Paul Chaplin, President & CEO of Bavarian Nordic, said: “We are pleased to expand our commitment to supporting governments in their efforts to protect populations against mpox and smallpox. MVA-BN remains a critical tool for both outbreak response and long-term stockpiling. Ensuring reliable access to medical countermeasures requires sustained investment in preparedness, strategic stockpiles and manufacturing capabilities that can be mobilized when needed. Through continued regulatory expansion and manufacturing scale-up, Bavarian Nordic is helping to strengthen public health resilience and readiness for future health threats.”
While deliveries under this contract will start in 2026, the majority of the revenue will be recognized in 2027. Bavarian Nordic has now secured contracts in the Public Preparedness business in 2026 of approximately DKK 2,200 million, an increase of approximately DKK 200 million compared to the level previously announced. For the full year 2026, the Company still anticipates revenue from Public Preparedness to reach DKK 2,300 – 2,500 million. The overall guidance for 2026 remains unchanged at revenue of DKK 5,500 – 5,700 million and an EBITDA margin of approximately 28%.
About the smallpox/mpox vaccine
