Positive profit warning: Componenta raises its net sales guidance, EBITDA guidance remains unchanged

Componenta Corporation Stock Exchange Release on 16 September 2021 at 15.35

Componenta raises its net sales guidance for 2021:

Componenta expects the net sales of continued operations in 2021 to be EUR 85–90
million. EBITDA is expected to improve from the previous year. In 2020, net
sales from continued operations were EUR 70 million and EBITDA EUR 3.7 million.

The potential increase in prices for raw materials, the general economic and
competitive situation, and the development of customers’ sales volumes may
affect the business outlook. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, future sales and
profitability developments are associated with uncertainties and poor
visibility.

Previous guidance for 2021 (published in the financial statement release on 26
February 2021)

Componenta expects the net sales of continued operations in 2021 to be EUR 70–80
million. EBITDA is expected to improve from the previous year. In 2020, net
sales from continued operations were EUR 70 million and EBITDA EUR 3.7 million.

The potential increase in prices for raw materials, the general economic and
competitive situation, and the development of customers’ sales volumes may
affect the business outlook. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, future sales and
profitability developments are associated with uncertainties and poor
visibility.

President and CEO Sami Sivuranta:
”In connection with the half-year financial report, we told that the first part
of 2021 met our expectations and proceeded in line with our growth strategy. Our
net sales increased and profitability improved as planned. In our business as
well as in the industry in general there is seasonality within the year and the
first half is typically stronger than the latter part of the year. Despite the
uncertainties related to COVID-19 pandemic we estimate that the strong first
part of the year and the current outlook for the latter part of the year gives
us a good basis for the growth in net sales and EBITDA in 2021.”

Componenta publishes its business review for January–September 2021 on Friday 5
November 2021.
