Such a performance would also signal strong progress towards the company's mid-term outlook of approaching 25% EBITDA margin by 2028. | Achieving an EBITDA Margin of 15% or higher for H1 2026 would signal robust operational leverage and effective execution of growth strategies, particularly in the expanding GLP-1 market.

This would represent a substantial beat on the preliminary results and far surpass the company's full-year 2026 guidance of 20-25%. | Exceeding the preliminary H1 2026 revenue growth of 41.6% would signal even stronger demand for peptide-based APIs, especially in the high-growth GLP-1 market.
