Lonza Group Ltd ( (CH:LONN) ) has provided an update.
Lonza has published its 2025 Annual and Sustainability Reports and issued the invitation to its 2026 Annual General Meeting, to be held on 8 May in Basel. The reports detail strategic direction, business structure, financial performance, governance and sustainability progress, with the sustainability report aligned to Global Reporting Initiative standards.
The company is proposing a 25% dividend increase to CHF 5.00 per share, half of which would be paid from capital contribution reserves and thus exempt from Swiss withholding tax. Board changes include the proposed re-election of Chair Jean-Marc Huët, the departure of three directors, and the nomination of three new members bringing deep expertise in healthcare, life sciences, automation, AI and biopharma leadership.
These governance and capital-allocation measures signal Lonza’s confidence in its earnings power and long-term strategy after a solid 2025 performance. The addition of directors with strong healthcare, Asian market, automation and human-capital credentials may strengthen Lonza’s industry positioning and support future growth in complex biologics manufacturing and related services.
