Highlight Event and Entertainment AG released its financial results for the first half of 2025, reporting consolidated sales of CHF 156.5 million, a decrease from CHF 182.9 million the previous year. The decline is attributed to production-related factors. The company posted an EBIT of CHF -31.0 million, significantly impacted by one-off special effects and extraordinary operating costs, compared to CHF -9.9 million in the previous year.

The consolidated net profit stood at CHF -35.7 million, worsening from CHF -19.2 million in 2024. The equity ratio fell to 22.4% from 26.3% at the end of 2024. Despite these figures, the company anticipates improved results in the second half, expecting sales to rise as special costs diminish.
