Coloplast initiated a preventative and voluntary product return in Q3 of all Biatain® Adhesive foam dressings in China, following a local inspection where three product lots did not meet a technical requirement. Product safety was not compromised, and the dressings continue to meet standards in other markets. The decision was made in response to the failed local test, and Coloplast is in dialogue with the authorities to resolve the matter. Mitigating actions are underway to replace the returned products with alternative solutions.

Q4 organic growth was 2% and reported revenue in DKK decreased by 2% to DKK 667 million.
Growth in Q4 was mainly driven by good momentum in the US Men's Health business, driven by the Titan penile implants. The Women's Health business also contributed to growth.

EBIT after special items was DKK 7,201 million, a DKK 119 million (2%) decrease from last year. The EBIT margin after special items was 26% compared to 27% last year.
The Q4 EBIT after special items was DKK 1,724 million, a DKK 183 million (10%) decrease from last year, with an EBIT margin of 25%.
Financial items were a net expense of DKK 1,044 million against a net expense of DKK 925 million last year. The increase in net expenses was mostly due to a non-cash effect from currency exchange rate adjustments.
The net expense includes interest expenses of DKK 722 million, compared to DKK 762 million last year, mostly related to the financing of the Atos Medical acquisition.
Exchange rate adjustments had a negative impact on the financial expenses, with DKK 231 million from losses on balance sheet items, mostly related to the USD, and realised loss on cash flow hedges with an impact of DKK 49 million, primarily driven by the USD and GBP.
The Q4 financial items were a net expense of DKK 169 million compared to a net expense of DKK 304 million in the same period last year, and mostly related to interest expenses.
The ordinary tax expense in the financial year 2024/25 was DKK 1,375 million, compared to DKK 1,343 million last year, with an ordinary tax rate of 22%, on par with last year. The total tax expense for the financial year 2024/25 was DKK 2,521 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 41%. The total tax expense was impacted by an extraordinary expense of DKK 1,146 million related to the transfer of Kerecis' Intellectual Property (IP) from Iceland to Denmark which is consistent with Coloplast's operating model.
As a result of the Kerecis IP transfer, an extraordinary tax payment in Iceland impacting cash flows is expected in FY 2026/27 at the earliest. The payment will be fully offset by reduced tax payments in Denmark starting in full year 2024/25.
Net profit before special items was DKK 4,002 million, a DKK 1,023 million decrease from DKK 5,025 million last year. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) before special items were DKK 17.76, or a 21% decrease from last year.
Net profit, adjusted for the extraordinary tax impact from the Kerecis IP transfer (DKK 1,146 million) and special items (DKK 469 million, before tax), was DKK 5,148 million, a DKK 123 million (2%) increase from last year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) before special items were DKK 22.84, a 2% increase from last year.
Net profit after special items was DKK 3,636 million and diluted EPS after special items were DKK 16.13.
The Q4 net profit before special items amounted to DKK 1,053 million, against DKK 1,232 million last year. The diluted Q4 earnings per share (EPS) before special items were DKK 4.67.

The Q4 net profit after special items was DKK 875 million and diluted earnings per share (EPS) after special items were DKK 3.88.

Cash flows from operating activities amounted to an inflow of DKK 6,645 million, against an inflow of DKK 2,766 million last year. The positive development in cash flows from operating activities was mostly driven by lower income tax paid as 2023/24 included DKK 2.5 billion extraordinary impact from the transfer of Atos Medical's Intellectual Property. Changes in working capital and adjustment of non-cash operating items also had a positive impact on the cash flows from operating activities.
Net investments amounted to DKK 1,251 million in the financial year 2024/25 or around 4% of revenue, compared with DKK 1,336 million last year. The net investments included positive impact from the divestment of the Skin Care business of DKK 192 million.
Capital expenditures amounted to DKK 1,427 million for the financial year 2024/25, or 5% of revenue, on par with last year, and includes around DKK 450 million related to the new manufacturing site in Portugal, expected to be operational in 2025/26.
As a result, the free cash flow was an inflow of DKK 5,394 million, compared to an inflow of DKK 1,430 million last year due to the extraordinary tax payment last year related to the Atos Medical IP transfer. The adjusted free cash flow1) in the financial year 2024/25 was a DKK 1.3 billion increase from the same period last year.
The adjusted free cash flow-to-sales ratio was 19% compared to 15% last year1)

At 30 September 2025, total assets amounted to DKK 48,367 million, an increase of DKK 294 million compared to 30 September 2024.
Working capital was 26% of revenue, compared to 25% at 30 September 2024. The development in working capital was impacted by trade payables which decreased by DKK 195 million to DKK 1,324 million. Inventories increased by DKK 247 million to DKK 3,919 million, due to lower than expected sales, while trade receivables decreased by DKK 17 million to DKK 4,658 million.
Working capital-to-sales ratio expected to improve to around 24% in the Impact4 strategic period.
Equity decreased by DKK 1.8 billion to DKK 16,122 million compared to 30 September 2024. Total comprehensive income for the period of DKK 3,081 million, effect of sale of treasury shares of DKK 27 million and share-based remuneration of DKK 79 million were offset by payment of dividends of DKK 4,958 million.
At 30 September 2025, Coloplast's holding of treasury shares consisted of 2,833,204 B shares, which was 31,341 less than 30 September 2024. The decrease was due to exercise of share options.
ROIC after tax and before special items was 12%.
Adjusted for the impact from the Kerecis IP transfer, ROIC after tax and before special items was 15%, on par with last year.

1) FCF adjustments: FY 2024/25 adjusted for the Skin Care divestment. FY 2023/24 adjusted for the extraordinary tax payment related to the transfer of Atos Medical's Intellectual Property (net impact of DKK 2.5 billion).

Sustainability remains a core strategic priority, supported by clear and measurable targets. In Impact4, we will reduce our environmental footprint by cutting scope 1+2 emissions by 90% and scope 3 emissions per product by 10% by 2029/30, on the path to net zero by 2045. We will also use fewer resources, targeting a 15– 20% reduction in product and packaging materials by 2029/30.
Production waste recycling increased to 83% in full year 2024/25, above the 2025 ambition of 75%, driven by continued high recycling rates at our sites in Hungary and Costa Rica, due to Coloplast's partnership with local recycling manufacturers at both sites.
In full year 2024/25 recyclable packaging was 76% and renewable materials in packaging was 71%, both improved compared to last year. The positive development was primarily driven by changes in packaging
composition, with a higher share of secondary (retail boxes) and tertiary packaging (shipping boxes), which is fully recyclable and sourced from renewable materials.
The absolute scope 1 and 2 emissions decreased by 41% in the full year 2024/25, compared to the base year 2018/19, a notable improvement compared to last year at 22%. The reduction in absolute scope 1 and 2 emissions was positively impacted by the continued phase-out of natural gas, through the installation of heat pumps, geothermal wells, district heating, energy efficiency improvements, and continued transitioning of Coloplast's company car fleet to electric vehicles.
Renewable energy use increased to 88% of the total energy use in full year 2024/25, compared to 83% in full year 2023/24, driven by the abovementioned drivers. Coloplast has initiated several renewable energy projects, which are expected to materialise during the Impact4 strategic period.
The scope 3 emissions per product in full year 2024/25 increased by 1% compared to the base year 2018/19. The increase was primarily driven by higher emissions from raw materials and transportation due to longer routes by sea, caused by global disruption followed by increased air transportation. The increase was partly offset by lower emissions from business travel, with a 61% reduction compared to last year's 50%, supported by changes in travel policy. Driving down our scope 3 emissions remains a key priority. We will continue to focus on emission-efficient transportation and accelerate efforts to mature and scale new raw materials and technologies, with a dual focus on environmental and financial viability.
The lost time injury (LTI) frequency in full year 2024/25 was 1.7 ppm, compared to 2.1 ppm in full year 2023/24, and better than our 2025 ambition of 2.0 ppm.
FY 2023/24: includes Atos Medical, except for 'Recyclable packaging', 'Renewable materials in packaging' and 'Diverse teams', while all figures exclude Kerecis, except for Lost time injury frequency. 1) All ambitions are based on the Strive25 strategy - Scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions have been updated within the new strategy Impact4, to 90% and 10% reduction by 2030 respectively. 2) Metric will only be reported on a semi-annual or full-year basis. 3) Data for FY 23/24 was restated from 27% to 22% due to the inclusion of emissions from non-production entities (NPEs). The change compared to last year is due to the purchase of RECs for NPEs. 4) From base year 2018/19. 5) Target validated by Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi). 6) Renewable energy use is measured consistent with prior years. The definition differs from the definition per E1-5 in CSRD. Renewable energy use for 2024/25 according to E1-5 is 66%. 7) Scope 3 emissions per product consistent with last year accounting method. 8) Employee survey conducted annually. Latest industry benchmark from Q2 2024/25 was 7.7.

Coloplast's interim CEO, Lars Rasmussen, has informed the Board of Directors that he will not stand for re-election at the upcoming annual general meeting on December 4, 2025. Lars Rasmussen will continue in his role as interim CEO until a new CEO is appointed.
The Board of Directors will propose the election of Niels B. Christiansen as a new member of the Board at the annual general meeting. It is expected that Niels B. Christiansen will be appointed Chair of the Board following the annual general meeting in December 2026 at the latest.
The search for Coloplast's new CEO is progressing according to plan, and an announcement will be made once a decision has been reached.
Coloplast hosted a capital markets day on 2 September 2025 in connection with announcing its new five-year strategy, Impact4. Around 110 participated in person and around 250 participated online. All material from the day is available on our website under the dedicated investor relations section.
On June 30, 2025, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in the US announced a proposed rule1) , which, among other, included an update on the Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Supplies (DMEPOS) Competitive Bidding Program (CBP). The commenting period ended August 29, 2025 and we expect an update to be published in late 2025, and for any potential changes to take effect at the earliest in 2028 based on internal assessment.
(Reaction to CMS proposed rule change).
Expected changes to skin substitutes coverage and payment in the US outpatient setting as of January 1, 2026 As of January 1, 2026 we expect two new policies to be implemented in the skin substitutes outpatient setting; the Local Coverage Determination (LCD)2) policy and the Calendar Year 2026 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule3)
Around 20% of Kerecis total revenue comes from the out-patient setting and is covered by Medicare. Kerecis currently has two product brands, MariGen® and Shield®, affected by CMS payment and coverage policies, with a current average price for the out-patient setting of \$110/ cm2.
The implementation of the final Local Coverage Determination (LCD)2) policy for skin substitute grafts/cellular and tissue-based products for the treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs) and venous leg ulcers (VLUs) in the Medicare population has been delayed until January 1, 2026.
On October 31, 2025 the CMS announced a finale rule on the Calendar Year 2026 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, where the Average Selling Price (ASP) pricing model for the physicians private office in the outpatient setting is replaced by a fixed payment of \$127.28/cm2 for all products effective January 1, 2026.
On September 2, 2025 the Secretary of Commerce initiated an investigation4) to determine the effects on the national security of imports of personal protective equipment (PPE), medical consumables, and medical equipment including devices. The commenting period ended October 17, 2025.
Our current assumption is that the impact from tariffs on Coloplast will remain immaterial, however, we are closely monitoring the situation and continue to engage with our industry association in the US.
In addition to the half-year dividend of DKK 5.00, the Board of Directors recommends that the shareholders attending the general meeting on 4 December 2025 approve a year-end dividend of DKK 18.00 per share. This will bring the total dividend paid for FY 2024/25 to DKK 23.00 per share, compared to DKK 22.00 in 2023/24.

The forward-looking statements in this announcement, including revenue and earnings guidance, do not constitute a guarantee of future results and are subject to risk, uncertainty and assumptions, the consequences of which are difficult to predict.
The forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates and assumptions and are provided on the basis of information available to us at the present time.
Major fluctuations in the exchange rates of key currencies, significant changes in the healthcare sector or major developments in the global economy may impact our ability to achieve the defined long-term targets and meet our guidance. This may impact our company's financial results.
Our financial guidance for the 2025/26 financial year has been prepared on the basis of the following assumptions for the company's principal currencies:
| GBP | USD | HUF | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average exchange rate 2023/24 |
872 | 688 | 1.92 |
| Average exchange rate 2024/25 |

| Change in spot rates compared with average exchange rate 2024/25 |
-4 % | -4 % | 4 % |
Revenue is particularly exposed to developments in USD and GBP relative to DKK. Fluctuations in HUF against DKK impact the operating profit because a substantial part of our production, and thus of our costs, are in Hungary, whereas our sales in the market are limited.

The financial statements in this report is prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies. The accounting policies for recognition and measurement applied in the preparation of the financial statements in this report are consistent with those applied in the Annual Report 2024/25
The operating segments are defined on the basis of the monthly reporting to the Executive Leadership Team, which is considered the senior operational management and the management structure. Reporting to the Executive Leadership Team is based on five operating segments: Chronic Care, Voice & Respiratory Care, Interventional Urology, Advanced Wound Dressings and Biologics.
The segment Chronic Care covers the sale of ostomy care products and continence care products. The segment Voice & Respiratory Care covers the sale of laryngectomy and tracheostomy products. The segment Interventional Urology covers the sale of urological products, including disposable products. The segment Advanced Wound Dressings covers the sale of Advanced Wound Dressings, Skin Care and contract manufacturing. The segment Biologics covers tissue-based products. The segmentation reflects the structure of reporting to the Executive Leadership Team.
The shared/non-allocated costs comprises support functions (production units and staff functions) and eliminations, as these functions do not generate revenue. While the costs of R&D for Interventional Urology, Voice & Respiratory Care and Biologics are included in the segment operating profit/loss for the above-mentioned segments, R&D activities for Chronic Care and Advanced Wound Dressings are shared functions which are included in shared/non-allocated functions. The shared/non-allocated costs also include PPA amortisation expenditures related to Voice & Respiratory Care and Biologics. Financial items and income tax are not allocated to the operating segments.
The Executive Leadership Team reviews each operating segment separately, applying their market contributions to earnings and allocating resources on that basis. The market contribution is defined as external revenue less the sum of direct production costs, distribution costs, sales costs, marketing costs and administrative expenses. Costs are allocated directly to segments. Certain immaterial indirect costs are allocated systematically to the shared/non-allocated and the reporting segments.
The Executive Leadership Team does not receive reporting on assets and liabilities by the reporting segments. Accordingly, the reporting segments are not measured in this respect, nor do we allocate resources on this background. No single customer accounts for more than 10% of revenue.

This announcement is available in a Danish and an English-language version. In the event of discrepancies, the English version shall prevail.
The Coloplast story begins back in 1954. Elise Sørensen is a nurse. Her sister Thora has just had an ostomy operation and is afraid to go out in public, fearing that her stoma might leak. Listening to her sister's problems, Elise conceives the idea of the world's first adhesive ostomy bag.
Based on Elise's idea, Aage Louis-Hansen, a civil engineer and plastics manufacturer, and his wife Johanne Louis-Hansen, a trained nurse, created the ostomy bag. A bag that does not leak, giving Thora – and thousands of people like her – the chance to live the life they want.
A simple solution that makes a difference.
Today, the Coloplast Group develops products and services that help millions of people live more independent lives through solutions tailored to their needs. Globally, our business areas include Ostomy Care, Continence Care, Voice & Respiratory Care, Wound & Tissue Repair, and Interventional Urology.
