The published results, which confirm continuous double-digit business growth over the past four years, reinforce the financial stability of the JGL Group and create room for new investments, as well as for strengthening its presence in key markets. A similar positive trend was recorded by the affiliated company Adrialab d.o.o., as well as by the pharmacy business operating through Ljekarna Pablo, further confirming the resilience of the JGL Group's business system.
"The results achieved confirm the validity of our long-term strategy of therapeutic and technological focus, aimed at sustainable growth, the development of our own brands, and continuous investments in innovation, production capacities, and people.

Compared to the previous year, the number of employees in the JGL Group increased by 57, reaching 1,451 at the end of 2025.

A total of EUR 15 million was invested in development projects over the 12-month period, and more than 67 million units of finished products were manufactured — a 12 percent increase compared to the previous year.

It is also worth noting that the affiliated company Adrialab d.o.o. expanded its assortment and strengthened its market position in pharmacies by acquiring exclusive distribution rights for the Polar Ice brand. At the same time, Medicuspharma was integrated into the JGL Group, further diversifying the sales portfolio.

We will continue to invest in innovation, the development of our own brands, production capacities, and people, guided by a clear commitment to quality, integrity, and long-term value creation", concluded Usmiani Capobianco.
Prudent debt management and stable operations resulted in a reduction of the net debt-to-EBITDA ratio to 1x in 2025, further strengthening financial stability and opening new investment opportunities.
The company reports that preparations are currently underway for a new investment cycle under the name NEBO (New Era of Boundless Opportunities), which includes a greenfield investment in new production capacities and a modern working environment, which further strengthens the long-term growth strategy and strengthens competitiveness in global markets..
