Ad hoc announcement pursuant to article 53 LR
S c h l i e r e n, 24 June 2024: Delayed commissioning of systems for the
production of reinforcing wire mesh is leading to significantly higher costs
and to the threat of conventional penalties for the Schlatter Group.
Schlatter is therefore recognising provisions in the low single-digit
million range. The operating result for the first half of 2024 will
therefore be significantly below the previous year's figure; however,
Schlatter expects a positive operating result (EBIT). Order intake in the
first half of the year developed according to plan, and the Schlatter Group
is well utilised for the second half of the year. Schlatter is endeavouring
to build on the positive earnings performance of the previous financial year
in the second half of the year.
