Sonova Reports Strong Growth Amidst Currency Challenges

Sonova Holding AG has announced the results for the first half of its 2025/26 financial year, revealing sales of CHF 1,815.4 million, a 4.9% increase in local currencies. The growth was led by the Hearing Instruments and Audiological Care segments, although exchange-rate changes resulted in a slight decline when measured in Swiss francs.

The company’s normalized EBITA rose by 16.0% in local currencies, reaching CHF 316.1 million, despite the negative impact of currency movements. Sonova continues to expect a sales increase of 5-9% for the full financial year, alongside a normalized EBITA growth of 14-18% at constant exchange rates.

CEO Eric Bernard emphasized the company's focus on AI-driven product innovation and organizational changes aiming to strengthen customer focus. Sonova plans structural adjustments across regions to drive further growth and responsiveness in the evolving market.
