PALFINGER AG: Earnings forecast for Q1 and first half of 2025
significantly below the previous year's figures, significant compensation
for the downturn expected in the second half of the year
Bergheim, Austria on February 7, 2025
Based on the forecast calculation for Q1 2025, PALFINGER AG expects a
downturn in EBIT of around a third compared to the record quarter of the
previous year (EBIT Q1/2024: EUR 54.7 million). The main reason for this
is the difficult market environment in 2024.
Order intake in core European markets is already recovering, which should
have a positive effect on earnings development starting in Q2. For the
first half of 2025, management nevertheless expects EBIT to be
significantly below the previous year's figure (EBIT HY1/2024: EUR 112.2
million).
Management expects a further improvement in the overall economic climate.
In the second half of 2025, the decline in earnings is expected to be
significantly offset, resulting a good full year 2025.
The final figures for fiscal year 2024 will be published on March 5, 2025.
