Roche's investor calendar lists the Berenberg Pharma CFO Series for Monday, November 2, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. CET in Basel. The virtual event is the next scheduled investor appointment after the company's third-quarter sales update.
Roche reported group sales of CHF 46.493 billion for the first nine months of 2026, compared with CHF 45.862 billion a year earlier. At constant exchange rates, sales increased 6%, while third-quarter sales rose 7%. The figures come from Roche's release published through Roche's nine-month sales announcement.
Sales Growth Meets Pipeline Execution
The Pharmaceuticals Division generated CHF 36.212 billion in sales through September, up 7% at constant exchange rates. Roche identified continued demand for medicines including Ocrevus, Hemlibra, Vabysmo, Phesgo and Xolair as key drivers.
Diagnostics sales reached CHF 10.281 billion and increased 4% at constant exchange rates, but were unchanged in Swiss francs. Roche maintained its 2026 outlook for mid-single-digit group sales growth and high-single-digit core earnings-per-share growth at constant exchange rates, while also expecting another dividend increase in Swiss francs.
The investor event gives shareholders an opportunity to assess how management views the late-stage pipeline and the balance between pharmaceutical growth and patent-related pressure. Roche has highlighted regulatory progress for several programs, including fenebrutinib and giredestrant, but upcoming approvals and commercial execution remain important to the investment case.
