GERMANY'S

MOST INNOVATIVE

FOOD BRAND IN 2021

$SUMMARY - 012022$

Subdued start to the fiscal year 2022

due to global supply chain problems and the effects of the Ukraine war

Increased focus of the food retail and the discount sector on ensuring the basic supply

made new listings of Veganz products and the planning of promotions in the discount sector almost impossible

  • Set-up of "hybrid" production solutions for cheese and fish alternatives with two rented production facilities (SOP Q3 2022) in order to compensate set back of Veganz Food Factory
  • Further cooperation's in Food Service and Research and Development to drive innovation

New launch $Q1$ 2022

GUIDANCE 2022

For the fiscal year 2022, Veganz plans to expand brand awareness consistently further. Depending on the general conditions – in particular the expected worsening of supply chain bottlenecks, further negative effects of the Ukraine crisis and inflationary pressure on the consumer behaviour of customers, which cannot be assessed conclusively - the Company expects a slight sales decrease for the fiscal year 2022, both at Group level and at individual Company level of Veganz Group AG. Despite the non-recurrence of the one-off expenses required in the prior year due to comprehensive financing measures, the Company expects a slightly lower EBITDA compared to the prior year due to the sales decrease and the expected costs for the construction and expansion of the Veganz Food Factory.
