GRAMMER AG: Year-on-year change in earnings performance in first quarter of 2024
Ursensollen, April 9, 2024 - Based on its preliminary figures for the first quarter of 2024, GRAMMER AG's earnings
performance was lower than in the same period of the previous year. Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) for the
first three months of 2024 declined to around EUR 3.9 million compared with the previous year (Q1 2023: EUR 11.7
million), while operating EBIT amounted to around EUR 2.4 million (Q1 2023: EUR 13.9 million). Operating EBIT was
adjusted for positive currency effects of around EUR 1.5 million. Group revenue for the period from January to March
2024 fell by EUR 32.5 million compared to the same period of the previous year and amounted to around EUR 556.6 million
(Q1 2023: EUR 589.1 million).
Operating earnings in the first three months of 2024 were mainly impacted by revenue decline, higher costs in
connection with volatile capacity utilization at plants, ramp-up costs at the new commercial vehicle plant in the US
and currency losses. Moreover, revenue in the EMEA and APAC regions was lower than expected in the first quarter of
2024. This was due to weaker demand from manufacturers in response to the significant and continuing macroeconomic and
industry-specific uncertainties.
The Executive Board is maintaining its full-year guidance as published in the 2023 Annual Report (Group revenue of
around EUR 2.3 billion; operating EBIT of around EUR 75 million).
The interim management statement for the first quarter of 2024 will be published on April 29, 2024.
