UBS position changed within days
UBS reported holdings representing 3.02 percent of Azelis voting rights after transactions on October 8, 2026. The position included 1,090,312 voting shares, equal to 0.45 percent, and 6,278,198 equivalent financial instruments, equal to 2.57 percent, according to Business Wire.

What does the earnings setup show?
Azelis generated EUR 2.2 billion of revenue in the first half of 2026, an increase of 3.20 percent from the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 233 million, up 2.60 percent, while the adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.70 percent, according to the Yahoo Finance transcript.
The regional mix was uneven. First-half revenue in Asia Pacific rose 8.20 percent to EUR 428 million, while EMEA revenue increased 1.70 percent to EUR 990 million. The figures show why the October results will be important for assessing whether the recovery is broadening beyond the strongest region.
