Overall, the Group recorded sales growth of and, at the end of June , was . million above the previous year's level of . million at . million.
The individual segments show the following developments:
External sales in the Medical segment were above the previous year's level in the first half of the year at . million (. million). The pharmaceutical radioisotope business remains the most important source of revenue. The development of sales of generators and the licensing business should be mentioned in particular. In addition to regular and evenly balanced sales, the picture for license payments is different. These revenues, which are planned for a calendar year, are distributed asymmetrically over the reporting period, meaning that an extrapolation based on sales achieved to date is not possible.
The delays caused by unforeseeable events such as the cyberattack in February and the simultaneous short-term halt in deliveries of our gallium generators were largely recovered. Individual project-related sales continue to be delayed.
The Isotope Products segment generated external revenue of . million, down . million or approximately compared to the first half of . Compared with the same period last year, there were shifts in seasonality and between product groups toward lower-margin products. The Isotope Products segment also experienced project-related delays due to the cyberattack.
For the transition from EBIT to adjusted EBIT, please refer to the information in the notes to the interim consolidated financial statements in the section "Key performance indicator defined by management".
Adjusted EBIT for the Group rose by around . million to . million compared with the first half of , representing growth of .
In the Medical segment, adjusted EBIT amounted to . million, up . million on the adjusted EBIT for the same period of the previous year. The gross margin () was significantly higher in the first half of the year than in the previous year (). This increase was primarily due to the high-margin sales described above.
In the Isotope Products segment, adjusted EBIT declined by around . million to . million. This was primarily due to the . million decline in gross profit to . million. The gross margin fell from in the previous year to in the first half of . The decline was mainly due to the effects described above in connection with seasonality and the shift between product groups.
The Other segment, consisting of the holding company, closed the first half of the year with adjusted EBIT of –. million (previous year: –. million). One reason for the improvement was that the scope of the "Laundry" project in Berlin-Buch was adjusted in the first half of . All costs previously recognized under construction in progress that could no longer be allocated to the newly defined scope were derecognized in with an effect on income (–. million).
The Group's half-year results were up by around . million () on the previous year's figures, reaching . million or . per share.
Consolidated net income in the first half of was impacted by currency effects of –. million, whereas in the same period of the previous year it was positively influenced by currency effects of . million. In addition, costs were incurred in connection with the cyberattack to restore the IT infrastructure. These expenses, which are recognized in the income statement, temporarily reduce earnings by around . million.
In the Medical segment, net income amounted to . million (previous year: . million). Currency effects of –. million impacted earnings; in the previous year, currency effects amounted to . million in income. Net interest expense improved by . million year-on-year to –. million (previous year: –. million).
In the Isotope Products segment, net income fell by around . million compared with the first half of to . million. Currency effects (–. million) had a negative impact of . million on earnings compared with the previous year. Losses in accordance with IAS (hyperinflation) amounted to . million in the reporting period (previous year: . million).
The Other segment closed the first half of the year with earnings (before minority interests) of –. million (previous year: –. million). The improvement in earnings is mainly due to the fact that in the same period of the previous year, the segment still included the clinical assets consisting of Pentixapharm AG and Myelo Therapeutics GmbH in addition to the holding company. In addition, costs of . million for preparing the spin-off of the clinical assets had a negative impact on the segment's earnings in the previous year.
The balance sheet total at the end of June decreased slightly by . million compared to the financial statements and now amounts to million (previous year: million).
On the assets side, this reduction is primarily due to the decrease in shares in associated companies by . million. This is resulting from the invoicing of . million to the Chinese joint venture Qi Kang Medical, Ltd. in connection with the license agreement for the cyclotron technology used by Eckert & Ziegler for the production of Ac-. In accordance with IAS , the revenues were eliminated on a pro rata basis to the extent that they correspond to the share in the joint venture and were offset against the shares in associated companies or joint ventures.
Trade receivables rose by . million (+), inventories by . million (+) and income tax receivables by . million (+). In contrast, cash and cash equivalents decreased by . million.
On the liabilities side, the decline was mainly due to the scheduled repayment of long-term loan liabilities in the amount of . million and the repayment of short-term and long-term lease liabilities (. million).
As of June , , . million was reported as long-term loan liabilities and . million as short-term loan liabilities.
In addition, other current liabilities decreased by . million, mainly due to the utilization of short-term liabilities, while income tax liabilities increased by . million.
Equity rose by . million to million as of June , . The increase is mainly attributable to the net income for the period of . million, which was, however, almost completely offset by dividend payments of . million and negative currency effects in other comprehensive income of . million for the first half of (primarily from foreign currency translation differences between EUR and USD and EUR and ARS). The equity ratio is .
Operating cash flow amounted to . million, up around . million on the same period of the previous year. This is primarily attributable to the aforementioned payment received from the Chinese joint venture Qi Kang Medical, Ltd. in the amount of . million after deduction of Chinese withholding tax of . million.
The cash outflow from investing activities corresponds to investments in intangible assets and property, plant, and equipment (. million). The focus here was on expanding the sites in Dresden-Rossendorf, São Paulo, Brazil, and Wilmington, USA. There were no company acquisitions or disposals in the reporting period. In the previous year, investments in intangible assets and property, plant, and equipment (. million) and the sale of the remaining shares in BEBIG Medical GmbH ( stake for . million) resulted in a cash inflow of . million.
The cash outflow from financing activities (. million) is mainly attributable to the dividend payment of . million and the repayment of loan liabilities (. million). In the first half of the year, cash and cash equivalents of . million (previous year: . million) were used to repay lease liabilities.
Overall, cash and cash equivalents as of June , decreased by . million compared to the end of to . million (December , : . million).
The forecast for the fiscal year published on March , remains unchanged. The Executive Board continues to expect sales of around million and adjusted EBIT of around million.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Eckert & Ziegler SE as of June , , were prepared in accordance with IAS , the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) applicable to interim reporting. All standards of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), London, applicable in the EU on the reporting date, as well as the valid interpretations of the International Financial Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and the Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC), have been taken into account.

The actual values may differ from the estimates. Significant assumptions and estimates are made for the useful life, the recoverable amounts of fixed assets, the collectability of receivables, and the recognition and measurement of provisions. Due to rounding, individual figures may not add up exactly to the stated total.
This interim report contains all the information and adjustments necessary to provide a true and fair view of the net assets, financial position, and results of operations of Eckert & Ziegler SE as of the date of the interim report. The results for the current fiscal year to date do not necessarily allow conclusions to be drawn about the development of future results.

In accordance with IAS , transactions with persons or companies that control Eckert & Ziegler SE or are controlled by it must be disclosed. Transactions between the company and its subsidiaries that are related parties were eliminated during consolidation and are therefore not disclosed. Details of transactions between the Group and other related parties are provided below.
In addition to the Executive Board and members of the Supervisory Board, the following are considered other significant related parties and companies for the current fiscal year:
In the first half of , the following significant transactions were carried out with related parties, all of which were conducted at arm's length:
Eckert & Ziegler SE has concluded a consulting agreement with Eckert Wagniskapital und Frühphasenfinanzierung GmbH. The company wishes the consultant to make his specific knowledge and special experience available to it, in particular in the person of Dr. Eckert, and to provide consulting services to it that go beyond Dr. Eckert's activities as a member of the Supervisory Board. The consulting agreement has been in effect since July , . Eckert & Ziegler SE spent thousand for the first six months of the year (of which thousand was for actual consulting and thousand was for reimbursement of expenses) (previous year: thousand).
ELSA Beteiligungen GmbH has leased a production and administration building in Berlin-Buch to Eckert & Ziegler SE. During the first half of the year, Eckert & Ziegler SE recognized rent of thousand (previous year: thousand) as an expense. As of June , , lease liabilities to ELSA Beteiligungen GmbH in the amount of , thousand (December , : , thousand) will be recognized in the balance sheet due to the application of lease accounting in accordance with IFRS .
Ms. Jutta Ludwig was a member of the Executive Board of Eckert & Ziegler SE until December , . As a former member of the Executive Board of the parent company of Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma GmbH, Ms. Jutta Ludwig has extensive and unique operational experience in the business areas of Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma GmbH. The company therefore wishes Ms. Ludwig to make her specific knowledge and special experience available to it from January , , and to provide her with consulting services that go beyond her institutional activities as a member of the Supervisory Board. The focus will be in particular on expanding business activities in China. However, no expenses were recognized until June , .
The Eckert & Ziegler Group's balances with related parties and companies in respect of receivables and liabilities as of June , , are as follows:
| € thousand | 6/30/2025 | 12/31/2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Receivables from related parties (without Pentixapharm) | 0 | 0 |
| Liabilities to related parties (without Pentixapharm) | 7,630 | 8,045 |
The Pentixapharm Group considers Dr. Eckert to be a related party and "ultimate controlling party" because he indirectly holds a majority presence at the general meetings of Pentixapharm Holding AG through Eckert Wagniskapital und Frühphasenfinanzierung GmbH. Transactions with Pentixapharm Holding AG and its subsidiaries are therefore also included in this report.
In the first half of , Pentixapharm AG received services from Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma Inc. ( thousand). Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma, Inc. provides Pentixapharm AG with the necessary office space, personnel, and accounting services for its clinical trials with the aim of gaining market access in the US. It also purchased services and goods from Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma GmbH ( thousand) and Eckert & Ziegler Eurotope GmbH ( thousand). Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma GmbH handles hazardous goods transport and customs formalities for Pentixapharm AG, takes the necessary radiation protection measures, and provides other services under a CDMO (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization) agreement. In addition, Pentixapharm AG uses a laboratory room at Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma GmbH.
In addition, Pentixapharm AG invoiced Eckert & Ziegler Eurotope GmbH for consulting and other services totaling thousand in connection with various projects. Furthermore, thousand was passed on to Eckert & Ziegler Radiopharma GmbH.
Under a subscription agreement dated August , , a convertible bond in the amount of . million was issued between Eckert & Ziegler SE as the subscriber and Pentixapharm Holding AG as the issuer. The bonds will only be delivered to Eckert & Ziegler SE once Pentixapharm Holding AG has declared the payment amounts due to Eckert & Ziegler SE and payment has been made. No bonds had been delivered to Eckert & Ziegler SE at the time of preparing this report. Eckert & Ziegler SE expects Pentixapharm Holding AG to exercise its right of redemption in the near future. This could result in a balance sheet risk for the company.
The Eckert & Ziegler Group's balances with the Pentixapharm Group in respect of receivables, loan receivables and liabilities as of June , are as follows:
| € thousand | 6/30/2025 | 12/31/2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Receivables from the Pentixapharm Group | 105 | 26 |
| Loan receivables from the Pentixapharm Group | 0 | 0 |
| Liabilities to the Pentixapharm Group | 7 | 0 |
Financial assets measured at fair value as of June , , mainly comprise the following amounts:
Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) under Level as of June , , mainly comprise the following amounts:
• The convertible bond issued under the subscription agreement dated August , between Eckert & Ziegler SE as subscriber and Pentixapharm Holding AG as issuer affects the financial statements of Eckert & Ziegler SE. The () bonds will only be delivered to Eckert & Ziegler SE once Pentixapharm Holding AG has declared the payment amounts due to Eckert & Ziegler SE and payment has been made. No bonds were delivered to Eckert & Ziegler SE by June , . A pending transaction exists; accordingly, the bond itself is not recognized. However, the subscription agreement already gives rise to rights and obligations for the parties, which are recognized in the balance sheet as a derivative. This resulted in a liability of thousand as of June , (December , : thousand) (measurement hierarchy level ).
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term receivables, trade payables, other short-term trade payables, and other receivables is approximately equal to their carrying amount. This is primarily due to the short term nature of such instruments.
The Annual General Meeting of Eckert & Ziegler SE on June , , resolved to increase the share capital from company funds by ,, to ,,. The capital increase was entered in the commercial register on July , , and thus became effective. This increased the company's share capital from ,, to ,,. Following the implementation of this capital measure by the banks, the company's shareholders are entitled to new shares in a ratio of : based on their previous shareholdings, i.e., each old share entitles the holder to two additional free shares. This triples the number of tradable shares with the aim of increasing the liquidity of Eckert & Ziegler shares. The respective percentage share of a shareholder in the capital of Eckert & Ziegler SE remains unchanged.
After the balance sheet date, there were no further events that had a significant impact on the Group's net assets, financial position or results of operations.
This interim report contains statements about future developments that may constitute forward-looking statements. These statements – like any business activity in a global environment – are always subject to uncertainty. These statements are based on the convictions and assumptions of the Executive Board of the Eckert & Ziegler Group, which are based on information currently available. If factors such as macroeconomic or regional developments, changes in exchange rates and interest rates, changes in material costs or new disruptions from the war in Ukraine or other uncertainties arise, or if the assumptions underlying the statements prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ from those forecast. Eckert & Ziegler SE assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements or information on an ongoing basis. They are based on the circumstances on the date of their publication.
This document contains supplementary financial figures that are or may be alternative performance measures. These supplementary financial figures should not be used in isolation or as an alternative to the financial figures presented in the consolidated financial statements and determined in accordance with applicable accounting standards when assessing the net assets, financial position, and results of operations of Eckert & Ziegler. Due to rounding, it is possible that individual figures in this document may not add up exactly to the stated total and that percentages shown may not accurately reflect the absolute values to which they refer.
To the best of our knowledge, and in accordance with the applicable accounting principles for interim reporting, the consolidated interim financial statements give a true and fair view of the net assets, financial position, and results of operations of the Group, and the interim management report includes a description of the business activities and the results of operations, as well as the position of the Group, in such a way that it gives a true and fair view and that the significant opportunities and risks associated with the Group's anticipated development in the remaining fiscal year are described.

To Eckert & Ziegler SE, Berlin
We have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements – comprising the consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated income statement, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated cash flow statement, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, and selected notes – and the interim group management report of Eckert & Ziegler SE, Berlin, for the period from January , to June , , which are part of the halfyear financial report pursuant to § WpHG ("Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": German Securities Trading Act). The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards (hereinafter referred to as "IFRS Accounting Standards") for interim reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and applicable in the EU, and of the consolidated interim management report in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act (WpHG) applicable to consolidated interim management reports is the responsibility of the Company's Executive Board. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the half-year consolidated financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.
We performed our review of the half-year consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with the 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 half-year consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards for the Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions 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 half-year consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards for the 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.
