Allergy+ strategy highlights
Shareholder remuneration
The Board of Directors continuously assesses ALK’s financial resources to ensure sufficient funds for executing ALK’s strategy, including emerging business development, in-licensing, M&A, and other investment needs. At the
end of 2025, net interest-bearing debt (NIBD) was DKK -822 million, and the NIBD/EBITDA ratio was -0.4, well below the long-term target of a maximum of two. Against this background, the Board of Directors recommends to the Annual General Meeting the adoption of a new shareholder remuneration programme with the aim of distributing approximately 30% of ALK’s net profit after tax to shareholders, corresponding to dividends of DKK 355 million for the year 2025 or DKK 1.6 per share.
2026 full-year outlook
ALK expects to continue its trajectory of double-digit revenue growth and higher earnings in 2026. The EBIT margin is planned to remain in line with ALK’s long-term earnings ambitions reflecting that a portion of the operational leverage will be reinvested in strategic growth initiatives.
Growth will predominantly be volume-driven, as ALK expects to treat more patients with AIT and anaphylaxis products. The EBIT margin will expectedly be impacted by a slight decline in gross margin, as the favourable impact from especially higher tablet sales in Europe is offset by higher partner-related sales at lower margins.
Commenting on the full-year results, CEO Peter Halling said: “2025 was a landmark year for ALK. With revenue increasing by 15% based on strong commercial execution and an EBIT margin of 26%, we have proven the strength of our Allergy+ strategy. The successful roll-out of paediatric allergy tablets, positive feedback on the first neffy® launches, and good progress with both existing and new partnerships reflect our commitment to providing innovative treatments to more people with allergies across age groups and geographies. With a solid expansion of prescriber and patient bases, we are well-positioned for continued long-term profitable growth. This is why we recommend resuming dividend payments to shareholders.”
