Roche confirms guidance as H1 core operating profit up 6%
Swiss drugmaker Roche reported a better-than-expected first-half operating profit on Thursday, which was up 6% due to strong sales growth from breast cancer drug Phesgo and allergy treatment Xolair. Roche reported operating profit at 12 billion Swiss francs ($15.15 billion), above forecasts for around 11.7 billion, driven by higher sales and effective cost management, it said. Roche added that the appreciation of the franc against the U.S. dollar had an adverse impact on results reported in francs compared with constant exchange rates. At currency-adjusted rates, profit was up 11%. "We are confident in our continued strong momentum and resilience of our business due to our innovative on-market portfolio and pipeline," said CEO Thomas Schinecker. He said Roche was still targeting an increase in full-year adjusted earnings per share at a high single-digit percentage. Diagnostics division sales were stable at 7 billion francs, Roche said, citing growing demand for pathology solutions and blood screening tests as offsetting the effect of China's healthcare pricing reforms. Headquartered in Basel, Switzerland, Roche owns skincare brand La Roche-Posay. The label's products include cleansers, moisturisers, and sunscreens.

Altri completes purchase of 58.7% of sustainable textiles company AeoniQ
Portuguese industrial conglomerate Altri has completed the acquisition of 58.7% of the Swiss sustainable textiles company AeoniQ, which plans to build an industrial unit in Constância. HeiQ Materials AG, Boss, and MAS Holdings remain at the business as co-investors, it was announced on Wednesday. In a statement, Altri said that the investment includes a capital increase that "will allow AeoniQ to develop its commercial-scale production capacity, reinforcing its strategic vision of diversification into high-value cellulosic applications with low environmental impact." The acquisition will enable the development of the world's first AeoniQ industrial unit, which will be built at Altri's fibre plant in Caima, Constância, and is scheduled to start up in 2026 with an initial capacity of 1,750 tons per year. According to reports earlier this month, the investment in the project amounts to 90 million euros. "In addition to the existing pilot lines in Austria, a pre-industrial unit will be launched in Portugal in early 2026 to accelerate prototypes, partnerships with brands, and capsule collections," read the statement released on Wednesday. The business announced that AeoniQ "will benefit from the vertical integration of eucalyptus fib up to the finished yarn, with the subsequent incorporation of recycled raw materials such as cotton textile waste, agricultural waste, and bacterial cellulose derived from food waste." AeoniQ is a Swiss cleantech spin-off of HeiQ Materials AG, which has developed "the world's first biodegradable cellulosic filament with a positive climate impact, designed to replace polyester and nylon." "The AeoniQ platform is set to transform the global textile industry by offering a fully circular, plastic-free alternative that replicates the performance of synthetic fibres—without their environmental impacts," said the business. Quoted in the statement, the CEO of the Altri group, José Soares de Pina, said that this acquisition, in addition to diversifying the company's operations, strengthens its presence in the sustainable textile fibres sector, "opening up new avenues of value creation for the group's different stakeholders."
