Bayer - Statistics & Facts
Bayer AG remains one of Europe’s leading life sciences companies, operating across pharmaceuticals, consumer health, and crop science. In 2025, the German group generated around 46 billion euros in sales while employing close to 89,000 people globally. Its business model is notably diversified, with pharmaceuticals contributing roughly two-fifths of total revenue, complemented by strong positions in agriculture and a resilient consumer health unit. Within pharma, blockbuster drugs such as Eylea continue to anchor performance. At the same time, Bayer operates in a highly competitive global pharmaceutical market valued at around 1.7 trillion U.S. dollars, where scale and innovation remain decisive factors.
