EKF Diagnostics Delivers Steady H1 2025 Performance with Sector Growth Highlights

EKF Diagnostics Holdings plc (LSE:EKF) has reported first-half 2025 revenues of £25.2 million, maintaining a stable topline performance in line with management’s expectations. The company also achieved improvements in gross margins and cash flow, reflecting enhanced operational efficiency.

Notable growth was recorded in two core areas: hematology, which posted an 8% increase in revenue, and β-Hydroxybutyrate (β-HB), which grew by 12%. EKF remains optimistic about the future, particularly in its contract manufacturing and fermentation divisions, which are seen as key to the next phase of its strategic expansion.

The company continues to show solid fundamentals, supported by strong financial health and favorable technical signals. Strategic moves—including share repurchase programs and increased backing from major shareholders—have further boosted market confidence. However, management remains alert to the risk of a broader downward revenue trend, which will require ongoing monitoring.
