Gothenburg, Sweden, on June 14, 2022
Getinge is revising down its 2022 outlook for organic net sales growth. The new outlook for organic net sales is expected to be in line with actual net sales 2021. This is a result of accelerated external challenges from the end of the first quarter. Getinge's long-term financial targets for organic growth of 4-6% remain unchanged.
Getinge's previous outlook for 2022 was at the upper end of 4-6%. Due to external challenges, the outlook is now revised down in line with year 2021 level. The two main challenges are a mild flu season globally, which means reduced demand for products for ECMO therapy and a rapidly reduced production of COVID-19 vaccines, to which Getinge supplies Sterile Transfer products. In addition, revenue growth is negatively impacted by the lockdowns in key parts of China, which have amplified supply chain disruptions, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and a shortage of health care providers in the field of elective surgery.
Lower volumes and an unfavorable product mix are expected to have a 1-2 percentage points negative impact on the EBITA margin in 2022.
For 2022, Getinge's financial position is expected to remain strong, with low net debt and positive operating cash flow. For the coming years, the underlying demand is expected to be strong and Getinge's long-term financial targets remain unchanged.
This outlook and the figures presented herein have not been reviewed by the company's auditor. Getinge will publish its Interim Report January – June 2022 on July 19, 2022.
