Gerresheimer

Gerresheimer reported Q1 revenue of €524m and adjusted EBITDA of €66m, with a margin of 12.6%. The free cash flow shortfall narrowed substantially to €32m after previously -€141m. Management expects earnings to improve in the second half and plans to sell Centor and Primary Packaging Plastics to strengthen the balance sheet.

Gerresheimer has cleared balance-sheet issues tied to the delayed report and plans to sell Centor and Primary Packaging Plastics, which should significantly reduce debt. Operationally the first quarter remained weak: revenue around €524 million, adjusted EBITDA fell from €81 million to €66 million. Free cash flow improved markedly to -€32 million versus -€141 million a year earlier. Management expects a pickup in business momentum in the second half, which could further ease the metrics. » More on finanzen.net

Gerresheimer reports adjusted EBITDA of €66m for Q1 2026 (-19%) and a margin of 12.6% (previous year 15.7%), on slightly higher revenue of €524m. Free cash flow improved significantly to -€32m from -€141m, driven by active inventory reduction and throttled production volumes, which weigh on profitability in the short term. The Containment & Delivery Systems segment performed positively with a higher margin due to strong demand and new U.S. production ramp‑ups. The quarterly release was delayed due to internal reviews of revenue recognition, the company still lacks a permanent CEO, and management is aiming for a turnaround in the second half. » More on de.investing.com
