Interim Group Management Report

Fundamental Information about the Group

The Combined Management Report of the Annual Report 2024 contains detailed information about the structure, segments, goals and strategy of SCHOTT Pharma AG & Co. KGaA, Mainz, and its subsidiaries ("SCHOTT Pharma", "SCHOTT Pharma Group" or the "Group"). As there have been no material changes to these Group fundamentals in H1 2025, the statements made there remain valid.

The SCHOTT Pharma financial year covers the period from October 1 through September 30 of the respective calendar year. H1 2025 (previous year: H1 2024) therefore relates to the period from October 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025 (previous year: October 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024). Q2 2025 (previous year: Q2 2024) relates to the period from January 1, 2025 to March 31, 2025 (previous year: January 1, 2024 to March 31, 2024).

Business Review of the Group

Macroeconomic and industry environment

Most of our customers are market players in the pharma, biotech and life science industries, i.e. industries that are largely unaffected by overall economic developments due to non-cyclical demand and specific growth drivers. The impact of economic developments on our business is therefore limited in this respect.

According to analysts at the International Monetary Fund1 (IMF), the economic conditions in the regions relevant to us stabilized in 2024. While growth in Europe picked up significantly from a low level, the US and China recorded a slight decline compared with the previous year.

In the euro area, growth in the real gross domestic product (GDP) slightly more than doubled to 0.9% in 2024. However, economists expect real GDP to stagnate in 2025 with growth of just 0.8%. This downgrade compared to the last outlook in January 2025 takes into account the increased global uncertainties due to the recent escalating tariff disputes. Experts also expect China and the US to see a slowdown in growth in 2025 as a result of growing trade tensions. Nevertheless, GDP growth rates are still well above the level in the euro area. The IMF forecasts real GDP growth of 1.8% (2024: 2.8%) for the US in 2025 despite the tariff announcements. However, economists have lowered their estimates significantly compared to the last report from January 2025 (GDP growth of 2.7%). From their perspective, increased political uncertainty, trade disputes and lower demand are putting a strain on growth. China's real economic output is also expected to weaken in 2025 to just 4.0%. This means that China is likely to grow significantly more than Europe and the US, but this would still represent a decline of 1.0 percentage point compared with the previous year. The recent increase in trade policy uncertainty is also likely to have a dampening effect in China.

Economists expect global economic growth of 2.8% in 2025, which is below the figure of 3.3% in the previous year. Economists were still assuming stable growth in January, but optimism has deteriorated considerably due to new trade tensions between the US and its partners. The tariff measures introduced have increased global tariffs and are likely to affect global growth and economic activity. As a result, real GDP growth remains well below the historical average of 3.7% (2000–2019).

Our target market for injectable drugs is a good indicator of general trends in demand for primary packaging. However, primary packaging is only part of the price of drugs. Market growth is driven mainly by trends in the different classes of drugs (high-priced vs. cheaper). Yet, it is possible to predict some revenue growth trends for SCHOTT Pharma. However, actual revenue growth may differ from market dynamics.

1 "World Economic Outlook: A Critical Juncture amid Policy Shifts", International Monetary Fund, April 2025.

The market for injectable drugs grew by 9% in 2024, signaling a significant recovery compared to the previous year. There was a temporary decline of 7% in 2023 due to fewer COVID-19 vaccines. GLP-1 drugs made a major contribution to that recovery with growth of 78%. Experts from data analysis and consulting company GlobalData expect the momentum to continue in 2025 and are anticipating further growth of 16%. This would imply average annual growth of 13% per annum between 2020 and 2025. Complex molecules such as monoclonal antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) in particular experienced above-average growth along with GLP-1 drugs.

Most product categories for injectable drug delivery solutions continued to perform very well, driven by the unabated stronger demand for biologics. This underlines the long-term positive assessment of biologics and hence our High Value Solutions (HVS). In 2022, for example, more biologics than conventional chemically manufactured active ingredients were approved by the US FDA for the first time. This trend continued in 2024. In addition, the demand for delivery systems benefited from the development of new drugs in prefillable syringes. We meet this demand with our products from the Drug Delivery Systems segment.

Demand for pharmaceutical vials remained subdued in 2024. Until the beginning of 2024, customer demand was still suffering from reduced market stocks. There have been signs of a gradual recovery since then, with customers taking advantage of the now shorter delivery times due to available market capacities and holding lower safety stocks than before the pandemic.

Results of operations

SCHOTT Pharma generated revenue of EUR 482.2m in H1 2025. This is equivalent to year-on-year revenue growth of 3.4%. At constant currencies, revenue increased by 6.9%.

This revenue growth was driven by buoyant demand for HVS products. Revenue distribution by segment was as follows:

Change in %
(in EUR m) H1 2025 H1 2024 Reported Constant
currencies
Drug Containment Solutions (DCS) 271.9 262.8 3.4% 10.5%
Drug Delivery Systems (DDS) 210.6 203.9 3.3% 2.2%
Consolidation/Reconciliation –0.3 –0.2 17.4% 17.4%
SCHOTT Pharma revenue 482.2 466.5 3.4% 6.9%

Revenue in the DCS segment was up 3.4% year-on-year (at constant currencies: 10.5%). The strong demand for pharmaceutical vials and cartridges, both in ready-to-use configuration, and for special pharmaceutical vials made a positive contribution to our performance. Special pharmaceutical vials have special features such as improved inner surfaces (e.g. EVERIC® pure), tighter geometries as well as internal and external coatings (e.g. SCHOTT TopLyo®, SCHOTT Type I plus®). Alongside this, revenue from pharmaceutical vials in the previous year had been impacted by our customers temporarily destocking.

The DDS segment also posted a positive revenue performance. Compared to H1 2024, revenue increased by 3.3% (at constant currencies: 2.2%), driven mainly by the strong customer demand for prefillable glass syringes. However, this was offset by the reduced order volume of polymer syringes in the current financial year.

Revenue distribution by region was as follows:

(in EUR m) H1 2025 H1 2024 Change in %
EMEA 241.8 256.7 –5.8%
Asia and South Pacific 86.9 86.1 1.0%
North America 110.6 84.0 31.6%
South America 42.9 39.7 8.1%
SCHOTT Pharma revenue 482.2 466.5 3.4%

At EUR 129.9m, SCHOTT Pharma's EBITDA exceeded the previous year (EUR 117.0m), leading to an EBITDA margin of 26.9% (H1 2024: 25.1%). EBITDA continued to be impacted by exchange rate effects resulting from the US dollar and the Swiss franc fluctuating against the euro, and from the valuation of forward foreign exchange contracts. Translation effects related to the Argentine peso, the Mexican peso and the Brazilian real also contributed to exchange rate effects. Exchange rate effects recognized in profit or loss are reported under the "Consolidation/Reconciliation" item. At constant currencies, the EBITDA margin was 27.3%.

Change in %

Drug Containment Solutions (DCS) 61.5 54.5 12.9% 21.7%
Drug Delivery Systems (DDS) 71.7 78.1 –8.2% –9.6%
Consolidation/Reconciliation –3.3 –15.6 –78.9% –94.4%
SCHOTT Pharma EBITDA 129.9 117.0 11.1% 16.3%

The above developments led to the following EBITDA distribution by segment:

EBITDA in the DCS segment increased disproportionately in comparison with revenue growth compared to the same period in the previous year. This resulted in a constant-currency EBITDA margin of 22.8% (H1 2024, reported: 20.7%), driven mainly by the change to the product mix as a result of the increased demand for HVS products and the efficiency measures introduced in the previous year. These effects more than offset the ramp-up costs for capacity relocations, which continue to impact EBITDA.

As expected, the DDS segment posted a decline in EBITDA, achieving a constant-currency EBITDA margin of 33.9% (H1 2024, reported: 38.3%). The downward trend in revenue growth with polymer syringes and the resulting lower capacity utilization put a strain on EBITDA. Alongside this, the change in product mix compared with the previous year and ramp-up costs associated with capacity expansions for glass syringes had a negative impact on EBITDA. The positive performance of glass syringes was only able to partially offset the aforementioned effects.

The detailed breakdown for SCHOTT Pharma is as follows:

Cost of sales increased by 6.0%, resulting in a gross profit margin of 33.2% (H1 2024: 34.9%). This was mainly driven by the change in product mix and ramp-up costs for capacity expansions and capacity relocations in both segments as well as the lower capacity utilization for polymer syringes in the DDS segment.

The balance of other operating income and expenses was up EUR 10.7m to EUR 4.9m, driven mainly by lower exchange rate losses of EUR 10.5m year-on-year.

Compared to the previous year, the financial result was down EUR 2.0m. This was due to higher interest expenses as part of cash pool financing and from leases. The higher interest expenses from cash pool financing were due to the increased financing needs for capacity expansion projects of individual SCHOTT Pharma companies.

Income tax expenses rose EUR 5.9m year-on-year to EUR 18.3m. As profit before income tax increased by EUR 3.8m, the tax rate went up from 15.0% to 21.3%. The previous year's tax rate was affected, among other factors, by non-recurring tax income in the low single-digit million range, following a change in accounting estimates in the measurement of deferred taxes, and was exceptionally low.

Overall, the aforementioned development resulted in profit for the period decreasing to EUR 67.6m and earnings per share of EUR 0.45 compared with EUR 0.46 in the previous year.

Financial position

Equity ratio and net debt

Our equity ratio, i.e. the ratio of equity to total assets in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, is monitored on an ongoing basis and was 56.5% as of March 31, 2025 (September 30, 2024: 54.9%). The higher ratio is the combined result of a EUR 43.5m increase in total assets and a EUR 46.5m increase in equity. Please refer to the Net assets section below for more details on the increase in total assets. The increase in equity was due mainly to profit for the period of EUR 67.6m in H1 2025 and EUR 3.4m to actuarial gains in connection with changes in the interest rate relevant to the measurement of pension provisions. This was offset by EUR –24.1m in dividend distributions to our limited liability shareholders and EUR –0.3m in foreign currency translation effects.

SCHOTT Pharma's net debt is composed as follows:

(in EUR m) Mar. 31, 2025 Sept. 30, 2024
Cash and cash equivalents –26.1 –23.2
Other marketable securities –3.6 –3.2
Financial receivables – SCHOTT Group –141.1 –141.3
Financial liabilities – SCHOTT Group 212.7 200.5
Lease liabilities 84.0 85.8
Net debt 125.9 118.6

Net debt exceeded the previous year, mainly because of changes to the items "Financial receivables – SCHOTT Group" and "Financial liabilities – SCHOTT Group" that comprise the cash pool liabilities and receivables vis-à-vis SCHOTT Group. The key driver here was the increased financing needs for capacity expansion projects of individual SCHOTT Pharma companies.

Statement of Cash Flows

(in EUR m) H1 2025 H1 2024 Change
Cash flows from operating activities 72.4 91.4 –19.0
Cash flows from investing activities –50.3 –57.2 +6.9
Cash flows from financing activities –19.3 –38.7 +19.4
Net change in cash and cash equivalents 2.9 –4.5 +7.4
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period 23.2 24.4 –1.2
Change in cash and cash equivalents due to
foreign exchange rates
0.0 –0.9 +0.9
Cash and cash equivalents at end of the period 26.1 19.0 +7.1

SCHOTT Pharma posted a positive cash flow from operating activities in H1 2025. However, at EUR 72.4m, this was below the level in the previous year (EUR 91.4m). Operating income (EBIT) of EUR 92.3m (H1 2024: EUR 86.5m) made a positive contribution, together with non-cash effective depreciation, amortization and impairment of non-current assets included in EBIT of EUR 37.6m (H1 2024: EUR 30.5m). Please refer to the previous Results of Operations section for more details on the increase in EBIT. EBIT in the first half of the previous year was also impacted by the valuation of forward foreign exchange contracts. As the valuation of forward foreign exchange contracts was non-cash effective and therefore had to be adjusted for the purposes of the cash flow statement which had a positive effect of EUR 5.6m on cash flows from operating activities in the previous year. The increase in depreciation and amortization was due to the high capital expenditure on capacity expansion projects in recent financial years. This was offset by the change in working capital of EUR –33.1m (H1 2024: EUR –18.5m). The main drivers for this increase were higher inventories and contract assets compared with the previous year due to the increased volume of business. Assessed tax payments and advance payments for current taxes of EUR –20.9m (H1 2024: EUR –16.2m) also reduced cash flows from operating activities. In addition, the balance of interest received and paid in H1 2025 led to a cash outflow of EUR –3.7m (H1 2024: EUR –2.2m).

Cash flows from investing activities amounted to EUR –50.3m, a year-on-year decrease of EUR 6.9m. This can be attributed primarily to a EUR 5.7m reduction in investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets compared with the previous financial year. Capital expenditure in H1 2025 was evenly distributed across both segments. As in the financial year 2024, investments focused on capacity expansion projects, in particular the construction and expansion of manufacturing facilities.

Cash flows from financing activities were EUR –19.3m compared with EUR –38.7m in the first half of the previous year. Cash outflows of EUR –24.1m (H1 2024: EUR –22.6m) resulted primarily from dividend distributions to our limited liability shareholders. In addition, further cash outflows included the allocation to plan assets of EUR –5.7m (H1 2024: EUR –3.3m) and the repayment of lease liabilities of EUR –3.0m (H1 2024: EUR –1.4m). These were offset by cash inflows of EUR 13.4m (H1 2024: EUR –12.5m) due to changes in the items "Financial receivables – SCHOTT Group" and "Financial liabilities – SCHOTT Group". "Financial receivables – SCHOTT Group" and "Financial liabilities – SCHOTT Group" comprise the cash pool liabilities and receivables vis-à-vis SCHOTT Group. Since SCHOTT Pharma companies are permitted to draw down liquidity to finance their operating business as per the cash pool agreements, cash pool transactions can be characterized as financing transactions and are therefore generally classified as financing activities.

All in all, the increase in cash and cash equivalents was at EUR 2.9m – based on the position as of the reporting date of September 30, 2024. As changes due to foreign exchange rates in H1 2025 had no significant impact on cash and cash equivalents, this item increased to EUR 26.1m as of March 31, 2025.

Net assets

(in EUR m) Mar. 31, 2025 Sept. 30, 2024 Change
Non-current assets 873.8 853.7 +20.1
Current assets 611.9 588.6 +23.3
Total assets 1,485.7 1,442.3 +43.4
Equity 838.8 792.3 +46.5
Non-current liabilities 218.8 214.5 +4.3
Current liabilities 428.1 435.5 –7.4
Total equity and liabilities 1,485.7 1,442.3 +43.4

Non-current assets

Non-current assets were up EUR 20.1m to EUR 873.8m compared with September 30, 2024. This increase was mainly due to the EUR 9.7m growth in intangible assets and property, plant and equipment. Capital expenditure of EUR 52.2m was offset by depreciation and amortization of EUR 37.6m and disposals of non-current assets of EUR 0.6m. In addition, exchange rate effects resulted in a decrease of EUR 3.6m and inflationary adjustments at our Argentinian subsidiary led to a decrease of EUR 0.7m. Capital expenditure included non-cash additions of EUR 1.2m for right-of-use assets related to leases. The SCHOTT Pharma companies in Switzerland, Germany and Hungary accounted for the majority of the capital expenditure, with most investments relating to the expansion of manufacturing capacities in both segments. The positive performance of our joint ventures contributed to a EUR 7.9m increase in the valuation of investments accounted for using the equity method.

Current assets

Current assets were up EUR 23.3m compared with September 30, 2024. Inventories rose by EUR 14.5m in H1 2025 as a result of the increased volume of business and the ongoing capacity expansions. Furthermore, contract assets contributed EUR 18.4m to the increase in current assets as a result of the increased volume of business. This was offset by receivables from value-added tax of EUR 6.6m reported under "Other non-financial assets". Because of the high capital expenditure at the end of the financial year, there was a higher pre-tax surplus as of September 30, 2024. This was settled in the following months.

Equity

SCHOTT Pharma's equity amounted to EUR 838.8m as of the reporting date (September 30, 2024: EUR 792.3m) and the equity ratio increased from 54.9% to 56.5% as of the reporting date. For an explanation of the increase, please refer to the elaborations on the equity ratio in the Financial Position section.

Non-current liabilities

Non-current liabilities grew by EUR 4.3m to EUR 218.8m. The increase was mainly due to contract liabilities, which rose by EUR 9.7m to EUR 88.4m due to advance payments received from customers. This was offset by a EUR 6.1m decrease in pension provisions due to the allocation of plan assets in H1 2025 and the change in the interest rate relevant to the measurement.

Current liabilities

Compared with September 30, 2024, current liabilities were down EUR 7.4m to EUR 428.1m. The main driver of this decrease was the reduction in trade liabilities to third parties and SCHOTT Group of EUR 16.0m. Liabilities as of September 30 usually include higher liabilities relating to investments made in the fourth quarter, which are expected to be settled in the first half of the following financial year. In addition, income tax liabilities fell by EUR 4.3m as a result of tax payments. This was offset by an increase of EUR 12.2m in "Financial liabilities – SCHOTT Group". The key drivers here were the increased financing needs for capacity expansion projects of individual SCHOTT Pharma companies.

Report on Risks and Opportunities

Compared to the risks and opportunities disclosed in detail in the Annual Report 2024, there have been the following significant developments:

The current high level of uncertainty surrounding global tariff policy developments and the associated consequences for global trade represent an increased financial risk with regard to our global supply chains. We are addressing this risk by continually analyzing the situation and evaluating potential medium-term adjustments to our supply chains. Due to the high potential for losses and the high probability of occurrence, we currently classify this risk as risk class I.

Aside from this, the risk and opportunity position has not changed significantly since September 30, 2024. Taking all planned or implemented measures into account, there were no identifiable risks at the time of reporting that would individually or collectively jeopardize SCHOTT Pharma's existence as a going concern. Detailed information on SCHOTT Pharma's risk management system and the risk and opportunity position can be found in the Combined Management Report in the Annual Report 2024 beginning on page 39.

Forecast Report

We confirm our initial forecast made in the Annual Report 2024:

Key financial performance indicator Forecast
financial year 2025
Baseline
financial year 2024
Organic revenue growth High single-digit range EUR 957.1m
EBITDA margin Roughly at the previous year's level 26.9%

The confirmed forecast for the financial year 2025 includes expected direct effects arising from the global tariff policy developments known at the time of reporting.

Detailed information on the forecasts for the financial year 2025 can be found in the Combined Management Report in the Annual Report 2024, beginning on page 38.

Our forecast is based on various assumptions. It excludes portfolio measures but assumes that exchange rates will remain constant. Furthermore, it assumes that the geopolitical and global economic situation, global supply chains, inflation and energy supply will not deteriorate, and that there will be no further relevant pandemic-related restrictions.

SCHOTT Pharma's actual performance may deviate positively or negatively from our forecasts, either due to the risks and opportunities described in the Annual Report 2024 (section entitled "Report on Risks and Opportunities" in the Combined Management Report) and in the previous section, or because our expectations and assumptions fail to materialize.

IFRS 18: Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements was issued by the IASB on April 9, 2024. IFRS 18 affects all financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and includes new fundamental requirements for how companies present and disclose financial performance in the primary financial statements and the notes. IFRS 18 introduces two new defined subtotals and categories for classifying income and expenses, enhanced guidance for grouping (aggregation and disaggregation) of information, disclosures on management-defined performance measures in the notes and specific improvements to the Statement of Cash Flows by amending IAS 7 Cash Flow Statement. Application for the first time is currently planned for financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and initial application must be retrospective. SCHOTT Pharma does not make use of the existing option for early adoption. SCHOTT Pharma is currently assessing the impact that initial application of IFRS 18 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Regarding the other standards, SCHOTT Pharma also does not make use of any existing options for early adoption. These standards will be implemented in the Consolidated Financial Statements as of the date of mandatory adoption. According to current assessment, the other new and amended regulations have no material effect on SCHOTT Pharma's net assets, financial position and results of operations. Additional information is provided in Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report 2024.

3 Significant accounting policies and methods of consolidation

Unless otherwise specified, the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared on the basis of the accounting policies of the audited and published Consolidated Financial Statements of SCHOTT Pharma KGaA as of September 30, 2024 and should be read in conjunction with them.

In the management's opinion, the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (i.e. customary adjustments to be made on an ongoing basis) that are necessary to appropriately present the Group's net assets, financial position and results of operations. All significant intra-group balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Scope of consolidation

Along with SCHOTT Pharma KGaA, one additional consolidated company based in Germany (previous year: one) and 14 foreign consolidated companies (previous year: 14) were fully included in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Subsidiaries are included using the full consolidation method from the date on which SCHOTT Pharma KGaA obtains control. SCHOTT Pharma KGaA is deemed to have control if it is exposed or has rights to variable returns from its involvement in the Company and can affect those returns through its power over the Company. Three companies (previous year: three) were accounted for using the equity method in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

No acquisitions, divestments or other changes in the scope of consolidation took place in the first half of the financial year 2025. A statement of the SCHOTT Pharma Group's shareholdings in accordance with section 313(2) of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch, HGB) can be found in Note 3.1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report 2024.

Income tax expenses

For the purposes of calculating the tax expense, the rule set out in IAS 34.30c applies. Income taxes are recognized on the basis of the best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year.

The rules on global minimum taxation (Pillar Two) will apply to SCHOTT Pharma for the first time as of the financial year 2025. As a domestic constituent entity and partially owned parent entity (POPE), SCHOTT Pharma KGaA belongs to its ultimate parent entity (UPE) SCHOTT AG, which, due to its tax domicile in Germany, falls within the scope of this act. As UPE of SCHOTT Group, SCHOTT AG is obliged to submit the legally required minimum tax return, to calculate the tax and, if necessary, to pay any top-up taxes. This also includes those calculations that relate to SCHOTT Pharma KGaA as the POPE and the domestic and foreign constituent entities it holds. The minimum rate of tax within the meaning of the act is 15%.

Where top-up taxes arise for jurisdictions that concern SCHOTT Pharma KGaA or one of its constituent entities and that have not already been settled through the payment of qualified domestic top-up taxes, these are charged by SCHOTT AG to SCHOTT Pharma KGaA. These allocations as well as qualified domestic top-up taxes will be included in the financial statements of SCHOTT Pharma KGaA as income taxes in accordance with IAS 12 Income Taxes. For the resulting income tax expenses, please refer to Note 6.

Hyperinflation

The functional currency of SCHOTT Envases Argentina S.A., Buenos Aires, Argentina, which is included in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements – i.e. the Argentine peso – is considered to be hyperinflationary within the meaning of IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies. IAS 21.43 requires that the reporting packages of this company be restated to reflect the purchasing power as of the end of the reporting period before they are included in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of SCHOTT Pharma. This restatement was applied to all of the company's relevant assets and liabilities prior to translation. All amounts in the reporting packages were then translated at the closing rate on the reporting date for inclusion in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

A general price index that reflects the changes in purchasing power must be determined for the restatement. This index should be applied by all companies reporting in the currency of this economy. SCHOTT Pharma applies the indices proposed by the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas (FACPCE) in Resolution JG 539/18, which companies using the Argentine peso as their functional currency should apply to determine any restatement required due to hyperinflation. The index stood at 1.16 as of March 31, 2025 (September 30, 2024: 3.10; March 31, 2024: 2.42).

Net gains or losses from current changes in inflation rates reflect the effects of restatements of non-monetary assets, equity and items of the Statement of Income following changes in purchasing power. In H1 2025, SCHOTT Pharma realized a loss of creditors in the amount of EUR 1,604k (H1 2024: EUR 1,400k) due to the decline in purchasing power brought about by inflation; this loss was recognized in net other financial result.

Notes to the Consolidated Statement of Income and the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position

4 Revenue

Revenue mainly results from the sale of goods.

Revenue is presented by segment and region as part of segment reporting in Note 12.

Sales revenue can also be divided according to standard (core) and premium solutions (high-value solutions, HVS):

SCHOTT Pharma revenue 482,167 466,453

5 Other operating income and expenses

In the current half-year, SCHOTT Pharma received government grants of EUR 926k (H1 2024: EUR 5,864k), for which the conditions for recognition have been definitively met.

Other operating expenses in the previous year included costs of EUR 2,280k, incurred by SCHOTT Pharma Group companies in connection with the IPO. The costs incurred were reimbursed in full by SCHOTT Group companies based on a cost assumption agreement. The income generated from the reimbursement – EUR 2,280k – is included in other operating income. No further costs and corresponding claims for reimbursement were incurred in this respect in the first half of the current financial year.

Exchange rate losses of EUR 11,719k (H1 2024: EUR 31,755k) are netted against exchange rate gains of EUR 9,300k (H1 2024: EUR 18,845k). The balance in H1 2025 amounted to EUR –2,419k (H1 2024: EUR –12,910k) and is reported in other operating expenses.

6 Income tax expenses

In H1 2025, the tax rate of 21.3% exceeded the tax rate of 15.0% in the first half of the previous year. The previous year's tax rate was affected, among other things, by non-recurring tax income in the low single-digit million range, following a change in the measurement of deferred taxes, and was therefore exceptionally low.

The initial application of the rules on global minimum taxation (Pillar Two) resulted in a tax expense for qualified domestic top-up taxes for SCHOTT Pharma in H1 2025 amounting to EUR 419k.

1 Impairment losses are included in "Current depreciation and impairment".

In H1 2025, there were major additions related to the expansion of manufacturing locations in Switzerland, Germany and Hungary, also resulting in the reclassification of assets under construction.

8 Inventories

In H1 2025, impairment losses to write down inventories to their net realizable value in the amount of EUR 6,852k (H1 2024: EUR 5,147k) as well as reversals of impairment losses due to changes in estimates of future sales volumes amounting to EUR 1,039k (H1 2024: EUR 1,044k) were recognized.

9 Equity

As of March 31, 2025, the subscribed capital of SCHOTT Pharma KGaA amounts to EUR 150,615k, which is unchanged as against the previous year and is fully paid in as of the reporting date. Subscribed capital consists of 150,614,616 ordinary bearer shares with no-par value and a notional interest of EUR 1.00 each in the share capital. As no new ordinary bearer shares were issued in H1 2025, the number of outstanding shares has not changed compared with the previous year. Each share has one voting right at Annual General Meetings and is entitled to receive payments from resolved dividend distributions.

The Annual General Meeting on February 4, 2025 resolved to distribute a dividend of EUR 0.16 per no-par value share for the financial year 2024. The distribution was made on February 7, 2025. This corresponds to a dividend distribution of EUR 24,098k. The remaining net retained profit reported in the Annual Financial Statements of SCHOTT Pharma KGaA has been carried forward to new account.

Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss

Fair value measurement

The carrying amounts of financial instruments recognized at fair value are determined on the basis of input parameters that are observable on the market. For all current financial instruments in the categories "Financial assets measured at amortized cost (AC)" and "Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost (AC)", it is assumed that the carrying amount corresponds to the fair value.

All assets and liabilities for which the fair value is determined or presented in the financial statements are categorized in the fair value hierarchy described below, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

  • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted prices) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
  • Level 2: valuation methods for which the lowest level input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement can be directly or indirectly observed on the market
  • Level 3: valuation methods for which the lowest level input that is significant for the fair value measurement as a whole cannot be observed on the market

For financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), the fair value of derivatives is measured on a model basis using significant observable input parameters (spot prices and yield curves), while the fair value of securities is measured using quoted prices on active markets. Accordingly, derivatives are assigned to Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Securities are assigned to Level 1.

There were no reclassifications between the levels of the fair value hierarchy in the period under review.

11 Other financial obligations

Purchase commitments for non-current assets amount to EUR 109,663k (September 30, 2024: EUR 104,353k).

12 Segment reporting

In accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments, segment reporting is presented on the basis of the internal management and the reporting system for the Management Board of SCHOTT Pharma. The Management Board is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined in IFRS 8 Operating Segments and monitors the operating results of its operating segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. The definition of the operating segments as well as the indicators described are in line with internal management and reporting; the key performance indicators are revenue and EBITDA. The accounting and financial reporting principles applied are generally the same as those described in Note 3.5 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report 2024.

SCHOTT Pharma comprises the two operating segments Drug Containment Solutions (DCS) and Drug Delivery Systems (DDS). Additional information on the operating segments can be found in Note 37 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and in the "Segments" section in the Combined Management Report in the Annual Report 2024.

The business relationships between the operating segments are generally based on prices that are also agreed upon with third parties. Revenue and further transactions between operating segments are eliminated upon consolidation and reported in the Consolidation/Reconciliation column. The Consolidation/Reconciliation column also includes the necessary reconciliation and reclassification items, plus exchange rate effects recognized in profit or loss. In addition, all assets and liabilities of SCHOTT Pharma that do not meet the definition of segment assets and segment liabilities are reported in the Consolidation/Reconciliation column. Capital expenditure shown in the Consolidation/Reconciliation column refers to investments made by Group headquarters.

Review report

To SCHOTT Pharma AG & Co. KGaA

We have reviewed the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of the SCHOTT Pharma AG & Co. KGaA, Mainz – comprising the Consolidated Statement of Income, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements – together with the Interim Group Management Report of the SCHOTT Pharma AG & Co. KGaA, Mainz, for the period from October 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025 that are part of the semi annual financial report according to § 115 WpHG ["Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": "German Securities Trading Act"]. The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU, and of the interim group management report in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports, is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.

We performed our review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with a certain level of assurance, that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU, and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot issue an auditor's report.

Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU, or that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports.
