Elmos Semiconductor SE

Earnings Release • May 7, 2020

Quarterly statement Q1 2020

January 1 to March 31, 2020

Sales growth of 3.3% in Q1 2020 Coronavirus expected to affect the rest of the year

"We assume that the numerous plant closures among automotive manufacturers will have a significant negative impact on business performance over the rest of the year," says Dr. Anton Mindl, CEO of Elmos Semiconductor AG. "Elmos started protecting its employees with comprehensive preventive measures at an early stage. At the same time, we have implemented operational measures including short-time work, and will expand those measures to manage the economic effects of the crisis caused by the pandemic. Since, among other things, customer acquisition continues at the same high level, we believe that Elmos remains in a very strong position in the medium term. That is particularly the case thanks to our strong financial position."
