flag Lindt lowers 2026 organic sales forecast to 4%-6% due to weak demand and tourism, despite strong 2025 results and a 1 billion franc buyback.

flag Swiss chocolate maker Lindt & Spruengli lowered its 2026 organic sales growth forecast to 4%-6% from 6%-8%, citing weakened consumer confidence and reduced tourism due to Middle East tensions, though it maintained its operating profit margin target. flag The company reported strong 2025 results, with 12.4% organic sales growth, a 10% rise in operating profit to 971 million Swiss francs, and a 20-basis point EBIT margin increase to 16.4%, driven by price hikes and global demand for premium products. flag Despite a recent 6.9% share drop, Lindt announced a 1 billion franc share buyback and a dividend proposal, while noting surprising 17% sales growth among U.S. users of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs, likely due to emotional indulgence.
