Bavarian Nordic A/S  announced a new order valued at USD 22.5 million from the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) for the Company’s mpox and smallpox vaccine, MVA-BN^®.

This order, awarded under the existing 10-year contract framework established with PHAC in 2022, will ensure manufacturing of bulk vaccine product in 2026, with filling and supply of the final drug product to occur later.

With this award, Bavarian Nordic has now secured orders in its Public Preparedness business in 2026 for approximately DKK 1,400 million, an increase of DKK 100 million compared to latest communication. The full-year guidance for this business in 2026 remains unchanged at DKK 1,800-2,000 million.

“Public preparedness has remained a high priority in Canada for years, and we are proud to continue to support the government’s commitment to protecting its citizens against serious health threats, like mpox and smallpox,” said Paul Chaplin, President & CEO of Bavarian Nordic. “It is our aim to build and strengthen collaborations like this, as we have also done for decades with the US government through BARDA, and more recently with the EU through HERA, to facilitate a stronger public health response as a critical part of the defense against viral threats globally.”
