Henkel confirms Q3 organic growth, says electronics lead adhesives growth
Nov 10 (Reuters) - German consumer goods and adhesives maker Henkel HNKG.DE confirmed its preliminary third-quarter organic sales growth on Tuesday, saying growth in the higher-margin adhesives division was led by its Mobility & Electronics business area.
Henkel's Adhesive Technologies business is benefiting from strong semiconductor and AI-driven electronics demand and improving trends in selected industrial markets, although the broader industrial environment remains uneven.
The Persil-maker confirmed its organic sales grew 6.5% in the third quarter
Sales in Mobility & Electronics grew 12.1% organically, driving broader adhesives growth of 7.9%
Acquisitions and divestments added 4.4% to group sales, including 6.4% at Consumer Brands and 2.7% at Adhesive Technologies
Henkel confirmed its 2026 guidance, upgraded in October, for organic sales growth of 3% to 4%
