Despite a modest organic sales decline of 0.4% in the first quarter, the company highlighted solid momentum in key areas such as Food & Beverage, Pet Food, and Fragrance, alongside continued progress in its ONE SYM Transformation program. The initiative is driving efficiency gains and cost savings, which Symrise plans to reinvest to support future growth.
Looking ahead, the company expects a sequential improvement in organic sales throughout 2026, underpinned by operational progress, stable demand in core markets, and strong customer engagement.
Symrise confirmed its full-year targets, including organic sales growth of 2% to 4%, an adjusted EBITDA margin of 21.5% to 22.5%, and a business free cash flow margin above 14%.
