Annual Report 2024/25 – Growing revenue and EBITDA
ANNOUNCEMENT NO. 292
11 September 2025
Annual Report 2024/25 (1 July 2024 – 30 June 2025)
Growing revenue and EBITDA
ChemoMetec’s revenue grew by 22% to DKK 495.6 million in 2024/25, and operating profit (EBITDA) increased by 39% to DKK 258.0 million. The positive revenue performance reflected an increase in sales of both instruments, consumables and services. The launch of the new XcytoMatic products is proceeding as planned.
“Along with our strong focus on creating renewed momentum in our existing business, we spent considerable resources during the financial year on launching our new high-tech XcytoMatic products. The launch of the XcytoMatic 40 is paving the way for ChemoMetec in the bioprocessing market, while the new XcytoMatic 30 and 50 instruments, both of which were developed on the same technology platform as the XcytoMatic 40, address our cell and gene therapy customers’ demand for automation.
Automation is an attractive new market for us, and we believe that ChemoMetec has a strong market position in the current surge in automation – and we are in a process of taking full advantage of this opportunity.
In the coming year, we will further accelerate the marketing of our new products, complete the development of another member of the XcytoMatic family, the XcytoMatic 50, continue working on the development of a new automation solution, the Sample Mana-gement System, and strengthen our software development while also maintaining focus on our existing business.
We are very confident that our new solutions will make a strong contribution to our growth in the coming years. However, it is important to bear in mind that the XcytoMatic instruments address bioprocessing customers and customers with automation projects – and that the validation and decision-making process in this segment is relatively long. This means that it will require a degree of patience to unlock the expected great potential of our new products,” says Martin Helbo Behrens, CEO.
