"We're off to a good start in 2025, with growth in both revenue and earnings.
Adjusted EBITDA rose 59% year-over-year, reflecting the operational improvements
we've made across the business. Our Human Health Ingredients segment continues
to be the key growth engine, experiencing demand growth across multiple
regions.", said Matts Johansen, CEO of Aker BioMarine.
Human Health Ingredients delivered a strong quarter, with revenues up 16%
year-over-year, driven by good demand growth in China, Europe, and South
America. Adjusted EBITDA increased 36% year-over-year to USD 11.3 million,
supported by higher volume, improved pricing and lower unit costs. The segment
has now achieved nine consecutive quarters of revenue growth, reflecting the
consistency built through recent operational improvements.
Consumer Health Products returned to year-over-year growth, with revenues up 4%
compared to Q1 last year, although lower sequentially due to normal seasonal
trends. Adjusted EBITDA remained positive, despite slightly lower gross margins
compared to last year, reflecting ongoing cost discipline. The broader market
for FMCG supplements also grew moderately in Q1 at around 3%.
Outlook
The Human Health Ingredients segment sees continued growth, supported by good
underlying demand in multiple markets. In Consumer Health Products, the business
has returned to modest growth, with revenues following market growth. The
Emerging Business segment remains on track toward cash break-even, with active
engagement in potential transactions. At the corporate level, the company has
established a new, leaner cost base and is executing on initiatives to further
improve financial and operational efficiency.
AKBM is adapting to market trends through productivity and cost measures while
actively assessing the potential impact of increased macroeconomic uncertainty
and new tariffs.
