We have had enough of your drivel , shares are about future earnings growth .
The broker will not have access to any more information on Croda revenues than you or me.
You have a brain , use it , like I have , picking up on this weeks Croda 3Q sales
CRODA.
Beauty actives sales are difficult to track within Croda accounts on a sequential basis
The published numbers are of little use, when attempting to track potential Zenakine sales, as they compare the numbers for the period in question over the same time period , in the previous year.
However through researching a combination of croda accounts and broker presentations over the last year, I have discovered the following to points of reference.
The recent low point for beauty Actives sales was Q4 2024.
From Q1 results 2025
Year-on-year sales were down slightly in Beauty Actives against a good comparator period but were up strongly on a sequential basis compared with the final quarter of 2024.

From the Q3 conference call on Thursday, a broker is asking why the sudden jump in Active sales in Q3. ?
ANSWER:
We are we have been growing, by the way, over the last few quarters, but this is a bigger growth, and we're very pleased with that.
Well balanced across local and regional, and multinationals. Actually, it's USA-led and there's many behind the growth figures.
It's not one or two customer wins. It's many product launches with customers of all different shapes and sizes.
Primarily, virtually all of it is on innovation, some great new products coming out and some existing products with new data. So we feel very confident about the Actives business.

Q1, Q2, Q3, in 2025 , have seen Actives growth, with a step change in Q3
This I believe , is being led by a large extent by sales of Zenakine, particularly in Q3 , as shipments go out of the door, to be made into client finished products.
What I am so excited about, is another line from the CEO this week contained within the broker call ;
👀You've got a positive mix starting to come through, particularly with actives growing in consumer.👀
** STARTING TO COME THROUGH **
** We feel very confident about the Actives business **
If 12% Actives growth is *starting * to come through you can bet your bottom dollar a great deal more is to come.
A large part of that growth, will come from a mixture of new clients moving over to Zenakine and repeat orders from those clients ,who now have products about to hit the shops that will then need to be replenished.
This is a very , very, powerful mix , and that’s before a good portion of the worlds population gets hooked on its sleep, the feel good factor, and anti ageing qualities.
