  • Positive revenue development in particular due to market performance in APAC and EMEA as well as in both product areas
  • Strongly improved operating EBIT compared to the previous year
  • APAC was driven in particular by series start-ups with Chinese OEMs, and also recovered from burdens of COVID-19-related lockdowns in China previous year
  • EMEA with solid contribution in earnings
  • Turnaround of AMERICAS delayed
  • "Top 10 measures" initiated to boost profitability in 2024

FY 2023 GROUP REVENUE / EBIT / OPERATING EBIT GRAMMER

  • Despite macroeconomic challenges positive revenue development
  • EBIT increased significantly, also due to impairment losses in AMERICAS in 2022
  • Operating EBIT up considerably on previous year but below expectations:
    • negative volume/mix and FXeffects, volatile capacity utilization and increased personnel costs influence EBIT
  • Operating EBIT adjusted for:
    • EUR 4.1 million restructuring costs in AMERICAS
    • EUR 10.7 million negative currency effects

FY 2023 Deviation to GUIDANCE

  • Unfavorable change in revenue mix between Commercial Vehicles and Automotive
  • Unfavorable change in regional mix: APAC significantly bellow expectations
  • Unfavorable translatory currency effects (unadjusted in op. EBIT)
  • Countermeasures introduced at an early stage did not offset these negative effects entirely
    • particularly the single month of December was behind expectations

FY 2023 CAPITAL EXPENDITURE

  • EMEA still with highest portion of EUR 40.2 million for launching new products (i.e. center consoles)
  • APAC: EUR 27.5 million, mainly for ramping up new plants in Ningbo and Changzhou

7

• Working Capital decreased to EUR 195.8 million – significant increase of trade accounts receivables is overcompensated by improved inventories and increased accounts payables

  • Significantly improved earnings before taxes and substantially lower cash outflows from working capital compared to the previous year contributed to the improvement of free cash flow
  • Net debt decreased as a result of positive free cash flow

FY 2023 EQUITY, LEVERAGE AND GEARING ON GROUP LEVEL

  • Equity slightly higher due to hybrid loan of EUR 19.1 million
  • Net profit at EUR 3.4 million
  • Other comprehensive income of EUR -17.8 million (foreign currency conversion EUR -11.0 million)
  • Improved Leverage due to increased EBITDA LTM from EUR 117.4 million to EUR 123.8 million
  • Gearing better due to reduction of net debt

FY 2023 EMEA REVENUE / EBIT / OPERATING EBIT GRAMMER

  • EMEA enjoyed a strong first half of the year
  • Poorer market conditions in the second half affected both product areas negatively
  • The agreements to pass on inflation-related cost increases made a significant contribution to EBIT improvement
  • Earnings were reduced by challenging new launches and higher personnel expenses
  • Operating EBIT adjusted for negative currency effects

FY 2023 APAC REVENUE / EBIT / OPERATING EBIT GRAMMER

  • Strong revenue growth due to the normalization of the supply & demand situation and the start of the production in the new Hefei plant
  • EBIT and operating EBIT climbed essentially due to the revenue upturn
  • Operating EBIT adjusted for negative currency effects

FY 2023 AMERICAS REVENUE / EBIT / OPERATING EBIT GRAMMER

  • Reduction in revenue mainly attributable to Automotive, which was impacted by the premature expiry of a customer project and a respective plant closure as well as strikes at several OEMs
  • EBIT and operating EBIT improved but again fell short of expectations (previous year also burdened by an impairment)
  • Op. EBIT negatively impacted by lower volumes and unadjusted one-timers (plant closures, equipment relocations, ramp-ups of serial production and start-up of a new paint line in Mexico)
  • Operating EBIT adjusted for EUR 4.1 million restructuring costs and EUR 3.9 million negative currency effects
