Genus increases profit forecast for FY26 to around £98m and shares rise

Genus forecasts an adjusted pre-tax profit of around £98m for fiscal 2026, beating consensus estimates. The positive revision reflects a stronger-than-expected second half, with robust growth in the pig genetics business (PIC) in Asia and Latin America and double-digit profit growth at the cattle genetics division (ABS) thanks to the Value Acceleration Programme. The company also reports very strong cash conversion, material free cash flow growth and a strengthened balance sheet heading into FY27. The shares rose sharply intraday and closed well above the prior level. » More on de.investing.com
Genus posts record profit despite revenue stagnation and announces China joint venture

Genus reports adjusted profit growth of 57% for H1 2026 on flat revenue of £335.6m; adjusted pre-tax profit rose to £55.7m and adjusted earnings per share to 60.8p. Drivers were high-margin licence revenues, strong PIC performance in Asia and a £5.6m milestone payment from a joint venture with Beijing Capital Agribusiness, which expects further payments of around £100m for Q4 FY2026. Regulatory progress for the PRRS‑resistant PRP technology and an increase of the interim dividend to 11.2p underline the strategy, while the shares fell sharply amid doubts about the sustainability of the margins. » More on de.investing.com
Genus exceeds expectations and raises 2026 outlook

Genus reported a strong first half of 2026 with an adjusted pre-tax profit of around £50.0m (excluding a milestone payment) or about £55.6m including the milestone. Management now expects a full-year adjusted pre-tax profit to be moderately above the top end of current market expectations (£82.7–85.0m). In December Genus received SASAC approval for the China pig genetics joint venture, triggering a $7.5m (approximately £5.6m) milestone payment; formation and payment are expected in Q3. The full half-year results for the period to 31 December 2025 will be published on 26 February 2026. » More on de.investing.com
