- Strong performance across all business lines despite loss of Sanofi payments (€ 7.5 m); Just – Evotec Biologics first-time H1 contribution (€ 16.3 m)
- Gross margin decreased mainly due to lower upfront, milestone and licence contribution (€ 7.8 m compared to H1 2019: € 19.1 m)
- Adjusted Group EBITDA negatively affected by delays in milestone contributions, fade out of the Toulouse-related payment from Sanofi and less R&D tax credits in Italy; FX on the positive with approx. € 1.7 m

Growth in base revenues; Margin reflects delayed milestones in H1
Revenues & Gross margin overview

-
10% revenue growth due to strong performance in base business and Just – Evotec Biologics contribution (€ 16.3 m). FX positive with € 2.4 m.
- Lower total margin due to lower upfront, milestones and licences payments, and anticipated loss of payments from Sanofi for the Toulouse site
- Gross margins may be volatile due to the dependency of milestones – Evotec expects most H1 milestones only delayed but not lost
