REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL SITUATION AND RESULTS

 

1. Results of operations

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2025 Group revenues decreased by (5.0)% to € 371.2 m compared to the same period of the previous year (6M 2024: € 390.8 m). The variance was driven by lower revenues within Discovery and Preclinical Development with (11.0)% compared to the equivalent prior year period, while revenues within Just – Evotec Biologics increased by 15.6%. Excluding fx-effects, Group revenues decreased by (5.0)% to € 372.9 m. Base business decreased by (6.9)% from € 390.7 m in 6M 2024 to € 363.6 m in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

 

The Costs of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to € 335.4 m (6M 2024: € 340.3 m) yielding a gross margin of 9.6% (6M 2024: 12.9%). The main driver of the overall decrease in the costs of revenue lies in lower labor and material costs predominantly on the Discovery and Preclinical Development side.

 

R&D expenses decreased to € 19.0 m, compared to € 29.3 m in the six months ended June 30, 2024 ((35.2)%), with a focused capital allocation to selected R&D projects.

 

SG&A expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to € 89.3 m and were thus € 2.6 m or (2.8)% lower compared to last year (6M 2024: € 91.9 m) driven by a decrease in external consultancy spend.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, other operating income amounted to € 29.6 m, compared to € 24.2 m for the comparable prior year period. The increase was driven by an insurance reimbursement related to the cyber-attack. Key drivers for the decrease of other operating expenses from € 7.9 m in the first six months 2024 to € 5.6 m in the first six months 2025 were reduced expenses related to the cyber-attack.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 Reorganization costs amounted to a reversal of € 0.6 m (6M 2024: expenses of € 68.5 m) related to the finalization of reorganization projects performed in the prior year.

 

The net income (loss) as of June 30, 2025 totalled € (75.1) m (6M 2024: € (115.6) m). The improvement compared with 6M 2024 was mainly driven by the non-recurring reorganization costs in the prior year. This was partially offset by lower revenues, higher tax expense and higher expenses for non-operating items, including fx impacts.

 

Adjusted Group EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2025 represented € (1.9) m (6M 2024: € (0.5) m) mainly driven by lower revenues, partially offset by lower Costs of revenue as well as reduced R&D and SG&A expenses.

 

2. Results in our reportable segments Discovery and Preclinical Development and Just – Evotec Biologics

 

In the Discovery and Preclinical Development segment, revenues (incl. intersegment revenues) decreased by (11.0)% to € 269.0 m (6M 2024: € 302.4 m) mainly driven by weaker than anticipated demand, as the company continues to navigate a suppressed market.

 

Costs of revenue within Discovery and Preclinical Development were at € 242.5 m in the six months ended June 30, 2025 (6M 2024: € 259.5 m), corresponding to a gross margin of 9.8% (6M 2024: 14.2%). The decrease in the gross margin was mainly driven by a lower top-line performance.

 

R&D expenses decreased to € 18.9 m (6M 2024: € 29.3 m), with a focused capital allocation approach to specific R&D projects. SG&A expenses decreased to € 73.7 m (6M 2024: € 74.9 m), primarily due to lower third party operating expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, other operating income amounted to € 27.9 m, compared to € 23.1 m for the comparable prior year period, driven by an insurance reimbursement related to the cyber-attack. Other operating expenses were € 5.1 m (6M 2024: € 7.9 m) mainly driven by lower expenses related to the cyber-attack driven ongoing IT expenses.

interim STATEMENT 6M 2025 

 

The adjusted EBITDA of the Discovery and Preclinical Development segment was € (9.3) m (6M 2024: € (3.8) m), driven by the reduced top-line performance.

 

Revenues within Just – Evotec Biologics increased to € 102.2 m (6M 2024: € 88.5 m). This growth of 15.6% was driven by increased revenues in the existing customer base.

 

Costs of revenues of € 92.9 m were incurred in the first six months 2025 with higher labor and service and supplier costs to cover the increased base business in the US and the continuous ramp-up in France, compared to € 81.0 m within the six months ended June 30, 2024. Gross margin slightly increased to 9.1% from 8.9% in the first six months 2024, driven by increased favorability in revenue mix.

 

The decrease in SG&A expenses (6M 2025: € 15.6 m vs. 6M 2024: € 17.0 m) is driven by lower IT related Group charges. Other Operating Expense remained constant year over year.

 

The adjusted EBITDA within Just – Evotec Biologics has increased to € 7.5 m (6M 2024: € 3.3 m), due primarily to the increased favorability in revenue mix.

 

3. Financing and financial position

 

Net cash used in operating activities in the first six months ended June 30, 2025 was € (5.3) m compared with € (98.6) m in the first six months 2024. This year’s figure is positively affected by a lower net loss and favorable changes in working capital.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to € (43.6) m (6M 2024: € (62.2) m). Capital expenditure decreased to € (37.6) m (6M 2024: € (75.5) m) as the expansion investments in Just – Evotec Biologics site in Toulouse have approached completion in 2025, resulting in significantly lower cash outflows. The proceeds from current investments (net) also decreased to € 9.6 m (6M 2024: € 17.1 m) and originated from the (net) sale of coupon bonds and money market funds.

 

Net cash provided by/used in financing activities was € 20.7 m in the six months ended June 30, 2025 (6M 2024: € (124.9) m) which mainly results from the draw down of loans, partially offset by the repayment of lease obligations amounting to € (19.3) m while the six months ended June 30, 2024 were affected by loan repayments of € (110.3) m.

 

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to € 267.8 m as of June 30, 2025 (December 31, 2024: € 306.4 m ).

 

Total Liquidity decreased to € 348.0 m (December 31, 2024: € 396.8 m).

4. Assets, liabilities, and stockholders’ equity

 

Assets

 

Between December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, total assets decreased by € (104.2) m to € 1,808.3 m (December 31, 2024: € 1,912.5 m).

 

Investments amounted to € 80.2 m (December 31, 2024: € 90.4 m). This decrease was due to the net sale of coupon bonds.

 

Trade and other receivables decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2025 by € (31.2) m to € 85.2 m (31 December 2024: € 116.3 m). The decrease was predominantly due to cash received from one of our key customers.

 

Current tax assets decreased from € 41.9 m as per December 31, 2024 to € 34.6 m as per June 30, 2025. The decrease mainly resulted from payments received for R&D tax credits.

 

Other current financial assets including derivatives increased to € 8.4 m (December 31, 2024: € 4.3 m) which is mainly due to an increase in the fair value of derivatives.

 

Non-current investments and other non-current financial assets amounted to € 48.3 m (December 31, 2024: € 40.0 m). This increase resulted mainly from additions to already existing investments in the amount of € 6.6 m as well as (net) fair value increases in the amount of € 2.6 m.

 

Property, plant and equipment decreased by € (41.2) m to € 782.7 m (December 31, 2024: € 823.9 m) as expected due to the lower capital expenditures required for the two Just – Evotec Biologics sites. Depreciation thus outpaced additional Capex investment, with additional FX-related impacts (see Note 8 for further details).

 

Non-current tax assets increased to € 46.3 m (December 31, 2024: € 34.4 m) mainly due to an increase in R&D tax credits in France.

 

Liabilities

 

Current financial liabilities increased to € 106.9 m (December 31, 2024: € 50.8 m), predominantly due to reclasses of loan liabilities from non-current to current.

 

Trade and other payables decreased by € (27.8) m in the six months ended June 30, 2025 to € 58.0 m (December 31, 2024: € 85.8 m), resulting from the settlement of a high amount of invoices before the end of Q2 2025.

 

Current and non-current contract liabilities increased by € 31.5 m to € 294.8 m (December 31, 2024: € 263.3 m) due to a decrease in netting with contract assets related to projects with one major customer.

 

Current and non-current provisions decreased by € (14.7) m to € 67.1 m (December 31, 2024: € 81.8 m), mainly driven by the consumption as well as reversal of bonus accruals and provisions for reorganization.

 

Stockholders’ equity

 

Total stockholders’ equity decreased by € (106.7) m to € 845.8 m (December 31, 2024: € 952.5 m).

 

Evotec’s equity ratio as of June 30, 2025 decreased to 46.8% (December 31, 2024: 49.8%).

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Corporate information

 

At Evotec, we envision drug discovery, development and manufacturing as a seamless continuum. Our ambition is to lead the way by combining comprehensive disease understanding at the molecular level with cutting-edge technologies, transforming this knowledge into precise, life-changing medicines through collaborative partnerships. We aim to reshape the future of healthcare through providing flexible access for our partners in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry to our platform across the continuum of discovery, development and manufacturing. Our services across the continuum can be clustered in four areas: Discovery Services, Development & Discovery Services, Cyprotex ADME-Tox Solutions and Just – Evotec Biologics, where the latter represents a separate reporting segment besides D&PD (Discovery & Preclinical Development, former Shared R&D).

 

Evotec SE, located in Hamburg (Essener Bogen 7, 22419 Hamburg, Germany) is registered in the Commercial Registry of Hamburg with HRB 156381.

 

The Company was founded on December 8, 1993, and is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (XETRA) since November 10, 1999, Segment Prime Standard, under the ticker “EVT“ as well as on NASDAQ, New York, USA under the trading symbol “EVO“ since November 8, 2021.

 

2. Basis of presentation

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 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 December 31, 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.

 

3. New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group

 

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 December 31, 2024.

 

The following amendments became effective as of January 1, 2025

 

-Lack of exchangeability – Amendments to IAS 21

 

The following amendments will become effective after January 1, 2026, however, may be early adopted:

 

·Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (January 1, 2026)

 

·Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Power Purchase Agreements (January 1, 2026)

 

·IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements (January 1, 2027)

 

16

 

interim STATEMENT 6M 2025 

 

The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. IFRS 18 is expected to change the presentation of the Income statement and to differentiate between earnings from operating activities, investment activities and financing activities. IFRS 18 will also add additional disclosures but will not change any accounting policies on recognition and measurement, hence it will not change reported net results. Apart from that, none of those amendments are expected to have a significant impact on the Group´s consolidated financial statements.

 

4. Significant events during the reporting period

 

In the first six months ended June 30, 2025 Evotec continued its organizational adjustments as part of the previously announced priority reset to profitable growth. This included targeted workforce reductions in specific functions and geographies, carried out in compliance with local labor laws and in close consultation with employee representatives and works councils.

 

The Supervisory Board of Evotec SE appointed Paul Hitchin as new Chief Financial Officer and member of the Management Board with effect from March 1, 2025.

 

On March 3, 2025, Evotec SE drew k€ 43,961 from the EIB 2.0 facility. Consequently, there has been an increase of gross debt and a decrease of available credit lines.

 

Effective June 30, 2025, Evotec cancelled a non-drawn Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of k€ 250,000.

 

5. Segment information

 

Evotec’s reporting segments represent the internal organization and reporting structure of the Group. Further information regarding the fields of activity of each segment can be found under Business Overview in the Combined Management Report of the annual report 2024. In Q2 2025, the Management Board made the decision to rename the segment previously known as “Shared R&D” to “Discovery and Preclinical Development” (D&PD) to better reflect Evotec’s strategic focus. Just – Evotec Biologics remains unchanged.

 

Management does not allocate assets and liabilities to segments. The assessment of the individual operating segments is based on revenues and operating income (loss). Inter segment revenues are valued with a price comparable to other third-party revenues. Corporate activities are allocated based on internally defined allocation keys, primarily based on revenue. The evaluation of each reportable segment by the management is performed based on revenues and adjusted EBITDA.

The income tax amounted to an expense of k€ (1,785) for the first six months until June 30, 2025 compared to an income tax income of k€ 15,632 for the six months ended 30 June 2024. This change is mainly driven by the fact that in 2025, no deferred taxes were recognized on current losses.

 

8. Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment amounted to k€ 782,702 as of June 30, 2025 (December 31, 2024: k€ 823,937) and included owned property, plant and equipment as well as right-of-use assets. The decrease of k€ (41,235) is mainly related to FX effects (k€ (26,446)) and depreciation (k€ (46,137)) that exceeded capital expenditures (k€ 32,214).

9. Goodwill and other intangible assets

 

Goodwill:

 

Goodwill amounted to k€ 275,207 as of June 30, 2025, versus k€ 282,854 as of as of December 31, 2024. The movement during the period was due to the impact of changes in exchange rates.

 

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 based on the fair-value less costs to sell methodology.

 

The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount for the different cash generating units are disclosed in the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

 

Based on the analysis of the business performance as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Group has not identified any impairment trigger.

 

Finite lived intangible assets:

 

The Group also reviews its finite lived intangible assets for impairment whenever triggering events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Following this review, the Group has not identified any impairment trigger.

 

10. Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which comprises forward purchase contracts, restricted shares, performance shares and share options granted to employees. As Evotec reports a net loss all share equivalents are anti-dilutive, so that diluted and non-diluted (basic) earnings per share are identical (see “Net result per share (basic)” and “Net result per share (diluted)” in the Consolidated Interim Income Statement).

 

The weighted average number of ordinary shares is calculated as follows:

 

Shares in
thousands
  30/6/2025   31/12/2024 
Issued shares 1. Jan.   177,553,456    177,185,736 
Treasury shares 1. Jan.   (167,415)   (249,915)
Effect of weighted average capital increase        
Effect of weighted average stock options exercised   175,658    359,413 
Weighted Average Number of Shares Outstanding   177,561,699    177,295,234 

 

22

 

 

interim STATEMENT 6M 2025 

 

The share capital of k€ 177,767 was divided into 177,766,541 shares. The increase in shares outstanding is related to the exercise of stock options (see Note 13).

 

11. Reorganization

 

On December 31, 2024, provisions for reorganization amounted to k€ 24,601. In the six months ended June 30, 2025 costs of k€ 12,710 were charged against the provision, related to employee termination benefits, real estate footprint optimization and other direct costs associated with the reorganization. An amount of k€ 1,459 was released.

 

The remaining balance as of June 30, 2025 amounted to k€ 11,237 and mainly related to costs for cancelled lease agreements in the UK and employee termination benefits in France as well as other direct costs associated with the reorganization.

 

12. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities and Financial Risk Management

 

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 opportunities” described in Evotec’s Annual Report 2024 on pages 41 to 58.

 

There have not been significant changes to the risk management approach or to risk management policies since December 31, 2024.

 

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities:

 

The Group classifies its fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

 

▪ Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date. This includes e.g. bonds, money market funds, shares and other short term cash investments.

 

▪ Level 2 – all significant inputs (other than quoted prices included within Level 1) are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). This includes equity investments in unlisted companies measured based on observable prices close to the balance sheet date, as well as derivative financial instruments with a hedging relationship measured based on spot and forward rates observable in the market.

 

▪ Level 3 – one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, such as third-party pricing information without adjustments, for the asset or liability. This includes equity investments in unlisted companies measured using the net asset value as a proxy for the fair value of the investment (Net-Asset-Value-Method).

 

The carrying amounts and fair values of the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost as of June 30, 2025 and as of December 31, 2024 are shown in the tables below. Financial assets measured at amortized cost approximate their carrying amounts in the statement of financial position.

interim STATEMENT 6M 2025 

 

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.

 

Apart from borrowings, the Group considers the carrying value of the financial instruments to approximate their fair value.

 

For fair value measurements classified in level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, no quantitative information on significant unobservable inputs have been used in the measurement of the fair value.

 

The following shows the development of the fair values of Level 3 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and during year 2024:

Conversion of loans to Investments in associates and Joint ventures   (800)    
Balance as of December 31, 2024   21,909     

 

Additions to level 3 investments refer to capital increases in Evotec minority investments. Minority investments for a total of k€ 1,177 have been transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy due to the presence of observable market prices.

 

Currency risk:

 

Foreign exchange exposure also arises because of inter-company loans and deposits. When the lending company enters such arrangements, the financing is generally provided in the functional currency of the subsidiary entity. When such loans would 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.

 

13. Share based payments

 

In March 2025, 1,322,203 share performance awards were granted. Thereof, 445,702 to members of the Management board and the remaining 876,501 to other key employees. The exercise price of the options was € 1.00 for both Management Board members and other key employees. The "Fair Market Value” (FMV) presenting the present value of the respective option rights at Grant Date is calculated as of January 1 of the respective year. The fair value of share performance Awards on January 1, 2025 was € 9.83 and the share price on the grant date, March 28, 2025, was € 6.00.

interim STATEMENT 6M 2025 

 

The fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions:

 

Expected dividend yield   %
Expected volatility of Evotec share   87.00%
Risk-free interest rate   2.18%
Expected life of share options (years)   4 

 

In addition, a total of 1,105,037 Restricted Share Units were granted in the six months ended June 30, 2025. These Restricted Share Units were only given to key employees. The fair value of the Restricted Share Units on January 1, 2025 was $ 4.71 and the share price on the grant date, March 28, 2025, was $ 3.34.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Group has recognised k€ 3,246 of share-based compensation expense in the statement of profit or loss (June 30, 2024: k€ 713).

 

During the first half of 2025, 210,068 shares were issued through the exercise of Share Performance Awards and 3,017 shares were issued through the exercise of Restricted Share Awards, which increased stockholder’s equity. In addition, 70,754 shares were issued through the exercise of Restricted Share Units, which were settled via treasury shares.

 

14. Related party transactions

 

Evotec’s related parties include associated companies as well as the members of the Supervisory Board and the key management personnel of the Group. Except for the transactions described in Evotec’s Annual Report 2024 Note (19) on page 113, no other material transactions with related parties were entered into in the first six months 2025.

 

15. Subsequent events

 

On July 14, 2025, Evotec was made aware of an arbitral court decision requiring Evotec to make retroactive lease payments in the low seven-figure range for a not yet transferred lease asset. Evotec has set up the corresponding provision per June 30, 2025. The initial recognition of the Right-of-Use asset and the corresponding lease liability is expected to take place in the course of the third quarter.

 

On July  21, 2025, Evotec issued an updated guidance on revenue for FY2025. The Group expects revenue to be in the range of € 760 m to € 800 m (previously € 840 m to € 880 m (2024: € 797.0 m)). R&D (€ 40 – 50 m (2024: € 50.8 m)) and adjusted EBITDA (€ 30 – 50 m (2024: € 22.6 m)) related guidance elements remain unaffected.

 

On July 30, 2025, Evotec announced the signing of a non-binding term sheet for the sale of Just – Evotec Biologics EU SAS to Sandoz AG. Closing of the planned transaction remains subject to completion of the relevant information and consultation processes with employees and their representatives, final contractual agreements and to meeting regulatory requirements.
