Dürr AG adjusting earnings forecast for 2022, unchanged medium-term goal for EBIT margin of at least 8%
Dürr AG - WKN 556520 / ISIN DE0005565204
Bietigheim-Bissingen, May 2, 2022 - Dürr AG is adjusting its earnings forecast for 2022 in response to the mounting global supply chain problems in recent weeks. Given protracted cost inflation, renewed lockdowns in China and geopolitical uncertainties, the Board of Management does not expect the supply chain constraints to ease significantly before the end of 2022. By contrast, the forecast for 2022 published in February had assumed a marked improvement in the second half of the year. At the same time, Dürr AG confirms its medium-term target of an EBIT margin of at least 8% in 2023 or 2024, since the current turmoil is only temporary in nature.
The EBIT margin before extraordinary effects is now expected to be in a range of 5.0-6.5% in 2022 instead of the previously projected figure of 6.5-7.5%. In 2021, it had reached 5.6%, coming to 4.9% in the first quarter of 2022. In the second quarter, lockdowns in China will temporarily exert an adverse effect on sales and earnings.
The full-year forecast for order intake, sales and free cash flow for 2022 remains unchanged. In the first quarter of 2022, order intake rose to a record €1,400.5m (up 35.7% on Q1 2021). This was driven by record order intake at HOMAG (€573.8m) and significant growth in automotive business and in environmental technology. The full-year target corridor of €4,100-4,400 million in 2022 remains readily achievable.
Sales climbed by 14.7% to €905.7 million in the first quarter. Despite the temporary adversities in China, further growth and the achievement of the sales target of €3,900-4,200 million are expected for 2022 as a whole.
Free cash flow amounted to €74.8 million in the first quarter and should reach €50-100 million in 2022 as planned. Although net working capital is expected to rise in the further course of the year as a result of the planned growth in sales, customer prepayments should remain strong thanks to the good order situation, while capital spending should reach the lower end of the target corridor (4.0-5.0% of sales).
The following positive currency translation effects were registered in the first quarter of 2022: order intake €+59.7m, sales €+20.8m, EBIT before extraordinary effects €+2.0m.
As things currently stand, the Board of Management is confident that margins will widen significantly in 2023, underpinned by the high order intake and order backlog, the price adjustments implemented and the margin quality of orders on hand. Against this backdrop, the Board of Management is optimistic that the medium-term target for the EBIT margin of at least 8% will be achieved by 2024 at the latest.
The Group's adjusted earnings targets for 2022 are shown in the table below. An adjusted forecast for the divisions is expected to be published together with the half-year figures on August 4, 2022.
The full interim financial statement for the first quarter of 2022 will be published, as announced, on May 10, 2022. A conference call with the Board of Management will be held for investors and press representatives on May 3, 2022 at 2pm (CEST). The conference call previously scheduled for May 10, 2022 has been canceled.
