BioNTech cuts 2026 revenue guidance as COVID sales fade

BioNTech reported Q2 2026 revenue of 105.6 million euros, down from 261 million euros a year earlier, and cut its full-year 2026 revenue guidance to 1.6-1.9 billion euros from 2.0-2.3 billion euros, citing softer global COVID-19 vaccine demand and delayed milestone revenue from an out-licensed program. The company posted a 820.8 million euro quarterly net loss but held 16.6 billion euros in cash, and its stock jumped about 23% on August 19 as investors focused on a pipeline of 14 pivotal oncology trials ahead of incoming CEO Guido Oelkers taking over from co-founder Ugur Sahin by February 2027.
