Gerresheimer stock traded at 31.55 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 17:40 CET on Thursday, November 12, 2026, 1.16 percent below the Xetra close of Wednesday, November 11, at 31.92 euros. The quote was also 1.71 percent below the 32.10-euro level in the company's latest morning report at 08:03 CET.

Revenue growth meets weaker profitability

Gerresheimer's preliminary third-quarter figures, released on October 30, showed revenue of 605 million euros, up 8 percent from the adjusted prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA reached 103 million euros, compared with 106 million euros a year earlier.

The adjusted EBITDA margin narrowed to 17.1 percent from 19.0 percent. For the first nine months, revenue stood at 1.7 billion euros, while adjusted EBITDA fell to 272 million euros from 331 million euros. The figures were reported by Gerresheimer.

Drug delivery supports the portfolio

Containment & Delivery Systems remained the main growth driver. Its third-quarter revenue increased to 313 million euros from 286 million euros in the adjusted prior-year period, while adjusted EBITDA rose to 77 million euros from 64 million euros. The division benefited from higher demand for drug delivery devices and additional production capacity.

Other operations remained more difficult. Moulded Glass generated 169 million euros of quarterly revenue, but adjusted EBITDA declined to 17 million euros from 29 million euros as inventory reductions and lower capacity utilization weighed on earnings. Gerresheimer also said the Primary Packaging Plastics sale was expected to close in the first quarter of 2027.

Fourth quarter sets next test

Management expects a stronger fourth quarter with further earnings improvement in line with its guidance. The company plans to publish its final third-quarter and nine-month figures in December 2026.
