Rating:77Outperform

▲(32.36% Upside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:05/21/26
The score is driven primarily by solid financial performance (strong profitability and operating cash flow, with moderate leverage) tempered by persistently negative free cash flow and a recent revenue decline. Valuation is supportive due to a low P/E, and the earnings call adds confidence via upbeat guidance and strong commercial momentum, while technicals show a strong uptrend but appear extended (high RSI/Stochastics).
Positive Factors
Robust profitability and operating cash flow
Sustained high operating cash flow and industry‑leading EBIT margins demonstrate durable earnings quality. This cash generation funds capex, R&D and deleveraging, supports customer co‑financing and strategic buybacks, and underpins the company’s ability to invest in long‑term capacity and innovation.
Negative Factors
Persistent negative free cash flow
Ongoing negative free cash flow reflects heavy investment and working‑capital absorption that can strain liquidity if operating cash conversion weakens. Over time this elevates funding and execution risk, potentially forcing higher external financing or delaying shareholder returns.

Ypsomed Holding AG Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:May 20, 2026
(Q4-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Nov 11, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call emphasized strong financial performance, record new project wins, accelerated service capabilities (time‑to‑clinic), and substantial strategic investments (new recyclable platforms and factory capacity). Delivery Systems achieved robust 20% revenue growth and a 33% EBIT margin, free cash generation was strong, and the balance sheet remains healthy (ROCE ~20%, net debt/EBITDA ~0.8). Management acknowledged some one‑off impairments, phased‑out contract manufacturing (modest near‑term revenue reduction), and ramp‑up/stranded costs tied to large capital projects, plus limited tariff and regional competition risks. Overall, positive operational momentum and a clear midterm outlook (CHF 0.9–1.1bn sales and CHF 280–340m EBIT by end of decade) outweigh the manageable near‑term challenges.Positive Updates
Strong Top-Line and Delivery Systems Growth
Group sales of CHF 731 million with Delivery Systems (core business) at CHF 601 million (>80% of group). Delivery Systems grew 20% year-over-year (from CHF 501m to CHF 601m).
Negative Updates

Company Guidance
The company guided to 12–15% sales growth next year in its core Delivery Systems (starting from a CHF 560m baseline, implying a midpoint ≈CHF 635m) and an EBIT range of CHF 210–230m (maintaining an EBIT margin above 33%); FY25/26 actuals were CHF 731m group sales (CHF 601m delivery systems, up 20% from CHF 501m), EBIT CHF 196m (33% margin), project revenue CHF 86m, operating cash flow >CHF 300m, and net debt/EBITDA ≈0.8 with equity >55%. Management reiterated the mid‑term ambition of CHF 0.9–1.1bn Delivery Systems sales and CHF 280–340m EBIT (≥30% EBIT margin) by end of the decade, ROCE around 20%, and a reduced CapEx plan of roughly CHF 1.3bn (vs. the prior CHF 1.5bn) through to year‑end 2030 with ~30% customer co‑financing; other notable metrics cited: 80 products launched +180 in pipeline (≈260 total) with a ~70% hit rate, record 44 deals in the year (≈50% biosimilars, 15 incretins), Clear‑to‑Clinic time cut from 18 to 6 months, and expected YpsoFit savings of low double‑digit millions over 3–5 years.Ypsomed Holding AG Financial Statement Overview
