Business Updates and 2026 Outlook

Alongside stable business performance, Samsung Biologics made further progress on initiatives supporting its long-term growth strategy.

Following the acquisition of its Rockville manufacturing facility in Maryland, U.S. earlier this year, the company continued to integrate the site into its global manufacturing network while maintaining ongoing commercial manufacturing operations. Plant 5 remained on track for its planned ramp-up, with Process Performance Qualification (PPQ) activities gaining momentum during the quarter. Together, these milestones further expand Samsung Biologics' manufacturing network and reinforce its readiness to support future client programs.

Samsung Biologics also broadened its global presence through the opening of its Netherlands sales office in the third quarter of 2026, enhancing client proximity while strengthening regional support across Europe.

The company continued efforts to foster innovation across the biopharmaceutical ecosystem through the Life Science Fund, created jointly by Samsung Biologics, Samsung Bioepis, and Samsung C&T, and managed by Samsung Venture Investment. In May, the fund invested in Cartography Biosciences to support global collaboration in genomics-based antigen discovery and oncology drug development, and the following month, an additional investment worth KRW 200 billion was made to create the third Life Science Fund.

Samsung Biologics also plans to further advance its proprietary platform technologies to strengthen its core CDMO capabilities and expand expertise across diverse modalities, supporting changing industry needs and future innovation.

On the sustainability front, Samsung Biologics was included in the Dow Jones Best-in-Class Indices for the fifth consecutive year, a recognition of the company's ongoing commitment to responsible business practices. During the quarter, the company also published its annual ESG report, further strengthening transparency and stakeholder engagement.

Samsung Biologics remains on track to achieve the upper end of its previously announced 2026 guidance. Looking ahead, the company will continue executing its expansion strategy through ongoing investments in its manufacturing network, global operations and future capabilities. The recently announced all-cash public tender offer to acquire PolyPeptide Group, which is expected to be completed toward the end of 2026, represents another strategic step toward broadening the company's portfolio into peptide therapeutics, expanding its global network, and reinforcing operational resilience in the face of evolving market demand.
