The Management Board of Krka, d. d. held a press conference today to present the 2024 unaudited performance estimate for the Krka Group, which the Supervisory Board discussed at their meeting yesterday. The Krka Group generated revenue of €1,909.5 million, up €103.2 million or 6% on 2023. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) exceeded half a billion euro and amounted to €518.2 million, which corresponds to 27.1% of total revenue. Publication of the 2024 unaudited financial statements of the Krka Group and Krka is scheduled for Thursday, 13 March 2025.

The President of the Management Board and Chief Executive Jože Colarič explained: ‘The Krka Group continued successful business operations also in 2024. We recorded the strongest sales since incorporation and saw sales grow in the majority of our markets, most substantially in Region East Europe. We recorded estimated operating profit (EBIT) of €425.7 million, up 7%, and estimated net profit of €353.4 million, up €40 million or 13% on 2023. We obtained marketing authorisations for 22 new products, and completed more than 1,000 marketing authorisation procedures in various countries, extending our product portfolio and increasing availability of treatment. The Krka Group investments totalled €117 million. We allocated them to improvements in production technologies, development, and quality, augmenting key elements of our vertically integrated business model.
We presented our 2025 objectives in the November public release on our business performance. We expect revenue to surpass €2 billion for the first time since incorporation. If the 2024 trends continue, we expect performance this year to be even more satisfactory. This is why we increased our 2025 profit plan to €365 million. We intend to allocate €150 million to investments in 2025, up 28% on investments realised last year.’
