topline outlook for high-single-digit organic revenue growth (vs 8.8% consensus) is

unchanged.

The drivers of the margin upgrade include 1) China, with improving profitability

supported by the Shanghai campus ramp-up, lower local production costs and a

more favourable pricing backdrop following the delayed rollout of VBP 2.0, alongside

gradually normalising demand, 2) Stronger-than-expected profitability across all

segments, driven by gross margin expansion, favourable mix and disciplined

execution, with orthodontics transformation initiatives and improving IOS

profitability providing additional support, 3) Faster-than-expected operational

efficiency gains (supply chain, manufacturing productivity and cost control),

enhancing operating leverage. Potential tariff refunds (up to CHF 17m) provide

additional, albeit non-core, upside.
