GRAMMER GROUP – SALES & EBIT OUTLOOK 2019

More cautious full year outlook

  • • GRAMMER expects total sales of around EUR 2.0 billion (previously around EUR 2.1 billion) for the year 2019.
  • • The Automotive Segment will benefit from last year's TMD acquisition and further organic growth in North America, which more than offsets the market decline in Europe.
  • • The Commercial Vehicles Segment will continue to record a slight growth compared with the previous year despite a weaker third quarter.
  • • We expect the GRAMMER Group to achieve a good EBIT in absolute terms, which will be significantly higher than the EBIT of EUR 48.7 million recorded in the fiscal year 2018.
  • • The operating EBIT margin (adjusted for exceptional and currency effects) for 2019 as a whole will be at the current level of 3.8% (previously above 4.1%).

Important note:

The outlook for the full year 2019 is based on the current forecasts for the global economy as well as our main markets and customers and assumes a constant currency environment. Recent developments with respect to trade restrictions as well as mutually imposed retaliatory customs tariffs could have a negative impact on the sales of our customers and may leave noticeable traces on future earnings.
