Key Points
- Bavarian Nordic AS (BVNKF) reported a 33% improvement in revenues for the first half of 2025, resulting in an EBITDA margin of 32%.
- The company sold 5 million doses of vaccines, contributing to a 24% growth in the Travel Health sector, driven by rabies and TBE vaccines.
- Vinconia has been approved and launched in the US, Germany, and France, with plans to meet the year's guidance.
- Public preparedness contracts secured NOK3.1 billion, exceeding the base business expectations.
- The sale of a priority review voucher resulted in a net income of DKK810 million, potentially improving the year-end EBITDA margin to 42%.
- The company anticipates a lower EBITDA margin in the second half of the year, between 26% and 30%, due to increased sales and marketing costs.
- There is uncertainty in maintaining the high gross margin achieved in the first half, as it depends on continued manufacturing success.
- The Travel Health business saw a 16% decline in TBE vaccine sales in Q2, attributed to inventory buildup in Q1.
