H1 2024 revenue Half-yearly activity H1 revenue: €419.2m, up 11.8% at CER1, including an acceleration in Q2 (+14.5%)This acceleration was driven by continued catch-up in the Americas, the normalisation of orders in France and MRI sales Annual targets confirmed Revenue: expected growth of over 8% like-for-like and at CERProfitability: restated EBITDA margin rate2 higher than in 2021 (14.4%) Villepinte, 25 July 2024, 5.45 pm: Guerbet (FR0000032526 GBT), a global specialist in contrast agents and solutions for medical imaging, is publishing its revenue for first-half 2024. As of June 30th, 2024, the Group’s sales totalled €419.2m, up 10.7% compared with the same period in 2023 (€378.6m). Earnings reflected a negative forex effect of €4.1m. At constant exchange rates (CER1), Guerbet’s growth over the first six months was 11.8%. This trend includes an acceleration in the second quarter (+14.5% at CER), following what was already a highly positive momentum in the first quarter (+8.8%).

The decline in the first quarter (-6.2% at CER) was fully offset in the second (+11.0% at CER) as business returned to normal in France after the disruptions linked to the March 1st 2024 reform of the supply circuit for contrast products. Guerbet revenue in the Americas caught up strongly for the third consecutive quarter, with growth of 37.4% in the second quarter at CER, reflecting record production levels at the Raleigh site in North Carolina. Total H1 revenue in the Americas came out at €127.3m, up 29.1% at CER. Asia posted growth of 6.8% over the period, at €108.5m, including a persistent negative currency effect. At CER, growth totalled 11.5% in the first half, despite a slowdown in the second quarter stemming from the contraction in sales in South Korea, where access to care has been paralysed since mid-February by an unprecedented doctor strike.

MRI sales increased 5.2% at CER in the first half of the year thanks to a solid performance in the second quarter (+13.5%). Over this period, business was driven by a strong performance by the MRI franchise, and particularly the development of EluciremTM in the United States, together with the initial sales in Germany. X-ray revenue grew 13.9% at CER in H1 2024 as part of a positive business dynamic fuelled by sales of Xenetix® and Optiray®. In Interventional Imaging, revenue at mid-year was up 20.8% at CER. This remarkable performance reflects a strong pick-up in the second quarter (+33.8% at CER) on continued positive momentum for Lipiodol®, in terms both of volumes and prices. Solid visibility for H2 - Confirmation of financial targets for 2024 Having achieved a sustained growth trajectory in the first half of the year, Guerbet enters the second half in full peace of mind. Beyond the catch-up in sales in the Americas, business continues to benefit from firmly established growth drivers firmly across the entire portfolio: in X-rays (Optiray® in particular), Interventional Imaging (strong momentum with Lipiodol®) and the MRI franchise. The latter is now reinforced by the expansion in Europe of EluciremTM, which, after receiving an extremely favourable reception in Germany in Q2 2024, will be launched in in the UK and France in the second half. Guerbet also remains confident in improving its operating profitability, driven by the adjustment of the product mix and price increases, and in its ability to bring cash generation into positive territory. Given these circumstances, the Group is confirming its forecast of sales growth of over 8% in 2024 like-for-like and at CER and expects its adjusted EBITDA margin rate to exceed that of 2021 (14.4%). Free cash flow is expected to be in positive territory for the full year.
