Skan reports 22% sales jump in first half, returns to profit
Skan Holding AG, the Swiss isolator systems manufacturer, announced a 22% surge in net sales for the first half of 2026, reaching CHF 164.48 million. The company's robust demand and improved profitability are driving the positive growth. Despite a net income of CHF 5.4 million, up from a loss in the same period last year, Skan's earnings per share rose to CHF 0.21.
Operating cash flow reached CHF 16.32 million, while EBIT and EBITDA stood at CHF 8.67 million and CHF 15.28 million, respectively. The company's Services & Consumables segment experienced significant growth, contributing to both sales and profitability gains. Acquisitions made during the reporting period also boosted sales. Skan remains confident in its 2026 guidance, projecting a high-teens percentage increase in net sales and an EBITDA margin of between 13% and 15% for the full year.
The company observes strong demand, but customers are becoming more discerning in allocating their investments.
