INSIDE INFORMATION, PROFIT WARNING: ROBIT LOWERS ITS NET SALES GUIDANCE, PROFITABILITY IS EXPECTED TO IMPROVE ACCORDING TO PREVIOUS GUIDANCE
Robit lowers its net sales guidance for 2024. The company's net sales in the Down the Hole business is expected to decline from the 2023 levels, as the completed delivery contracts have not been able to be replaced with new ones within the timeline the company aimed for. Additionally, demand in the construction industry has been lower than the company's expectations.
EBIT profitability is expected to improve, and guidance on this remains unchanged.
New guidance for 2024:
Robit estimates that, in 2024, net sales will decline compared to 2023. The company expects its comparable EBIT profitability in euros to improve compared to the previous year.
Previous guidance for 2024 issued on 21 February 2024:
Robit estimates that, in 2024, net sales will increase and comparable EBIT profitability in euros will improve compared to 2023.
