Novonesis today announces its ‘GROW’ strategy and long-term targets for the strategy period until 2030 focusing on an acceleration of the core business and significant re-investments to secure long-term growth. By 2030, the company expects to deliver an organic sales CAGR of 6-9%, an adjusted EBITDA margin of ~39% and an adjusted ROIC excl. goodwill of ~16%.

Novonesis is well positioned to continue to drive strong performance in biosolutions. The company is present across multiple end-markets with strong capabilities to deliver value-adding solutions for tailored customer needs. Novonesis’ distinct position is built on three capabilities: deep customer understanding, unparalleled innovation and an exceptional ability to scale and produce robust and affordable biosolutions. In a world with a growing population, increasing energy needs, evolving nutritional and health trends, as well as climate risks, the company sees a strong and increasing demand for biosolutions.

Ester Baiget, President & CEO:

Novonesis’ proven growth matrix is a well-balanced combination of end-market volume growth, pricing, upselling and adjacencies, as well as penetration. The company continues to explore areas with long-term growth opportunities targeting applications and markets with significant untapped potential. The new explorative areas in focus are Biopharma Processing Aids, Future Fuels and Chemicals, and Functional Food Proteins.

The 2030 strategy will be presented and commented on in combination with the extended H1 2025 conference call on August 21 at 09.00 CET. Slides will be shared ahead of the conference call.
