Virbac Shares Jump 5% at Close Following Strong 2025 Results
Virbac shares closed on Tuesday, January 20th at 367 euros, up 5.01% from the previous day. This increase followed the announcement of the animal health specialist's annual 2025 results, which showed higher-than-expected organic growth. The Carros-based company also shared its outlook for 2026 and confirmed the recent acquisition of Thyronorm, a treatment for older cats.
Virbac's revenue reached 1,465 million euros in 2025, with an organic growth of 7.9% on a constant scope and exchange rate basis compared to 2024.

All geographic areas contributed to the sales progression, notably North America with 14.7% growth and Europe with 7.5%, these two regions accounting for 54.33% of total sales. The recent acquisition of Thyronorm, a treatment for feline hyperthyroidism affecting more than 10% of older cats, generates approximately 15 million euros in annual revenue. For 2026, the veterinary laboratory anticipates revenue growth between 5.5% and 7.5% at constant exchange rates and scope.
