Marcy l’Étoile (France), April 17th, 2025 – bioMérieux, a world leader in the field of in vitro diagnostics, today releases its business review for the three months ended March 31th, 2025.

  • +12.7% organic sales growth in Q1 2025, fifth consecutive quarter with double-digit organic sales growth
  • Strong momentum thanks to the four growth drivers of the GO•28 strategic plan growing +11.8% and the remarkable growth of BIOFIRE®* respiratory panels at +21% leveraging the strong respiratory season in Q1.
  • Steady adoption of SPOTFIRE®** with 1,400 new instruments installed in the quarter and a 166% sales increase at €54m in the quarter.
  • bioMérieux confirms the 2025 sales guidance for at least +7% growth at constant scope and exchange rates.
  • In a highly volatile environment, bioMérieux remains confident in achieving at least 10% CEBIT growth in 2025 versus 2024 at constant scope and exchange rates while closely monitoring the evolving tariff situation, assessing its financial impact and exploring mitigating actions.
  • The currency effect is now expected to have a negative impact of around - €35m to -€40m on the 2025 annual CEBIT versus around -€30m previously communicated.

Pierre Boulud, Chief Executive Officer, said: “With almost 13% sales growth in the first quarter of 2025, bioMérieux is starting the year strongly. In parallel, bioMérieux continued to launch innovative solutions addressing the needs of healthcare professionals and supporting  our GO•28 strategic plan growth drivers: BIOFIRE® GI-Mid panel in the US, GENE-UP® Typer for food safety and quality customers, VITEK® COMPACT PRO in Microbiology and the SpinChip acquisition to strengthen our future presence in the Point of Care market segment. Despite the highly volatile and uncertain environment, bioMérieux remains confident in its capacity to achieve the 2025 guidance of at least +7% sales growth and at least +10% CEBIT growth both at constant scope and exchange rates.
