Bavarian Nordic reported strong first-half execution, with Q2 revenue up 23% year over year, Travel Health revenue up 45%, and upgraded 2026 guidance to approximately DKK 5.7 billion of revenue and a 30% EBITDA margin. (Bavarian Nordic)
Government demand is providing improved forward visibility: Bavarian Nordic secured an additional smallpox/mpox contract worth more than DKK 700 million, with most revenue expected in 2027, bringing secured 2026 Public Preparedness contracts to approximately DKK 2.2 billion. (Bavarian Nordic)
The European Commission expanded MVA-BN’s authorization to children aged 2 to under 12, enlarging the addressable population for Bavarian Nordic’s mpox/smallpox vaccine and strengthening its public-health preparedness franchise. (Bavarian Nordic)
Public-preparedness revenue remains lumpy: Q1 2026 total revenue fell 21% year over year, while JYNNEOS/IMVANEX/IMVAMUNE revenue dropped 53% and management said 2026 is not expected to benefit materially from mpox outbreaks. (Bavarian Nordic)
CEO Paul Chaplin is due to leave after leading Bavarian Nordic since 2014, creating leadership-transition risk during the company’s strategic shift toward travel-health growth and less outbreak-driven revenue. (Bloomberg)
The chikungunya growth thesis still depends on regulatory and commercial execution: the Brazilian marketing application was only submitted in July 2026, so approval, launch timing and meaningful revenue contribution remain uncertain. (Bavarian Nordic)
