| 2 | REPORT OF THE REVISEUR D'ENTREPRISES AGREE 47 |
In the first half of 2025, Eurofins has been able to continue its track record of profitable growth despite continued macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty and volatility. At over €3.6bn, semi-annual revenues in, traditionally, the weakest half of the year reached a new record, driven by resilient demand in most of our end markets and regions, contributions from the ramp up of start-ups initiated in the past years and the completion of reasonably valued acquisitions to drive future profitable growth. At the same time, we have been able to further improve our financial performance in all regions thanks to efforts by Eurofins teams to manage pricing, costs and capital expenditures.
In addition to improved financial performance, our financial position has been reinforced with long-term refinancings of hybrid bonds and Schuldschein loans, confirming investor confidence in Eurofins' profitability and cash flow growth trends. With financial leverage at the end of June 2025 at 2.1x, our solid balance sheet has ample capacity to allow us to continue with our strategic investment plans.
Looking forward to the end of 2025, Eurofins' management expects that the business momentum will improve relative to the first half of the year due to the resilience of demand in Life and BioPharma Product Testing and easier prior year comparables in certain ancillary activities in BioPharma and routine clinical testing in France. In terms of profitability, notwithstanding potential currency translation effects, we remain confident in our ability to make improvements to our adjusted EBITDA margins18 and cash generation in 2025 vs 2024, while staying on track to achieve our 2027 financial objectives. Strategically, we remain laser focused on completing our 5-year investment programme in 2027, that will sustainably make Eurofins the most productive, digital, innovative and customer-centric network of laboratories in the end markets and regions we serve, providing an unmatched level of service and quality to our clients and an inspiring, rewarding and sustainable workplace for our teams.
Eurofins is confirming its objectives for FY 2025 and for the mid-term to FY 2027:
Sincerely,
Dr Gilles Martin CEO Dated 23 July 2025

Reported revenues increased year-on-year to €3,612m in H1 2025 vs €3,419m in H1 2024, supported by resilient organic growth13 of 3.9% (2.9% excluding adjustment for public working days) and acquisitions,
which contributed €49m to consolidated revenues in H1 2025. Note that H1 2024 pro-forma revenues include a contribution of €77m from acquisitions that were completed, but not consolidated, in FY 2024. In contrast, a year-on-year headwind of 0.7% from foreign currency negatively impacted revenue development.

In the first six months of 2025, Eurofins increased its net surface area of laboratory, office, and storage space by 30,000 m², resulting in a total net floor area of 1,863,000 m² at the end of June 2025. Through the delivery of building projects, building purchases and acquisitions as part of its strategy to lease less and own more of its strategic sites, Eurofins added 26,000 m² in total surface area of owned sites. Meanwhile, leased surfaces only increased by 4,000 m². In terms of ownership, the proportion of net floor area owned by Eurofins as at 30 June 2025 reached 35.4%, a continued increase compared to the 34.5% owned by Eurofins at the end of 2024, supported by the projects listed below.
In Lidköping, Sweden, a significant project at an existing facility housing Food and Feed Testing and Environment Testing operations was completed, with more than 2,300 m² either renovated or expanded, bringing the size of the Lidköping campus to 9,600 m². This renovation and expansion activity resulted in the addition of added biofuel laboratory capacity, distribution areas, laboratory changing rooms and warehouse space, and also supported the consolidation of several functions previously spread across multiple sites into one single location.
In response to growth in the Japanese Environment Testing market and following the successful commissioning of a new 3,000 m² laboratory in Hamamatsu in 2023, Eurofins completed the purchase of a previously leased 926 m² facility in Hamamatsu to strengthen its presence in this strategic sector. The site houses a PFAS testing laboratory and the newly acquired business Quality Laboratory Environment Center Ltd. This acquisition reinforces Eurofins' long-term commitment to environmental and public health testing in the Japan and the Asia Pacific region.
In March 2025, Eurofins Environment Testing North Central in the U.S. successfully completed the fit-out of a new 4,640 m² facility in Chicago (IL) to consolidate existing operations and provide capacity for future growth. Additionally, some space will be utilised by Eurofins Food and Feed Testing to build out a microbiology testing laboratory. The new facility is equipped with motion sensors for automated lighting, online HVAC monitoring systems, and air curtains at high-traffic doorways to enhance energy efficiency.
In May 2025, Eurofins acquired a previously leased facility outside of London, UK housing Eurofins Selcia, a global contract research provider of integrated drug discovery, medicinal chemistry and 14C radiolabeled compounds. This facility, comprises 3,822 m² of floor area and is situated on an 8,580 m² plot, providing ample space for future expansion.
As part of the acquisition of SYNLAB's clinical diagnostics operations in Spain, Eurofins has integrated a state-of-the-art laboratory in Barcelona into its Clinical Testing network. The 10,000 m² facility features over 5,000 m² of advanced laboratory space and houses one of the country's most powerful automated analytical systems.
For the remainder of 2025 and for 2026, Eurofins is planning to add 157,000 m² of laboratory and operational space through building projects, acquisitions, new leases and consolidation of sites, as well as through the renovation of 33,000 m² of its current sites to bring them to the highest standard.
Adjusted1 EBITDA3 was €810m in H1 2025. The adjusted EBITDA margin18 was 22.4%, an improvement of 30bps vs the 22.1% recorded in H1 2024. The improvement was realised through a combination of pricing adaptations, better capacity utilisation and cost efficiency initiatives.

Separately Disclosed Items2 (SDI) at the EBITDA3 level decreased year-on-year to €37m (equivalent to 1.0% of reported revenues, a 20bps decline year-on-year) and comprised:
• One-off costs from network expansion, integrations, reorganisations and discontinued operations, and other non-recurring income and costs in the mature scope14 totalled €17m, equivalent to only 0.5% of the mature scope's14 revenues, and contain significant amounts for severances and moving costs for ongoing restructuration (mainly in Germany and the U.S.) .
• Temporary losses and other costs related to start-ups and acquisitions in significant restructuring in the non-mature scope14 totalled €20m, a reduction vs €26m in H1 2024. This decrease was primarily due to improved profitability in many start-up activities such as the Genomics and In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) business lines.
Reported EBITDA3 improved by 8.3% year-on-year to €773m in H1 2025 vs €714m in H1 2024. In terms of Reported EBITDA3 as a proportion of total revenues, the margin improved year-on-year by 50bps to 21.4% in H1 2025 vs 20.9% in H1 2024.

In Europe, the 5% year-on-year increase in reported EBITDA3 resulted from pricing initiatives, volume growth and cost discipline measures. These measures helped to counter the negative impact of tariff cuts in France related to routine clinical testing that took place in September 2024 and the acquisition of SYNLAB's clinical diagnostics operations in Spain.
In North America, solid growth in Food Testing, Environment Testing, and BioPharma Product Testing, alongside controlled personnel and consumables costs, resulted in a 140bps year-on-year increase in reported EBITDA3 margin.
In Rest of the World, the year-on-year expansion of profits (by 13.9%) and reported EBITDA3 margin (by 140bps) resulted from strong volume growth and disciplined cost management.
Depreciation and amortisation (D&A), including expenses related to IFRS 16, increased by 9.9% year-onyear to €310m. As a percentage of revenues, D&A stood at 8.6% of revenues in H1 2025.
Net finance costs amounted to €54m in H1 2025. The decrease vs €69m in H1 2024 resulted from a positive effect on finance income from currency translation on cash pools and reduced finance costs due to less interest paid on debt instruments.
Due to the increase in profitability and a slightly higher tax rate (28.8% in H1 2025 vs 27.0% in H1 2024, as the prior year tax rate was positively impacted by one-offs in North America), the income tax expense increased to €100m in H1 2025 vs €81m in H1 2024.
Reported net profit7 in H1 2025 stood at €247m (6.8% of revenues and 12.3% higher than €220m in H1 2024). When considered in combination with the reduction in basic weighted average shares outstanding (182m in H1 2025 vs 193m in H1 2024), the reported basic EPS8 in H1 2025 was €1.20, an increase of 18.4% vs €1.01 in H1 2024.

Net cash provided by operating activities in H1 2025 of €526m was stable vs €530m in H1 2024, as improved profitability was counterbalanced by higher year-on-year outflows for net working capital12 (NWC) variation and cash taxes. Following impacts mainly related to COVID-19, the NWC12 intensity was particularly high at the end of 2023, leading to a one-off lower cash outflow for the change in NWC12 in H1 2024.
In relative terms, Eurofins was able to improve its net working capital12 intensity, decreasing it from 6.3% at the end of June 2024 to 5.5% at the end of June 2025. The year-on-year improvement mostly resulted from a decrease in Days of Sales Outstanding (56 in H1 2025 vs 59 in H1 2024).
Cash generation more than adequately financed net capex9 of €251m. The decline in net operating capex of €173m in H1 2025 (4.8% of revenues) vs €190m in H1 2024 (5.5% of revenues) reflects discipline in programmes related to capacity expansion, particularly in areas where growth is more muted at the moment. Meanwhile, Eurofins invested €78m to own and develop its high-throughput laboratory campuses. Free Cash Flow to the Firm10 (FCFF) before investment in owned sites16 was €354m in the reporting period, an improvement vs €341m in the prior year period.
FCFF10 was steady at €276m in H1 2025 vs €279m in H1 2024. Likewise, cash conversion (FCFF10 / Reported EBITDA3 ) of 36% in H1 2025 was relatively constant vs 39% in H1 2024.
During H1 2025, the Group completed 22 business combinations including 11 acquisitions of legal entities and 11 acquisitions of assets. Net cash outflow on acquisitions completed during the period and in previous years (in case of payment of deferred considerations) amounted to €158m.
Net cash provided by financing activities of €57 in H1 2025 was influenced by the following factors:
the rating agencies Moody's and Fitch. The proceeds of this issuance are to be used for the refinancing of its €400m hybrid bond issued on 13 November 2017 with a first call date on 13 November 2025 ("2025 Hybrid Bond"). To this end, Eurofins concluded a tender offer in April 2025 for the 2025 Hybrid Bond, for which it received and accepted €194m in valid tenders. Eurofins plans to call the outstanding €206m of the 2025 Hybrid Bond in November 2025.
• In June 2025, Eurofins successfully issued a new €500m Schuldschein loan (the "New SSD") structured in tranches of 5, 7 and 10 years. The proceeds of the New SSD will primarily be used to refinance the €234m in Schuldschein loans, with €59m already repaid in June 2025 and the remainder maturing in July and October 2025, respectively. The remainder of the New SSD will be used for general corporate purposes.
Due to the aforementioned factors, at the end of June 2025, gross debt stood at €4,114m while net debt11 stood at €3,360m. The corresponding leverage (net debt11 to last 12 months proforma adjusted1 EBITDA3 ) was 2.1x, an increase of 0.2x vs the end of December 2024 and well within Eurofins' 1.5x-2.5x target range. Eurofins has no major refinancing requirements until the outstanding €302m senior Eurobonds become due for repayment on 17 July 2026. Eurofins also possesses a solid overall liquidity position, which includes a cash position of €753m as at 30 June 2025, as well as access to over €1bn of committed, undrawn mid-term (3-5 years) bilateral bank credit lines
Start-ups or green-field laboratory projects are generally pursued in either new markets, in emerging markets in particular, where there are often limited viable acquisition opportunities, or in developed markets where Eurofins transfers technology developed by its R&D and Competence Centres abroad or expands geographically to complete its national hub and spoke laboratory network in an increasing number of countries.
In H1 2025, the Group opened 6 new start-up laboratories and 19 new start-up blood collection points (BCPs). The 325 start-ups and 118 BCPs launched since 2000 have made material contributions to the overall organic growth13 of the Group, accounting for 0.8% out of the 2.9% organic growth13 achieved in H1 2025. Their EBITDA3 margin continues to progress while remaining dilutive to the Group.
Of the 325 start-ups and 118 BCPs the Group has launched since 2000, 61% are located in Europe, 14% in North America and 25% in the Rest of the World, of which a significant number are in high growth regions in Asia. By activity, 33% are in Life, 16% in BioPharma, 43% in Diagnostic Services & Products (BCPs are accounted for in this area of activity) and 7% are in Consumer & Technology Products Testing).
During H1 2025, the Group completed 22 business combinations consisting of 11 acquisitions of legal entities and 11 acquisitions of assets for a total investment of €158m. Prior to their acquisition, these entities generated revenues of about €210m in 2024 and comprised approximately 1,900 employees.
Since 1 July 2025, Eurofins has completed 4 small business combinations, one in Europe, one in North America and two in Rest of the World. The total annual revenues of these acquisitions amounted to over €7m in 2024 for an aggregate acquisition price of ca. €9m. These acquisitions employ around 90 employees.
Related party transactions are disclosed in note 2.12 to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended 30 June 2025.
There have been no material changes in the related party transactions described in the 2024 Annual Report.
There are a number of potential external risks and uncertainties which could have a material impact on the Group's performance in the remaining six months of the financial year, or in future periods, and which could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. Other than the increased uncertainty brought geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties, and the potential economic crisis that may follow, the directors do not consider that the principal risks and uncertainties as outlined in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2024 have changed materially for Eurofins since the publication of the report, but would like to elaborate on the following subjects:
Currently ongoing and potential new geopolitical situations concerning countries that are suppliers of oil, natural gas and other energy sources can lead to increased and/or volatile energy costs and supply chain challenges.
As one example, European countries have become highly reliant on natural gas as a component of their energy transition strategies and significant volumes of gas are purchased from Russia. As another example, China, India and other Asian countries purchase sizable quantities of Iran's oil exports. Disruptions to these sources and/or diversification toward other sources may lead to energy shortages and/or increases in energy costs in affected geographies. As a consequence of these increases, companies in those geographies could be exposed to significant shifts in values, increased business interruption and contingent business interruption risks, and supply chain problems.
Eurofins acknowledges that the current geopolitical environment has created an elevated potential of risk related, but not restricted, to: 1) trade policies such as tariffs and export controls that may impact the cost and availability of materials and technologies; 2) changes to immigration policies and related enforcement that may affect labour markets, resulting in wage inflation and/or shortages of qualified personnel; and 3) changes to regulation or regulatory bodies that may affect how products and services are developed, approved, produced and distributed, as well as levels of supply and demand for these products and services. Such changes may impact Eurofins' suppliers, clients, partners and businesses in countries affected by these risks.
Updated information about financial risks is disclosed in note 2.10 to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended 30 June 2025.
A detailed description of other major risks and uncertainties identified by Eurofins in its main business activities, and how the Group seeks to mitigate these risks, can be found on pages 162 to 180 of the 2024 Annual Report which is available at https://www.eurofins.com/investors/reports-and-presentations/.
Dated 23 July 2025
For the purpose of organic growth calculation for year Y, the relevant scope used is the scope of businesses that have been consolidated in the Group's income statement from the previous financial year (Y-1). Revenue contribution from companies acquired in the course of Y-1 but not consolidated for the full year are adjusted as if they had been consolidated as of 1st January Y-1. All revenues from businesses acquired since 1st January Y are excluded from the calculation. Also, all revenues from discontinued activities / disposals in both the previous financial year (Y-1) and year Y are excluded from the calculation.
14 Mature scope: excludes start-ups and acquisitions in significant restructuring. A business will generally be considered mature when: i) The Group's systems, structure and processes have been deployed; ii) It has been audited, accredited and qualified and used by the relevant regulatory bodies and the targeted client base; iii) It no longer requires above-average annual capital expenditures, exceptional restructuring or abnormally large costs with respect to current revenues for deploying new Group IT systems. The list of entities classified as mature is reviewed at the beginning of each year and is relevant for the whole year.
Non-mature scope: includes start-ups or acquisitions in significant restructuring. These are companies or business activities established to develop an existing business model, transfer technology or a specific strategy. They are generally greenfield operations, or, in certain cases, newly acquired businesses bought to achieve a target market share in a given geography that are not operating optimally, but that have the potential to operate efficiently and profitably once restructured or reorganised to the Group's model.

Eurofins has not been formally notified of any shareholder, other than Analytical Bioventures SCA (ABSCA), with an interest in excess of 5% of the voting rights as of 30 June 2025.
The Company joined the CAC 40 index of Euronext Paris in September 2021 and decided, under the 2019 Buy-Back Programme as approved by the April 2019 AGM and as further approved by the Board of Directors on 20 October 2021, to enter into a regulated liquidity contract with a provider of financial services effective on 1st November 2021 with annual tacit renewal as from 1st January 2022 in order to further enhance the liquidity of its stock.
With regard notably to article 11 (1)(i) of the Takeover Law, the Annual General Meeting of shareholders held on 25 April 2024 (the "April 2024 AGM") granted the Board of Directors a new share buy-back authorisation whereby the Board of Directors is authorised to purchase Eurofins shares on the stock exchange within a period of five years from the date of the April 2024 AGM. The maximum number of shares that may be purchased and/or cancelled is limited to 10% of the total number of shares issued on the date of the latest meeting of the Board of Directors deciding the implementation of the new buy-back programme. The minimum buying price shall be equal to the nominal value of one share and the maximum buying price should not exceed 110% of the share price traded on Euronext Paris.
The liquidity contract was terminated by the Company in February 2025. In the frame of this liquidity contract under the supervision of the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers, transactions have been executed in the first two months of 2025 during which a total number of 412,570 shares were purchased at an average price of €49.32 per share and 381,903 shares were sold at an average price of €49.45 per share. As of 30 June 2025, the Company owned none of its own shares under this liquidity contract.
Under the above-mentioned authorisations, Eurofins launched numerous buy-back programmes of its own shares, which the Company may at any time interrupt in view of market conditions and/or the evolution of its investment strategy. The shares to be purchased under these programmes will be primarily used to hedge the Company's Long-Term Incentive plans but may also be cancelled or used to partially finance acquisitions.
On 20 December 2024, the Company announced its fourth share repurchase program for a maximum amount representing up to 2% of its share capital over a maximum period of twenty-four months until 22 December 2026. The Company mandated an independent provider of financial services to execute this programme. Between 23 December 2024 and 19 March 2025, 3,830,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of €49.48, representing 1.98% of the Company's share capital.
On 19 March 2025, the Company announced a fifth share repurchase programme for a maximum amount representing up to 4.5% of its share capital, over a maximum period of twelve months until 19 March 2026. The Company mandated an independent provider of financial services to execute this programme. Between 20 March 2025 and 24 April 2025, 3,737,475 shares were repurchased, representing 1.94% of the Company's share capital, at an average price of €49.50.
With effect as of 8 April 2025, as authorised by the April 2024 AGM, the Company's Board of Directors decided to cancel 10,818,183 shares repurchased as part of previous share repurchase programmes and representing 5.61% of the Company's share capital. As a result, the Company's share capital was reduced by €108,181.83 from €1,929,811.83 to €1,821,630 (the "New Share Capital").
At the Annual General Meeting of shareholders held on 24 April 2025 (the "April 2025 AGM"), the share buy-back authorisation from the April 2024 AGM was renewed, which authorised the Board of Directors to purchase Eurofins shares on the stock exchange within a period of five years from the date of the April 2025 AGM. The maximum number of shares that may be purchased and/or cancelled is limited to 10% of the total number of shares issued on the date of the latest meeting of the Board of Directors deciding the implementation of the new buy-back programme.
On 24 April 2025, the Company announced a sixth share repurchase programme for a maximum amount representing up to 4.5% of its New Share Capital, over a maximum period of twelve months until 24 April 2026. The Company mandated an independent provider of financial services to execute this programme. Between 25 April 2025 and 30 June 2025, 1,880,000 shares were repurchased, representing 1.03% of the Company's New Share Capital, at an average price of €56.37.
During the first six months of 2025, 29,950 shares were used and delivered to the benefit of holders of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) and 316,159 shares were used and delivered to the benefit of holders of Stock Options.
In aggregate as of 30 June 2025, the Company owned a total of 4,263,221 of its own shares for a total value of €257.7m (share price: €60.44) and a net book value of €222.9m, representing a nominal value of €42,632.21 and 2.34% of the Company's New Share Capital.
The Board of Directors confirms that, to the best of its knowledge, the half year interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2025 prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as endorsed in the European Union give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of Eurofins Scientific SE and its consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole, including an indication of the important events that have occurred during the first six months of the financial year and their impact on the half year interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2025, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that they face for the remaining six months of the financial year, and the major related parties transactions.

Eurofins Scientific SE (The "Company") is legally and commercially registered in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg under the number B 167 775.
The Company's shares are traded on Euronext Paris stock exchange under the ISIN code FR0014000MR3 (ticker ERF) and the Company has joined the CAC 40 index on 17 September 2021. The Company's headoffice is located at 23, Val Fleuri, L-1526 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
The Group is included as a subsidiary in the consolidated financial statements of Analytical Bioventures S.C.A., located at 23 Val Fleuri, L-1526 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been authorised for issuance by the Board of Directors on 22 July 2025.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2025 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as endorsed in the European Union. The Group has prepared the interim condensed financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. The Group considers that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt over this assumption. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended 31 December 2024. All majority-owned subsidiaries of the Company are included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim condensed financial statements are presented in Euros. Due to rounding, amounts may not add up to totals provided.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statement for the year ended 31 December 2024, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of 1 January 2025. The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. One amendment applies for the first time in 2025, but does not have an impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.
New standards, interpretations and amendments applicable for the reporting period
•Amendments to IAS 21: Lack of Exchangeability, effective on or after January 1, 2025.
New standards, interpretations and amendments not applicable as of reporting date
Eurofins provides various alternative performance measures in its interim condensed consolidated financial statements. These measures exclude certain items because of the nature of these items and the impact they have on the analysis of the underlying business performance and trends. Management believes that presenting these APMs enhances investors' understanding of the Group's core operating results and future prospects, consistent with internal reporting used by management to measure and forecast the Group's performance. This information should be considered in addition to, but not in lieu of, the Group's operating results as reported in accordance with IFRS. These APMs are described in further detail in Notes 1.20 and 1.21 of the Group's consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2024.
In order to increase clarity, from 2025 onwards, the EBITDA impact of Separately Disclosed Items, which was previously presented on the Operating costs, net line as a net impact, is now split between the Revenues and Operating costs, net lines, leading to the same EBITDA impact on the EBITDA line of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Income Statement. This change of presentation doesn't affect the Reported results column, nor the EBITDA line in all three columns (Adjusted results, Separately disclosed items, Reported results) of the Interim Condensed Consolidated Income Statement. 2024 figures have been restated accordingly.
Adjusted results – reflect the ongoing performance of the mature and recurring activities excluding "separately disclosed items".
Mature scope excludes start-ups and acquisitions in significant restructuring. A business will generally be considered mature when: i) The Group's systems, structure and processes have been deployed; ii) It has been audited, accredited, qualified and used by the relevant regulatory bodies and the targeted client base; iii) It no longer requires above-average annual capital expenditures, exceptional restructuring or abnormally large costs with respect to their current revenues for deploying new Group IT systems. The list of entities classified as mature is reviewed at the beginning of each year and is relevant for the whole year.
The non-mature scope of start-ups or acquisitions in significant restructuring are companies or business activities established to develop an existing business model, transfer technology or a specific strategy. They are generally greenfield operations, or, in certain cases, newly acquired businesses bought to achieve a target market share in a given geography that are not operating optimally, but that have the potential to operate efficiently and profitably once restructured or reorganised to the Group's model.
Separately disclosed items (SDI) – include:
EBITDA – Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation, share-based payment charge and acquisition-related expenses, net and gain and loss on disposal of subsidiaries, net.
EBIT – EBITAS less share-based payment charge and acquisition-related expenses, net and gain and loss on disposal of subsidiaries, net.
Adjusted EBITDA margin: adjusted EBITDA divided by reported revenues.
Net capex – Purchase, capitalisation of intangible assets, purchase of property, plant and equipment less capex trade payables change of the period and proceeds from disposals of such assets.
Free Cash Flow to the Firm – Net cash provided by operating activities, less Net capex.
Net debt – Current and non-current borrowings, less Cash and cash equivalents.
Net working capital – Inventories, trade receivables and contract assets, prepaid expenses and other current assets less trade accounts payable, contract liabilities and other current liabilities excluding accrued interest receivable and payable.
Eurofins has three reportable segments: Europe, North America and Rest of the World. Europe is the combination of three reporting segments: France, DACH countries (Germany, Austria and Switzerland) and Other European Countries (OEC). Other European Countries include Benelux, Nordic Region, UK and Ireland, Southern Europe and Central & Eastern Europe. North America corresponds to the U.S. and Canada. As Eurofins still generates modest revenues in Asia and Middle East, South America, Australia and New Zealand, those 3 regions that represent future growth are followed internally in a single segment "Rest of the World".
The key segmental performance measures are the EBITDA and EBITAS, which Management believes are the most relevant measure to evaluate the financial performance of the reportable segments.

The EBITDA impact of the Separately Disclosed Items (SDIs) amounted to €36.7m (€42.8m in 2024). This includes one-off costs from network expansion, integrations, reorganisations and discontinued operations, and other non-recurring income in our mature business, and temporary losses and other costs and income from our non-mature scope related to start-ups and acquisitions in significant restructuring.
One-off costs from network expansion, integrations, reorganisations and discontinued operations, and other non-recurring income and costs in the mature scope totalled €16.6m and contain significant amounts for severances and moving costs for ongoing restructuration (mainly in Germany and the U.S.).
Revenues related to start-ups and acquisitions undergoing significant restructuring amounted to €250.6m in the first half of 2025 (€188.9m in the first half of 2024).
This scope generated losses at EBITDA level totalling to €20.1m, lower than in 2024 (€26.2m). This decrease was primarily due to improvements in profitability in many start-up activities, notably in the Genomics and In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) business lines as they continue making progress with post COVID refocussing measures.
Depreciation costs increased in 2025 mainly due to the high number of start-ups launched in the last 12 months, and amounted to €30.8m, higher than in 2024 (€22.0m).
Consequently, this scope generated losses at EBITAS level totalling to €50.9m, which is slightly higher than in 2024 (€48.2m).

Other financial income relates to interest income on short term deposits, they were significantly higher in the first half of 2024 due to a high level of deposits following the issuance of Eurobond in September 2023.
Net foreign exchange gain or loss is a non-cash and unrealised foreign exchange variation mainly related to a USD net debt position in Eurofins Finance Luxembourg S.à r.l., the Group's treasury entity which manages cash centralization for Group companies. In the first half of 2025 it was a gain of €20.1m while it was a loss of 7.1m in the previous year. In 2025, the net foreign exchange gain is caused by the depreciation of -12.2% of the USD versus € (using Consolidated balance sheet end of period exchange rates). Net foreign exchange loss in 2024 was mainly caused by the appreciation of 3.0% of the USD versus €.

1 SYNLAB Spain
As the Group carries out multiple acquisitions each year, in accordance with paragraph B67 of IFRS 3, the Group is only disclosing individually acquisitions above an acquisition price threshold of €40m.
On the 31 March 2025, Eurofins acquired SYNLAB's clinical diagnostics operations in Spain. SYNLAB's clinical diagnostics operations in Spain comprise clinical diagnostics testing services, including genetics and anatomical pathology services, provided throughout the country, achieving revenues of approximately €140m in 2024. SYNLAB's operations strongly complement the Eurofins network's existing clinical diagnostics operations in Spain, led by Eurofins Megalab, a specialist in all types of clinical diagnostics testing and in managing intra-hospital laboratories in Spain. The SYNLAB's operations employ ca. 1,300 staff.
The businesses acquired contributed to Eurofins' consolidated revenues for €49.2m and to consolidated net profit for €0.7m from their acquisition date to 30 June 2025. Their contribution to Adjusted EBITDA for the same period amounted to €3.4m.
If these businesses had been acquired as of 1 January 2025, the Group's consolidated revenues would have been increased by an additional €50.5m, and consolidated net profit would have been decreased by €-2.3m. The Adjusted EBITDA would also have been increased by an additional €1.2m.

| Net cash outflow on acquisitions | 158.3 | 32.3 | 246.4 |
The net cash outflow on acquisitions concerns both acquisitions completed in 2025 and in previous years (in case of payment of deferred considerations). During the first six months of 2025, the Group paid an aggregate amount due to former shareholders of previously acquired companies of €23.9m.
In 2025, the Group acquired buildings and real estate assets in conjunction with the acquisitions for an amount of €31.7m, included in property, plant and equipment, located in various geographies such as Spain (Barcelona, Valencia) in relation with SYNLAB acquisition and Germany (Kiel). The Group acquired right-of-use assets of operating leases for an amount of €10.4m in 2025. The intangible assets include amounts recognized for the fair value of acquired brands, technology and customer-based assets for an amount of €28.1m included in intangible assets.
The potential undiscounted amounts of all future payments that the Group could be required to make under these arrangements are estimated between €8m and €13m, depending on changes in financial performance of acquired companies. These amounts have been recorded in "Amounts due for business acquisitions".
The goodwill is attributable to the workforce of the acquired business and the synergies expected to arise after acquisition.
The part of goodwill and other intangible assets related to acquisitions completed in 2025 that is tax deductible represents an amount of €65m.
The following put and call agreements were exercised in 2025 to acquire for an amount of €9.4m:
During 2025, the Group discontinued some small businesses mainly in food testing in Germany and clinical diagnostic services in Middle East that contributed consolidated revenues of €1m in 2025 and €7m in 2024. The divestment or discontinuation of these businesses did not result in a material loss on disposal.
The Group performs its annual impairment test over goodwill in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. The Group's impairment test for goodwill is based on value-in-use calculations. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different cash generating units were disclosed in the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
The Group also considers the relationship between its market capitalization and its book value, among other factors, when reviewing for indicators of impairment.
The reconciliation of the carrying amount of goodwill and intangible assets at the beginning and end of the reporting period is presented below:

Based on the analysis of the business performance as of and for the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Group has not identified any goodwill impairment and therefore no goodwill impairment has been recorded for the six months ended 30 June 2025.
The Group also reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever triggering events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable (see Note 2.3).

On 1 November 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Kepler Cheuvreux in order to enhance the liquidity of its shares. This agreement was renewed for one-year periods thereafter. An amount of cash of €15m has been allocated to a liquidity account by the Company to fund this program. In February 2025, the Company ended the Liquidity contract and cancelled the remaining 181,810 treasury shares in April 2025. As of 30 June 2025, the Company held no own shares under this liquidity contract (151,143 shares for an amount of €7.2m as of 31 December 2024).
As per the authorisation granted by the Company's Annual General Meeting of shareholders held on 25 April 2019 (the "April 2019 AGM"), the Board of Directors decided on 20 October 2023 to initiate a second Share Repurchase programme which allows for the acquisition of a maximum amount representing up to 2% of the Company's share capital for a maximum period of twentyfour months expiring on 24 October 2025, subject to the renewal of the authorisation of such share repurchase plan by the annual general shareholders' meeting (AGM) of the Company to be held in April 2024; this authorisation was renewed by the Company's Annual ordinary General meeting of shareholders held on 25 April 2024 (the "April 2024 AGM"). It granted the Board of Directors a new share buy-back authorisation whereby the Board of Directors is authorised to purchase Eurofins shares on the stock exchange within a period of five years from the date of the April 2024 AGM.
On 20 December 2024, Eurofins launched a fourth Share Repurchase Programme for a maximum amount representing up to 2% of its share capital. The fourth programme took place between 23 December 2024 and 19 March 2025 and 3,830,000 shares were repurchased, representing 1.98% of the former share capital.
On 19 March 2025, Eurofins launched a fifth Share Repurchase Programme for a maximum amount representing up to 4.5% of its share capital. The fifth programme took place between 20 March 2025 and 24 April 2025 and 3,737,475 shares were repurchased, representing 2.1% of the current share capital.
At the Annual General Meeting of shareholders held on 24 April 2025 (the "April 2025 AGM"), the share buy-back authorisation from the April 2024 AGM was renewed, which authorised the Board of Directors to purchase Eurofins shares on the stock exchange within a period of five years from the date of the April 2025 AGM.
On 25 April 2025, Eurofins launched a sixth Share Repurchase Programme for a maximum amount representing up to 4.5% of its share capital. The new programme commenced on 25 April 2025 and will last until 24 April 2026. As at the end of June 2025, 1,880,000 shares were repurchased under this programme, representing 1.0% of the current share capital.
The Company may at any time interrupt this programme in view of market conditions and/or evolution of its investment strategy.
The purchased shares under these programmes will be primarily used to hedge the Company's Long-Term Incentive plans but may also be cancelled, used to partially finance acquisitions or for other purposes approved by the Board of Directors and within the authorisation of the AGM.
Under these Share Repurchase Plans, as of 30 June 2025, the Company held 4,263,221 of its own shares (2.34% of the total share capital) representing an amount of €222.9m (6,048,228 shares for an amount of €300.6m as of 31 December 2024, 3.13% of the total share capital).
Some treasury shares owned under these plans (10,636,373) have been cancelled in April 2025.

In April 2025 Eurofins raised €400m in its latest Euro hybrid capital public issuance. This instrument has no specified maturity date. It will bear a fixed annual coupon of 5.75% for the first 7 years (until 4 April 2032) with a first call date on 4 January 2032, upon which date Eurofins can elect to repay the bonds. This issuance enables Eurofins to maintain its targeted capital structure that includes an adequate level of hybrid capital of €1bn to support its targeted range of financial leverage of 1.5-2.5x.
In April 2025, Eurofins purchased €194.0m of its €400m 3.250% hybrid capital (ISIN: XS1716945586) issued on 13 November 2017 with a first call date on 13 November 2025.

There are a number of potential risks and uncertainties which could have a material impact on the Group's performance over the remaining six months of the financial year and could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. Management does not consider that the principal risks and uncertainties have changed materially since the publication of the Group's consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended 31 December 2024 as described in the risk section of the half year management report (especially on energy and power and geopolitics), including the potential risks which could arise from the conflict in Ukraine and in the Middle East and other areas such as Iran. Revenues generated in Russia, Ukraine or Iran are negligible and are immaterial in Israel.
The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks such as currency risks, interest rate risks, credit risks and liquidity risks. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required. Additional disclosures can be found in the "Risks and uncertainties" section of the management report as of and for the six months ended 30 June 2025. They should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual management report as of and for the year ended 31 December 2024.
There have not been any significant changes to the risk management approach or to risk management policies since 31 December 2024.
The Group regularly evaluates relevant climate-related reporting requirements and risks as evidenced in the section "Risk factors report 2024" (Section 5.5.7). As of 30 June 2025, the Group does not believe that the impact of climate related matters has materially changed since its year end reporting.
The Group classifies its fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
The carrying and fair values of the financial assets and liabilities as of 30 June 2025 are as follows:
| As of 30 June 2025 | |||||

The change in FVTOCI corresponds to a negative amount of €-9.7m over the six-month period ended 30 June 2025 (Statement of Comprehensive Income).
Contingent consideration for acquisitions are level 3 financial instruments and has been revalued as of and for the six months ended 30 June 2025 for an additional amount of €2.3m. The accounting policy for these financial instruments is defined in Note 1.3 of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
There were no changes in the Group's valuation process, valuation techniques and types of inputs used in the fair value measurements during the period.
There were no transfers between levels during the six-month period ended 30 June 2025.
With the exception of borrowings, the Group considers the carrying value of the financial instruments to approximate their fair value.
Derivative financial instrument liabilities are mainly related to a virtual Power Purchase Agreement (vPPA) in Spain in order to hedge its floating electricity price against a fixed price and reduce the carbon emission intensity and achieve carbon neutrality by 2025.
Since July 2020, Eurofins has held a public long-term issuer credit rating by Moody's Investor Services ("Moody's"). The Group's investment grade rating is Baa3 with a stable outlook. Moody's confirmed the Baa3 rating in April 2025.
In May 2021, Eurofins received its second credit rating by Fitch Ratings which assigned an investment grade credit rating of BBBwith a stable outlook. Fitch Ratings confirmed the BBB- rating and the stable outlook in July 2024 and again in March 2025.
Foreign exchange exposure also arises as a result of inter-company loans and deposits. When the lending company enters into such arrangements, the financing is generally provided in the functional currency of the subsidiary entity. When such loans would be considered to be part of the net investment in the subsidiary, net investment hedging would be applied. Translation exposure of foreign-currency equity invested in consolidated entities is generally not hedged. The currency translation reserve amounts to €-223.3m as of 30 June 2025 (€351.7m as of 31 December 2024). Net current-period change, before tax, of the currency translation reserve of €-575.1m is mainly due to the development of the USD versus the Euro and relates to equity in foreign operations for €-384.5 and net investment re-evaluation for €-190.7m.
The remeasurement of defined benefit liability in Other Comprehensive Income and Employee benefit obligations corresponds to an amount of €2.7m over the six-month period ended 30 June 2025 due to the increase of the discount rates (€-1.4m over the six-month period ended 30 June 2024).
The following liabilities and borrowings are subject to covenants or are collateralized by Group assets:
| In € millions | 30 June 2025 | 31 December 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Bank borrowings secured over buildings and other assets | 138.7 | 143.1 |
| Finance leases secured over buildings and other assets1 | 31.3 | 36.0 |
| Bank borrowings secured by covenants and assets | 1.3 | 1.1 |
| Total borrowings and leases secured | 171.2 | 180.2 |
| Bank borrowing secured by covenants | - | - |
| Bank borrowing guaranteed by the direct parent of the borrower | - | - |
| Total | 171.2 | 180.2 |
1 Finance lease liabilities are effectively secured as the rights to the leased asset revert to the lessor in the event of default.
All of the above amounts are included in the Group's interim condensed consolidated balance sheet.
The Group has contingent liabilities in respect of commercial and tax claims arising in the ordinary course of business in connection with the services they provide. The majority of commercial claims is covered by business-specific insurance.
An on-going litigation that could cause significant financial or reputational damage for Eurofins continues in the context of the detection of biological contaminants in dairy products in Europe. The Group's responsibility has not been proven and the damages that are claimed have been neither established nor measured. Please also refer to the risk factors in the section 5.1.4 of the 2024 Management Report for further information.
For tax claims, when the Group estimates that the risk is not likely, no provision is booked. There are a limited number of pending claims, qualified as contingent liability by third-party legal advisors and the Company.
The Group has entered into legal proceedings against the former shareholders of Eurofins Genoma Group Srl in Italy for breach of non-compete and other contractual clauses. The Group has an outstanding contingent consideration arrangement for this former acquisition, for which €27.5m has been accrued in "Amounts due from business acquisitions" within non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of 30 June 2025 and 31 December 2024. The final amount payable is subject to the legal proceedings.
In July 2024, Eurofins disputed the validity of SGS' purported termination of the agreement to divest its crop science operations to Eurofins and considers the master asset purchase agreement to remain in full force and effect. Eurofins remains committed to following through on its acquisition of the Crop Science Operations and is considering all options to ensure the completion of the transaction.
Risk factors are described in section 5 of the 2024 Management report.
Based on the information available to date, the Group considers that the outcome of these disputes and legal claims currently in process is unlikely to have a significant adverse impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements other than those already provided for.

We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Eurofins Scientifics S.E. comprising the interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2025, and the related interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the interim condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the interim condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the six months period then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes ("the Interim Financial Information"). The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with International Accounting Standard IAS 34 on Interim Financial Statements, as adopted in the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410 "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information does not give a true and fair view of the financial position of the company as at June 30, 2025 and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the six months period then ended in accordance with the International Accounting Standard IAS 34 on Interim Financial Statements as adopted in the European Union.
