Why is Stevanato stock plunging today?
Stevanato Group's stock fell 25.5% to $14.71 after reporting Q3 2026 revenue of €326.1M, up 8% YoY, beating estimates. However, the outlook for 2027 revenue growth was cut to low single digits due to reduced GLP-1-related volumes from a large customer, alarming investors. The company maintained its full-year 2026 revenue guidance of €1.26B to €1.28B.
