Emmi Group reported increased profitability and growth for the first half of 2026. Revenue rose by 2.2 percent to 2.32 billion Swiss francs, with organic growth reaching 3.6 percent, driven by volume. While the strong Swiss franc presented a headwind, acquisitions helped bolster results.

Regional performance showed variation: demand was high in Switzerland for fresh products and cheese, and the Global Trade division saw 10.1 percent organic growth due to exports. In the Americas, growth was led by Chile, Brazil, and Mexico, though the US market underperformed. 

Operating profit (EBIT) increased by 4.8 percent to 152.3 million Swiss francs. Looking forward, the group expressed confidence in full-year revenue, though it noted that falling Swiss milk prices could impact the second half of the year.

Recent updates indicate that the organic growth was driven entirely by volume. The Global Trade division’s growth was specifically fueled by exports of butter and skimmed milk powder, alongside rising demand for Swiss yogurt in Asia. While the group has expressed increased confidence regarding full-year revenue, profit targets remain unchanged, and the company continues to anticipate potential impacts from falling Swiss milk prices in the second half of the year. The EBIT margin also saw an improvement, rising to 6.6 percent from 6.4 percent.

Further details on the H1 2026 results confirm that net profit increased to 100.9 million Swiss francs. Growth was supported by strategic niches, including nutrition+, premium desserts, and ready-to-drink coffee. Additionally, the company noted that the integration of its international premium dessert business is largely complete. Emmi has raised its organic sales growth forecast for the full year to a range between 2% and 3%.
