The United States was approximately 28% of sales in 2025, no other country was more than 10%, and no customer was 10% or more. In 2025 the business ran five segments, Taste, Food Ingredients, Health and Biosciences, Scent, and Pharma Solutions until that business was sold in May 2025; the former Nourish segment was split into Taste and Food Ingredients on 1 January 2025.

Taste and Food Ingredients

Taste develops and produces flavour compounds and natural taste solutions used in savoury products such as soups, sauces, meat, fish, poultry and snacks, in beverages from juice drinks to spirits, in sweets including bakery, candy, cereal and chewing gum, and in dairy products, along with value-added spices and seasoning for meat, food service, convenience, alternative protein and culinary uses. Food Ingredients holds natural, artificial and plant-based specialty ingredients that give food and beverages their functional properties, plus specialty soy and pea protein with value-added formulations, emulsifiers and sweeteners. It also covers natural antioxidants and anti-microbials used to preserve beverages, cosmetics, healthcare products, pet food and feed additives and extend their shelf life, savoury solutions such as spices, marinades and mixtures, and inclusion products combining flavourings with fruit, vegetables and other natural ingredients.

Health and Biosciences

The segment produces enzymes, food cultures, probiotics and specialty ingredients for food and non-food use, and is made up of five businesses. Health supplies ingredients for dietary supplements, functional food and beverage, specialised nutrition and pharma. Food Biosciences supplies products for fresh dairy, cheese, bakery and brewing that extend shelf life and affect stability, taste and texture, with enzyme solutions that allow low sugar, high fibre and lactose-free dairy. Home and Personal Care makes enzymes for laundry and dishwashing detergents, cleaning and textiles, plus patented enzymatic polymers that are renewable and biodegradable alternatives to functional ingredients in home cleaning and beauty products. Animal Nutrition makes feed enzymes and animal health products for livestock farming, and Grain Processing makes yeasts and enzymes for biofuel production and carbohydrate processing.

Scent

The segment creates fragrance compounds and fragrance ingredients used in perfumes and in household and personal care products. Fragrance Compounds are proprietary combinations of several ingredients, organised into fine fragrances, covering perfumes and colognes from luxury to mass market, and consumer fragrances, covering fabric care such as laundry detergents and softeners, home care such as household cleaners, dishwashing detergents and air fresheners, and body care such as personal wash, hair care and toiletries. Fragrance Ingredients are natural and synthetic, active and functional ingredients used internally and also sold to third parties, including competitors, with spare manufacturing capacity used to make ingredients for outside sale while securing supply for the company's own perfumers.

What was sold

The former Pharma Solutions segment produced cellulosics and seaweed-based pharmaceutical excipients used in prescription and over-the-counter medicines and dietary supplements. That disposal group, including certain adjacent businesses, was sold on 1 May 2025, and the nitrocellulose business inside the segment was sold on 9 May 2025.

Materials, plants and people

At 31 December 2025 the company sourced approximately 20,000 different raw materials from a broad network of domestic and international suppliers and distributors. Natural ingredients come from flowers, fruits and other botanicals and from plant, animal and marine products and commodity crops such as wheat, corn and soy, bought direct from farms or in processed form, and combined with chemicals they also serve as raw materials for synthetic ingredients. Supply is managed through fixed or formula-based contracts, hedging materials linked to liquid commodities, strategic supplier relationships, indexed pricing, reduced formulation complexity, make-versus-buy decisions and local sourcing. There were approximately 170 manufacturing facilities, creative centres and application laboratories in approximately 30 countries, with major manufacturing sites in the United States, the Netherlands, Spain, Germany, Indonesia, Turkey, Brazil, Mexico, Slovenia, China, India, Ireland, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Belgium and Singapore. The company employed approximately 21,500 people worldwide at the same date, approximately 5,500 of them in the United States.

Each quarter as filed, linked to its filing.
Read more* The fourth quarter is the full year less the first three quarters, because the company files the year and not the quarter on its own. A fourth quarter's EPS, and its diluted share count where shown, are from the company's results press release for that quarter, checked against the company's filed figures or a second data source. A quarter marked † is shown as the company last restated it in a later filing, so it compares with the quarters around it on one basis; rest on a figure for the one first filed. EPS is as filed. Money is in $ million as the company files it, or in $ billion by the switch above the tables; per share figures and the share count are as they are. Free cash flow is operating cash flow less capital expenditure; the effective tax rate is income tax over pre-tax income; margins are the line over revenue. Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and operating income is revenue less the company's own total costs, where the statement does not print those lines. Cash flow lines filed year to date are the difference between two filings. Shares outstanding are at the period end where the balance sheet tags them, otherwise the count on the filing's cover page. A derived fourth-quarter EPS is left blank when a split in the year makes the arithmetic meaningless.

Read moreBoth totals are the company's own. Other liabilities is the filed total less the rows above it: payables, deferred revenue, taxes, borrowings the rows above do not carry and the rest; other assets is the same on the other side.

Debt is the company's own stated total where it files one, otherwise its long-term debt with the current maturities, never parts added together. A row is left blank in a year where the lines shown overlap and the remainder would fall below nil.
