BRAIN Biotech AG Financial Results 9M 2025 / 26 | Enzymes, BioIncubator & Outlook
BRAIN Biotech AG 9M 2025/26: Key Takeaways In this Financial Results presentation on seat11a, Michael Schneiders, CFO of BRAIN Biotech AG, presents the company’s 9M FY 2025/26 Financial Results and discusses the performance of BRAINBiocatalysts and BRAINBioIncubator, profitability, cash flow, financing, the upcoming CEO transition and the updated full-year outlook. 9M FY 2025/26 Revenue and Segment Performance BRAIN Biotech generated revenue of €34.6 million during the first nine months of FY 2025/26, representing a decline of 10.5% year-on-year. The development primarily reflects weaker performance in BRAINBiocatalysts, where revenue declined 13.3% to €30.8 million. BRAINBioIncubator developed in the opposite direction, increasing revenue 21% to €3.9 million as the company continued to realise value from its innovation portfolio. BRAINBiocatalysts and Enzyme Business Development During Q3, BRAINBiocatalysts revenue was sequentially stable compared with Q2 but remained below the prior-year period. Management attributes the weaker development to a high comparison base, subdued demand for baking enzymes and initial operational challenges at the new Netherlands production facility. The enzyme-related contract research business, however, remained solid and is expected to continue performing well through the remainder of the financial year. Adjusted EBITDA and BRAINBioIncubator Milestones Adjusted Group EBITDA amounted to minus €0.7 million for the nine-month period. Management continues to focus on cost control, including lower headcount, while BRAINBioIncubator milestone income is increasingly contributing to Group performance. The BioIncubator recorded a €1 million Pharvaris-related milestone during the first nine months, with another €1 million expected to be recognised in Q4. The FDA acceptance of the NDA for deucrictibant represents another important development within the portfolio. Financing, Cash Flow and Netherlands Production Investment The Group has also strengthened its financing position. BRAIN secured a €9 million revolving credit line, while an additional €11.51 million Royalty Pharma milestone was received in Q4. Operating cash flow improved substantially year-on-year to minus €3.6 million, while investment in the new Netherlands production site was largely completed during Q3. CEO Transition to Dr. Sven K. Weber BRAIN is simultaneously preparing for a management transition. Dr. Sven K. Weber will become CEO on 1 October 2026, succeeding Adriaan Moelker. Weber brings significant experience in enzymes and will take over as BRAIN continues to pursue its long-term strategy of profitable specialty-enzyme growth and its ambition to become one of the world’s top-ten global enzyme companies. Updated FY 2025/26 Guidance Following the weaker development of BRAINBiocatalysts, management adjusted its FY 2025/26 segment guidance. Biocatalysts revenue is now expected to be below the previous financial year’s level and the adjusted EBITDA margin below the previously anticipated level of around 10%. Conversely, BRAINBioIncubator guidance was raised, with revenue now expected at approximately €6 million and adjusted EBITDA above €1 million. Adjusted Group EBITDA is still expected to be around break-even for the full year. ▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.
