the second quarter of 2026, Group revenues amounted to €143.5 million (€146.3 million CER) compared to €171.2 million in the same period in 2025, representing a 16.2% decrease. Adjusted Group EBITDA was -€20.8 million (-€18.6 million CER), reflecting a decrease of 320.3% versus -€5.0 million in the same prior-year period, mainly driven by lower revenues.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, Evotec generated Group revenues of €300.1 million (€313.2 million CER), a 19.2% decline versus €371.2 million in the first half of 2025. R&D expenses were managed in line with the Company’s focus on cost discipline, decreasing to €20.3 million (6.8% of total Group revenues) compared to €29.4 million in the prior year (7.9% of total Group revenues). Adjusted Group EBITDA decreased to -€42.7 million (-€37.4 million CER), down from -€1.9 million for H1 2025. The decrease was partially offset by lower cost of revenue as well as reduced R&D and SG&A expenses.

 

Evotec closed the second quarter of 2026 with a liquidity position of €465.6 million, reflecting a net cash position.
