The combination of a 2.37 percent daily gain and a close only 2.48 percent below the 52-week high puts the immediate market signal in the price rather than in a new earnings forecast. Market capitalization stood at EUR 23,927,166,180 as of September 21, 2026.
Recent sales provide operating scale
Historical fiscal-year context reported on September 22, 2026, puts DSM-Firmenich total Group sales at approximately EUR 12.52 billion in fiscal year 2025. Continuing operations generated approximately EUR 9.03 billion, while adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations reached approximately EUR 1.77 billion, according to Market Growth Reports.
The reported comparison between EUR 12.52 billion in Group sales and EUR 9.03 billion from continuing operations shows the importance of separating the wider Group figure from the continuing business when assessing operating performance. These fiscal-year 2025 figures are historical context, while the current market reference remains the September 21 closing price.

DSM-Firmenich stock closed at EUR 94.34 on Euronext on September 21, 2026, after a 2.37 percent daily increase. The quote was below the EUR 96.74 52-week high and above the EUR 55.22 low.
