Dermapharm Holding SE's revenue exceeds » Consolidated revenue up 8.7 % year on year to EUR 1,025 million » Adjusted consolidated EBITDA increases by 2.5 % to EUR 360 million » Adjusted consolidated EBITDA margin: 35.1% » Broad product portfolio drives success » Revenue expected to continue growing in 2023 Grünwald, 14 March 2023 – Dermapharm Holding SE ("Dermapharm"), a rapidly growing manufacturer of branded pharmaceuticals, today published its unaudited preliminary consolidated figures (IFRS) for financial year 2022. Despite the difficult macroeconomic environment, Dermapharm succeeded in maintaining its growth trajectory. The resilient product portfolio and adept marketing efforts coupled with highly-efficient production processes in Germany and Europe helped to boost the Group's performance in 2022. Consolidated revenue increased by 8.7% to EUR 1,025 million in financial year 2022 (previous year: EUR 943 million). Adjusted for non-recurring items, consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased by 2.5% year on year to EUR 360 million, with the adjusted EBITDA margin at 35.1% (previous year: EUR 351 million and margin of 37.2%). Unadjusted consolidated EBITDA declined by 6.5% to EUR 331 million in the reporting period, and the EBITDA margin amounted to 32.3% (previous year: EUR 354 million and margin of 37.6%). As in previous years, significant adjustments related to expenses for non-recurring costs in connection with acquisitions and share purchases, restructuring costs, impairment losses and effects relating to purchase price allocation. "In light of the highly complex macroeconomic challenges in 2022, such as the war in Ukraine, the energy crisis and rising inflation, we closed the 2022 financial year on a high note with an EBITDA margin of well over 30%. This is proof that our business model works even when times are tough and also convincingly demonstrates how resilient we have become. Despite obvious cost pressure and strained supply chains, we can look back and say that 2022 was successful overall," said Dr Hans-Georg Feldmeier, Chairman of the Board of Management of Dermapharm Holding SE. Growth in financial year 2022 was driven by Dermapharm's broadly diversified product portfolio. Compounds such as Dekristol®, Ampho-Moronal®, Myditin®, Tromcardin® and Keltican® performed particularly well in financial year 2022. Also of note is the significantly improved performance of our subsidiaries abroad. In addition, the newly acquired companies in the "Herbal extracts" segment likewise contributed to revenue and earnings growth. The COVID-19 pandemic and the associated protective measures significantly impacted the economy and society over the past few years. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), the global COVID-19 situation has now improved significantly. In Europe, the pandemic is now very likely becoming endemic, but will nevertheless need to be monitored closely. "In connection with the pandemic, vaccine production also led to non-recurring effects in 2022 that will not continue to the same extent. However, by acquiring Arkopharma, we succeeded in transferring this positive non-recurring effect into sustainable revenue and earnings growth while at the same time significantly expanding our portfolio of food supplements as well as our market presence in western and southern Europe," said Dr Feldmeier. The Board of Management expects consolidated revenue to amount to between EUR 1,080 and 1,110 million in financial year 2023. Adjusted consolidated EBITDA is forecast at between EUR 300 and 310 million. Dermapharm will publish its final audited figures for financial year 2022 along with its complete 2022 annual report on 28 March 2023.
