Revenue at 30 September 2023 Activity 9-month revenue: €573.9 million, up 2.7% at CER1 Third-quarter sales remained very strong in Asia (+15.2% at CER), were stable in EMEA (+0.6%) and showed a smaller decline in the Americas (-5.2%)Expecting double-digit activity growth in the fourth quarter of 2023 thanks to the surge in sales of EluciremTM and strong momentum in Interventional Imaging Financial targets confirmed 2023 revenue up by more than 5% like-for-like and at CERRestated EBITDA margin2 of around 11% in 2023, before returning in 2024 to a higher level than in 2021 (14.4%) Villepinte, 19 October 2023: Guerbet (FR0000032526 GBT), a global specialist in contrast agents and solutions for medical imaging, is publishing its revenue for the period to 30 September 2023. Over the first nine months of the year, Group sales came to €573.9 million, up 0.8% on the same period in 2022. Business activity reflected a negative forex effect of €10.4 million. At CER1, revenue for the first nine months grew by 2.7%. Sales in the third quarter of 2023 came to €195.2 million, up 2.3% at CER, after rising by 2.8% during the first half of the financial year. Taking into account the expected ramp-up in EluciremTM sales in the fourth quarter, this scenario supports Guerbet’s financial targets for the full year and for next year.

In the EMEA region, the Group saw an increase in 9-month sales of 5.4% at current exchange rates and 5.5% at CER, driven by the increase in volumes and positive price effects. In the third quarter, revenue for the region came to €79.9 million, with moderate growth (+0.6% at CER) linked to a particularly high comparison base. In the Americas, sales for the period to end-September 2023 fell by 11.8% at current exchange rates and by 11.5% at CER. As expected, the decline in revenue slowed significantly in the third quarter to -5.2% at CER. After the complete normalisation of production rates during the first half of 2023, the Raleigh (North Carolina) site was again able to increase its production capacity with a view to increasing its sales – of EluciremTM in particular – in the fourth quarter. In Asia, sales growth over the 9-month period was +9.2%, incorporating a particularly substantial negative forex effect of -€9.8m (depreciation of Chinese, Japanese and Korean currencies) during the period; at CER, growth was +16.1%, a remarkable performance driven mainly by China (+39%), which continued to benefit from the introduction of direct distribution in 2022. In the third quarter alone, sales in Asia were up 15.2% at CER.

Revenue from Diagnostic Imaging at CER was up 2.6% at 30 September 2023 (+0.8% at current exchange rates) and up 1.2% in the third quarter. Note that the X-ray division now includes the revenue of Intrasense, consolidated since 1 January 2023. In MRI, sales for the 9-month period were down 1.6% at CER due to a contraction in activity in the third quarter of 2023. This reflects: A negative price effect linked to the price pressure exerted by the generic product for Dotarem® on the US market.Sales of EluciremTM which slowed in the third quarter due to longer-than-expected approval times (formulary process) in US hospitals, with a strong catch-up effect expected from the fourth quarter of 2023. In the X-ray division, revenue rose by 5.2% over the first nine months at CER, marked by a sharp acceleration in growth in the third quarter (+8.7%), again due to a sharp increase in sales of Xenetix®. In Interventional Imaging, sales at CER were up 3.0% compared with the first nine months of 2022. After a negative comparison base effect in the Asia-Pacific region in the first half of 2023, revenue for the third quarter rose by a sharp 10.3%, driven by strong sales of Lipiodol®. Financial targets for 2023 and 2024 confirmed Activity continues to be underpinned by robust volumes and broadly positive price effects (with the exception of Dotarem®), reflecting the Group’s ability to pass on cost increases to its customers (iodine in particular). In the fourth quarter of 2023, Guerbet expects double-digit sales growth driven by a very strong rebound in activity in the United States, linked in particular to the ramp-up of EluciremTM sales once the current approval processes are completed, and to continued favourable trends in Interventional Imaging. For the full year, Guerbet confirms that it is targeting revenue growth of more than 5% like-for-like and at CER. It still expects a restated EBITDA2 to revenue ratio of around 11% in 2023, before returning in 2024 to a higher level than in 2021 (14.4%). As a reminder, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has issued a favourable opinion on the granting of marketing authorisation for Elucirem™ in the European Union for use in adults and children aged two and older for contrast-enhanced MRI. The European Commission is expected to make its decision by the end of 2023.
