Blomberg, August 14, 2024 – Delignit AG (ISIN DE000A0MZ4B0), a leading manufacturer of ecological hardwood-based products and system solutions, presented its half-year figures today. Consolidated revenue amounted to € 36.7 million in the first half of the year (previous year: € 48.2 million), which corresponds to a year-on-year decline in revenue of around -24%. In terms of profitability, the Delignit Group generated EBITDA of around € 2.3 million (previous year € 4.5 million) with an EBITDA margin of 6.4 %. With these results, the half-year figures are in line with the guidance for this year’s business development.  

  

The reason for the noticeable decline in revenue is the automotive target market, in which the product area of the caravan industry in particular lost significant ground compared to the previous year. At the same time, however, key OEM series supply contracts in the light commercial vehicle industry also fell short of the agreed contract volumes. In contrast, the Technological Applications target market performed well, achieving significant growth of 89%. However, this positive development was unable to compensate for the decline in the Automotive business, as the Technological Applications accounted for only 11% of revenue in the first half of the year.  

  

The outlook for the second half of the year remains cautiously positive, but is subject to considerable uncertainty. Major OEM customers have announced a recovery in various series supply contracts for key fleets. However, first early indicators in both the caravan and commercial vehicle industries point to a further slowdown.  “We are looking ahead with cautious optimism, even though we are confronted with unprecedented uncertainty and volatility in our markets. Nevertheless, it remains our ambitious goal to achieve our guidance for the financial year,” reports Markus Büscher, CEO of Delignit AG. The Management Board thus confirms the forecast for the 2024 financial year, which envisages revenue of € 75 to 80 million with EBITDA profitability of 6 to 7%.  

  

The half-year report 2024 is available on the company’s website www.delignit.com in the Investor Relations section.
