1.b. Last Insights on AVTX

Avantium's recent performance was negatively impacted by a 25% decline in revenue to €6.69m in the first half of 2025, compared to the same period last year. The company's net loss narrowed to €1.08 per share from €1.90 in 1H2024, indicating some progress in cost management. However, the significant revenue drop likely raised concerns about the company's growth prospects. Additionally, no recent announcements on share buybacks, new product launches, or acquisitions were made, suggesting a lack of positive catalysts.
