Eurofins Scientific SE

Muddy Waters is short Eurofins: controlling shareholder Dr. Gilles Martin has siphoned capital via above-market real-estate leasebacks for 20 years, and the financials appear engineered to overstate revenue, profits, and cash.

Eurofins' 800+ immaterial subsidiaries and 18 auditors enable sham sales and cash double-counting; new evidence, including a factoring denial contradicted by a former BU head, argues the financials cannot be trusted.

Eurofins' €556m 'excess cash' earned just 1.42% vs banks' quoted ~2.88%, echoing the NMC Health fraud tell; only radical disclosure on cash, entities, and Dr. Martin's real estate can clear it.
