▪ Net sales were up 12% from Q2-24. Net sales in the Human segment is up 15% from Q2-24 due to higher volume of Superba and a broader product portfolio. The Consumer health segment is up 9% from Q2-24. Net sales in the emerging business segment is down 7% from Q2-24.

Cost of goods sold

▪ Cost of goods sold in line with last year despite higher revenues. Higher margins on Superba in HHI. Stable margins in the Consumer Health segment. Lower eliminations of internal profit in inventory.

SG&A

* 2024 figures restated as a result of the change in cost allocation and inventory estimates, see note 1 for details. Unaudited

Updated cost allocation when converting inventories for the HHI segment

  • Following the sale of the Feed Ingredients segment in 2024, the Human Health Ingredients segment has restructured and changed its operating model
  • Management has revised cost allocation policies, moving certain costs (salaries, warehouse rent, insurance, etc.) from inventory conversion to SG&A expenses.
  • The effect is a decrease in COGS compensated by an increase in SG&A
  • 2024 figures have been restated to reflect the same cost allocation

Rationale Financial impact – HHI segment

1) Some SG&A has been identified as corporate costs and allocated to that segment. Quarterly changes in 2024 also includes other inventory changes, and sum of quarters is higher than reallocation due to low production in 2023.

Non-operational segment: Elim / other (Corporate cost) SG&A1

  • SG&A impacted by cost from ongoing restructuring programs, including severance packages, and Feed Ingredients IT migration
    • Parts of increase in SG&A are offset by TSA income of USD 0.6m in the quarter
    • Q2-24 included a YTD catch-up of cost allocated to Feed
  • EBITDA includes positive contribution of USD 1.3 million from internal profit elimination

including non-recurring costs (USDm)

Allocation of corporate costs:

  • Each segment reports SG&A costs directly attributable to their operations and FTE resources
  • All overhead and corporate cost (finance, legal, ESG, HR, communication and IT compliance) is booked under "Other/elim"

1) Q2-Q3 2024 figures are pro forma excluding Feed Ingredients, unaudited. Feed Ingredients share of group corporate costs estimated to approx. USD 5.4m per year, which have been adjusted out of SG&A. Lang excluded.
