Why is DSM Firmenich stock sliding today?

DSM Firmenich AG stock fell 6.6% to CHF 90.5 after its Q3 2026 update. Sales rose 5% to €2.37 billion, and the full-year sales growth forecast was raised to 5%. However, the adjusted EBITDA margin slipped to 20.4% due to foreign exchange effects. The Discontinued Operations segment saw a 9% sales decline. The company's share repurchase program ended in October, removing a support factor. Swiss equities also faced pressure due to rising inflation.
