1.2 Basis of preparation

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year 2024.

These interim financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and any public announcements made by the group during the interim reporting period.

2 Significant events and transactions during the reporting period

2 Significant events and transactions during the reporting period

The financial position and performance of the group were impacted by the following events and transactions during the reporting period:

  • On April 23, 2025, the Annual General Meeting approved an ordinary dividend of CHF 0.50 per share to be paid out of reserves (2024: CHF 0.50 per share). The dividend was paid to shareholders on April 29, 2025. The total amount of the dividend to shareholders of medmix Ltd is CHF 20.4 million (half-year 2024: CHF 20.4 million), thereof paid dividends of CHF 7.8 million (half-year 2024: CHF 7.8 million), outstanding withholding taxes of CHF 7.1 million (half-year 2024: CHF 7.1 million) and undistributed dividends of CHF 5.5 million (half-year 2024: CHF 5.5 million).

Information about reportable segments

Operating segments are determined based on the reports reviewed by the Board of Directors (BoD, chief operating decision maker) that are used to measure performance, make strategic decisions and allocate resources to the segments. The business is managed based on segments, and the reportable segments have been identified as disclosed below. The BoD assesses the performance of the two segments based on the segments’ revenue, gross profit and gross profit margin.

The BoD assesses the performance of the segments using alternative performance measures (APMs), which are derived from the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

  • Segment cost of goods sold is the part of cost of goods sold that is assigned to a segment. The calculation excludes the part of cost of goods sold that is shared between segments or cannot reasonably be allocated to any segment. Segment cost of goods sold is used to monitor the costs of a segment.
  • Segment gross profit is the part of gross profit that is assigned to a segment. The calculation excludes the part of cost of goods sold that is shared between segments or cannot reasonably be allocated to any segment. Segment gross profit is used to monitor the gross profit of a segment.
  • Segment gross profit margin is the part of the gross profit margin that is assigned to a segment. Segment gross profit margin is used to monitor the margin of a segment.

The APMs are prepared in addition to IFRS Accounting Standards to assist in comparability of information across periods and segments.

Revenue from external customers reported to the BoD is measured in a manner consistent with that in the income statement. There is no significant revenue between the segments. No individual customer represents a significant portion of the group’s revenue

4 Financial instruments

4 Financial instruments

The following tables present the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy. For financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value in the balance sheet, fair value information is not provided if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value.

Fair values are categorized into three different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. Such instruments are included in level 1.

The fair values included in level 2 are based on valuation techniques using observable market input data. This may include discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models or reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, while always making maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs. The fair values of forward contracts are measured based on broker quotes for foreign exchange rates and interest rates.

Fair values measured using unobservable inputs are categorized within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. This applies particularly to contingent considerations in business combinations and borrowings.

Total interest income / (expenses), net, decreased from CHF -5.6 million in the first half of 2024 to CHF -4.8 million in 2025, due to lower interest rates on borrowings.

Total other financial income / (expenses), net, amounted to CHF -2.4 million in 2025, compared with CHF -0.7 million in the first half of 2024, mostly driven by net currency exchange losses.

7 Income taxes

7 Income taxes

Income tax expenses comprise current and deferred taxes. Income tax expenses are recognized based on the estimated effective income tax rate for the full financial year. The effective income tax rate used for the reporting period is 19.0%, compared with 15.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

As part of the OECD BEPS 2.0 project, Switzerland, along with some 140 other countries, has made a commitment to implement the OECD global minimum tax (also referred to as Pillar Two legislation). In certain jurisdictions in which the group operates, Pillar Two legislation was enacted from January 1, 2024. The rules apply to multinational groups with a total consolidated revenue of EUR 750 million or more in at least two of the four preceding years. Based on this, the legislation does not apply to the group as the group’s consolidated revenue is below this threshold. Therefore, the group is not expecting any exposure to Pillar Two top-up taxes in the foreseeable future. However, medmix is monitoring the situation very closely.

8 Equity

8 Equity

Share capital

The share capital amounts to CHF 412’623.70, made up of 41’262’370 shares with dividend entitlement and a par value of CHF 0.01. All shares are fully paid in and registered.

Retained earnings

The retained earnings include prior years’ undistributed income of consolidated companies, transactions recognized in relation to share-based payment plans, subsequent measurement of put option liabilities and all remeasurements for defined benefit plans.

Treasury shares

For the period ended June 30, 2025, the group acquired in total 96'000 treasury shares (half-year 2024: 27’348 shares) to cover its existing exposure from share-based payment programs for a consideration of CHF 1.0 million (half-year 2024: CHF 0.5 million). In the first half of 2025, the group allocated 124’633 shares to share plan participants (half-year 2024: 34’220 shares), previously recognized in equity at a weighted average price, amounting to a total value of CHF 3.6 million (half-year 2024: CHF 1.1 million). The total number of shares held by the group as of June 30, 2025, amounted to 442'985 treasury shares (June 30, 2024: 473’651 shares, December 31, 2024: 471’618 shares).

Cash flow hedge reserve

The hedging reserve comprises the effective portion of the cumulative net change in the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments where the hedged transaction has not yet occurred. Amounts are reclassified to profit or loss when the associated hedged transaction affects the income statement.

Currency translation reserve

The currency translation reserve comprises all foreign exchange differences arising on the translation of the financial statements of consolidated entities whose currency differs from the reporting currency of the group.

Non-controlling interests

The group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the recognized amounts of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets.

As of June 30, 2025, the non-controlling interests amounted to CHF 6.4 million (June 30, 2024: CHF 9.8 million; December 31, 2024: CHF 10.3 million). The decrease is mainly due to declared dividends in the amount of CHF 3.1 million (half-year 2024: CHF 0.0 million), which remained undistributed as of June 30, 2025.

In the second half of 2024, the group exercised its fixed-price forward and acquired an additional 10% equity interest in Guangdong Qiaoyi Plastic Co. Ltd. (“Qiaoyi”) for CHF 4.5 million, increasing its total ownership to 80%. Since the acquisition of the additional 10% in Qiaoyi was a fixed-price forward, it had no impact on the non-controlling interests, which remained at 20%.

Dividends

On April 23, 2025, the Annual General Meeting approved an ordinary dividend of CHF 0.50 per share to be paid out of reserves (2024: CHF 0.50 per share). The dividend was paid to shareholders on April 29, 2025. The total amount of the dividend to shareholders of medmix Ltd was CHF 20.4 million (half-year 2024: CHF 20.4 million), thereof paid dividends of CHF 7.8 million (half-year 2024: CHF 7.8 million), outstanding withholding taxes of CHF 7.1 million (half-year 2024: CHF 7.1 million) and undistributed dividends of CHF 5.5 million (half-year 2024: CHF 5.5 million). The dividend to one of the group’s shareholders, Tiwel Holding AG, was not transferred, as a result of US sanctions.

In May 2025, the group declared dividends to non-controlling interests in Qiaoyi in the amount of CHF 3.1 million (half-year 2024: CHF 0.0 million), which remained undistributed as of June 30, 2025.

In March 2025, the group declared and paid dividends to non-controlling interests in the amount of CHF 2.0 million (half-year 2024: CHF 0.0 million). Because the group holds a fixed-price call option to acquire all non-controlling interests, it recognized a 100 percent economic interest, with no allocation to non-controlling interests in equity.

The total outstanding dividend payments as of June 30, 2025, amounted to CHF 24.7 million (December 31, 2024: CHF 16.3 million) and are reflected in the balance sheet position “Other current and accrued liabilities” (note 10).

Subsequent measurement of put option liabilities

In 2025, the changes in subsequent measurement of put option liabilities in equity amounted to CHF 1.4 million (half-year 2024: CHF –3.4 million) , thereof CHF –0.3 million related to Qiaoyi (half-year 2024: CHF –3.2 million) and CHF 1.8 million from sale of investments in subsidiaries (half-year 2024: CHF –0.2 million).

Put option liability Qiaoyi

At any time after July 5, 2027, the non-controlling shareholders of Qiaoyi can exercise a put option to sell, and the group can exercise a call option to purchase, the remaining 20% equity interest held by the non-controlling shareholders for a formula-based purchase price. The group recognized a redemption liability, recorded in other non-current liabilities, based on the discounted put exercise price, which is accreted over the contract period.

As of June 30, 2025, the put option liability, recorded in other non-current liabilities, amounted to CHF 13.6 million (December 31, 2024: CHF 14.8 million), with the changes in the put exercise price and interest accretion over the contract period recognized in equity.

Put option liability from sale of investments in subsidiaries

In 2023, the group sold non-controlling interests in a subsidiary while retaining control. As part of the transaction, the group was granted a call option to acquire all non-controlling interests until 31 March 2026. Simultaneously, the buyers were granted a put option, exercisable at any time between 31 March 2025 and 31 March 2026, to sell their interests back to the group.

In March 2025, the group and the holders of non-controlling interests extended the original share purchase agreement. Under the new terms, the group obtained a call option to repurchase the non-controlling interests at a fixed price, exercisable until 31 March 2028. The buyers were also granted a corresponding put option, at the same fixed price, exercisable between 31 March 2026 and 31 March 2028.

As both options are structured at fixed prices, the group is considered to have a 100% economic interest in the subsidiary. Accordingly, no portion of profit or equity is allocated to non-controlling interests. A financial liability has been recognized, measured at the present value of the expected settlement amount under the put option.

In March 2025, the group declared and paid dividends to non-controlling interests in the amount of CHF 2.0 million (half-year 2024: CHF 0.0 million). Because the group holds a fixed-price call option to acquire all non-controlling interests, it recognized a 100 percent economic interest, with no allocation to non-controlling interests in equity.

As of June 30, 2025, the put option liability, recorded in other current liabilities (note 10), amounted to CHF 10.3 million (December 31, 2024: CHF 11.7 million), with the changes in the put exercise price and interest accretion over the contract period recognized in equity.

In 2021, the group arranged two committed syndicated credit facilities (A and B) for a total amount of CHF 400.0 million, both maturing in September 2028.

  • Facility A: syndicated term loan for an amount of CHF 250.0 million. As of June 30, 2025 and as of December 31, 2024, the facility was fully utilized.
  • Facility B: syndicated revolving credit facility for an amount of CHF 150.0 million. The credit facility can be drawn until one month before maturity and includes a further option to increase the credit facility by CHF 75.0 million (subject to lenders’ approval). As of June 30, 2025, the facility was not drawn, compared with CHF 10.0 million drawn as of December 31, 2024.

The committed syndicated credit facilities (A and B) are dependent on a financial covenant that defines the interest margin and the maximum leverage allowed for the group.

The group complied with the financial covenant as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and expects to comply with it for 12 months after the reporting date.

Net debt must not exceed three times the pro-forma EBITDA (EBITDA adjusted on a pro-forma basis for permitted acquisitions and disposals); this leverage ratio is tested on a half-yearly basis. If the group has closed one or more permitted acquisitions of more than CHF 75.0 million, the ratio must not exceed 3.75 times proforma EBITDA for the two testing dates following the acquisition.

The group did not have to change its accounting policies or make retrospective adjustments.

b) Standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not yet effective, which the group has decided not to early adopt in 2025

IFRS 18 – Presentation and disclosure in financial statements

In April 2024, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued IFRS 18, a new standard on presentation and disclosure in financial statements, which replaces IAS 1. IFRS 18 will apply for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.

The objective of the new standard is to ensure that financial statements provide relevant information that faithfully represents the group’s assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses. Key features include a defined structure for the income statement, mandatory subtotals, aggregation and disaggregation of information and disclosures related to the income statement.

The group has started a project to assess the impact that initial application will have on its consolidated financial statements. 

No other IFRS standards or interpretations not yet effective are expected to have a material impact on the group.
