Laboratorios Farmaceuticos Rovi Earnings Call Transcripts
Fiscal Year 2026
-
Q1 2026 saw flat revenues and higher gross margins, but heparin sales declined amid pricing pressure and high inventories. CDMO growth was positive but full-year guidance was revised down due to contract delays, while R&D investment remains high and long-term targets are unchanged.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
2025 saw resilient performance with revenue of EUR 756.1 million and EBITDA up 4%, driven by Specialty Pharma growth and cost efficiencies, despite a CDMO sales decline. 2026 guidance targets high single- to low double-digit revenue growth, with major investments and R&D ramp-up planned.
-
A major U.S. manufacturing site acquisition adds advanced injectable capacity, a five-year $50 million annual contract with BMS, and significant expansion potential.

Management outlined a multi-year growth strategy centered on CDMO expansion, specialty pharma, and ISM technology, targeting EUR 1.15–1.3 billion in revenue and EUR 700 million in CDMO sales by 2030.
