Investor presentation summary
18 Aug, 2026Strategic priorities and business model
Focus on four strategic priorities: innovative customer offerings, efficiency gains, technology adoption, and cultivating a winning, sustainable company.
Business model centers on customer needs, with strong service offerings and innovation in Chronic and Acute Care segments.
Five global business areas: Ostomy Care, Continence Care, Voice & Respiratory Care, Wound & Tissue Repair, and Interventional Urology.
Dynamic resource allocation shifts investment from low-performing to high-potential areas, especially in the US, Kerecis, and technology.
Financial performance and guidance
Q3 2025/26 organic growth was 6%, with EBIT growth of 5% in constant currencies; EBIT margin at 26%.
9M 2025/26 organic growth was 6%, driven by Chronic Care and Interventional Urology; reported revenue up 3% due to currency headwinds.
FY 2025/26 guidance unchanged: 5-6% organic growth, EBIT growth around 5% in constant currencies, ROIC around 15%.
Free cash flow-to-sales ratio improved to 20% in 9M 2025/26, supported by positive working capital and lower net financial items.
Segment and geographic performance
Ostomy Care ex. China delivered 7% organic growth, with double-digit growth in the US; China impacted by inventory reduction and weak sentiment.

Voice & Respiratory Care up 6%, with Laryngectomy strong and Tracheostomy softer.
Wound & Tissue Repair returned to 3% growth, but Biologics declined 6% due to US reimbursement changes.
