Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC CEO Said Darwazah discusses Full Year 2025 performance and results

In this video, Hikma Pharmaceuticals CEO, Said Darwazah provides an overview of Hikma’s Full Year 2025 performance. He discusses key highlights, strategic progress, achievements, priorities, and the outlook for the year ahead. This video is part of Hikma’s full year results announcement for investors, analysts, and stakeholders.

Hello everyone. Today we announced our financial results, and I am pleased with the performance Hikma delivered in 2025, growing the business and delivering results aligned with market expectations.

We launched 84 products during the year, continued to sign new partnerships and achieved important business milestones.

And I am very proud to say that we became the largest pharmaceutical company in MENA by sales, for the first time in the history of the company.

We have three excellent businesses, all with unique strengths.

To be clear, we also had our challenges. We have begun implementing changes in the business to address these, including to the leadership, and we have been taking a close look at where we need to strengthen the Group, and in particular, our Injectables business.

Branded, our MENA based business, is truly best-in-class.

We’re a leader in the region, where we operate among the large multinationals.

We have a strong team, with local market expertise, a broad portfolio of world-class products, a wealth of manufacturing capabilities and excellent customer relationships.

Branded is a consistently strong performer and a true backbone of Hikma’s strengths.

Hikma Rx has become an increasingly important business for us in recent years as we have pursued growth in higher value areas, such as our more complex medicines and through offering CMO services. I’m excited by the rapid progress we are making in Hikma Rx. We are one of the leading US domestic producers of generic medicines and we are proud of the positive impact this business is having on the US healthcare landscape.

For Injectables, while our margins are very strong for the industry, we must continue to invest to achieve the full potential of this business. We are increasing our investment in R&D, in people, and in capex to position ourselves for higher levels of consistent profitable growth.

We are entering 2026 energised and focused on delivering on our strategy. While we have had to adjust our expectations, I am confident that guidance we are providing for this year is realistic and reflects the investments we need to make. I’m excited to show that we can deliver on this over the year ahead.

Hikma has a rich history and a track record of growth.

The work we do at Hikma is important, improving access to quality healthcare for hundreds of millions of people, and it is our talented people who make this happen. I would like to thank my Hikma colleagues for their hard work throughout 2025.

Thank you.

Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC North America and Europe Deputy CEO Khalid Nabilsi presents 2025 Full Year Results

Deputy CEO, Khalid Nabilsi presents Hikma Pharmaceuticals Full Year 2025 results, with a detailed breakdown of financial performance for each of Hikma’s three businesses and for the Group. This video forms part of Hikma’s 2025 results release and provides insights into the company’s continued growth and strategic direction.

In 2025, we delivered results in line with expectations.

Group core revenue increased 7% to over $3.3 billion, with good revenue growth in our Injectables and Branded businesses and a solid revenue performance from Hikma Rx.

Injectables delivered a strong top-line performance, with revenue growth of 7%, and a good performance across all geographies.

Core operating profit reduced, primarily impacted by geographic and product mix as we saw some competition on larger products in the US, and due to good growth in MENA, where margins are lower.

Going forward our focus will be on investing to consistently achieve higher levels of profit growth in this business and we’re excited about the opportunities that lie ahead.

Our Branded business had another excellent year, with double digit growth in both revenue and operating profit.

We are the market leader in MENA today, and our pipeline and portfolio investments, combined with our partnership model are driving profitable growth and supporting our strong margins.

Hikma Rx also had another very good year.

This business once again generated over $1bn in revenue, in line with expectations, with core operating margins ahead of expectations at over 17%.

Our more complex products, such as our inhalers and nasal sprays, are key contributors to this business, and more generally we are seeing good demand across the entire portfolio.

We have also been making good progress with the expansion of our Columbus site to support our expanding CMO business, another key growth driver.

I am pleased to say that we have announced a share buyback of up to $250 million to be executed during 2026.

This reflects our strong cash generation, robust balance sheet, and most importantly, our total confidence in Hikma’s long-term growth potential.

Our 2026 guidance reflects our focus on ensuring consistent execution and operational discipline and investing for future growth.

We've made significant strides in expanding our portfolio and strengthening our pipeline, with 50 new launches in the first half of this year.

I am pleased to share Hikma’s financial performance for the first half of 2025 which was in line with expectations, reflecting the strength and resilience of our diversified global business. Our 6% revenue growth was driven by a good performance across all segments considering the notably high comparator period. Growth in Injectables was particularly strong at 12% with 26% growth in Europe and 16% growth in MENA. Core operating profit was down again reflecting a high comparator in the first half of last year, as well as foreign exchange headwinds and product and regional mixed dynamics in the Injectables. We continue to expect strong operating profit growth in the second half.

Importantly, we’ve continued to invest for the future. R&D spend is up significantly, supporting a growing pipeline and new product approvals that will drive long-term value. We’ve also made strategic progress integrating our recent acquisition and expanding our manufacturing footprint, which positions as well for the coming years. Our balance sheet remains robust with healthy cash generation and disciplined financial management. We were delighted to be upgraded by both S&P and Fitch to BBB Stable, reinforcing our investment grade rating. We’ve refined our Eurobond and continue to grow our dividend, demonstrating our commitment to shareholder returns.

Looking ahead, we continue to expect revenue and operating profit growth for the full year driven by robust demand across our portfolio and supported by contract manufacturing and new launches. We have lowered our expectations for the full year injectables profitability, which is impacted by the stronger than expected appreciation of the Euro as well as some inflationary pressure on shipping and other expenses. Thanks to the diversity of the Group’s businesses, we remain confident in our full-year outlook. Our focus remains on delivering sustainable long-term growth through operational excellence and strategic investment.

Thank you to all our employees for the dedication and contributions that ensure we keep making progress across our three business divisions.

Today I am pleased to announce our strong 2024 financial results. We had another year of growth and made significant strategic progress across the Group. I'm proud to say that for the first time we generated over 3 billion dollars of annual revenue, and we expect growth to continue into 2025. Importantly each of our three divisions contributed to our top-line growth, demonstrating the strength of our business.

Injectables, our largest business, grew across all regions. This growth was driven by a new product launches, continued expansion into new markets, and leveraging our strong manufacturing capabilities. We also completed the Xellia acquisition which has expanded our injectable portfolio pipeline manufacturing capacity and R&D strength. The Branded business continued to deliver great results benefiting from our strong position in the MENA region. Our focus on supplying high-quality high value medicines including oncology products has driven both margin expansion and revenue growth.

Generics also had an excellent year, with double-digit core revenue growth and a solid profit margin. We have new leadership in this business and I'm extremely excited about the potential here. We're focusing on accelerating R&D, executing our new CMO relationship and expanding our operational technologies to ensure stable and consistent growth in the years ahead.

I am pleased to share we are guiding to another year of profitable growth in 2025, and we look forward to updating all of our stakeholders on our progress throughout the year. Finally, I would like to thank all Hikma employees, without their dedication, we wouldn't have been able to make our high-quality medicines accessible to those who need them the most. Their commitment is at the core of our purpose, putting better health within which, every day.

2024 was another year of growth at Hikma. The Group delivered doubled-digit core revenue growth to over 3 billion US dollars for the first time. This was driven by strong performances in all three of our businesses and we are very confident that there is much more growth in the years ahead.

Our global Injectables business delivered double-digit growth with all three geographies contributing to this performance. We completed the Xellia acquisition during the year, which added to our 2024 sales and positions us well for the future. Excluding the impact of Xellia, Injectables organic core revenue growth was an impressive 8% we continue to deliver mid-30s margin. This is an exceptionally strong level of profitability and demonstrates the importance of our broad portfolio and our efficient high-quality operations.

Our Branded business had another excellent year. We had strong revenue growth and expanded our operating margin. The improved profitability for this business over the past few years reflects the evolution of our portfolio to focus more on products for chronic diseases and oncology.

Generics generated over 1 billion US dollar of Revenue and 2024 with an excellent performance from the base portfolio and a strong top line performance from our authorised generic of sodium oxybate. This product had a much lower margin in 2024 as our royalty payments increased versus the prior year, yet we were still able to deliver an impressive 170 million US dollar of core operating profit, ahead of our original expectations.

Overall, our Group balance sheet remains robust, even with the impact of financing the Xellia acquisition, we have kept our leverage low and cash generation remains strong. We announced our 2025 guidance today and I'm pleased to say that we expect the Group to have another very good year across each of our three businesses.
