Symrise reported organic sales growth of 4.5% in the second quarter, a sharp turnaround from the 0.4% decline in the first quarter. The result comfortably beat consensus expectations of 3% organic growth, while EBITDA margin came in line. Shares were up around 5% in intraday trading on July 30.
Early expansion into nontraditional flavor and fragrance businesses has boosted Symrise's growth profile.
Leverage is above the company’s targeted range, which limits its ability to complete a major acquisition in the next few years.
