Strong Top-Line Acceleration Driven by Food and Asia

Comments

BY APPLICATION

  • Strong increase in Revenues from Systems across both markets:
  • Plastic: further consolidation of the leadership position, with strong growth in EMEA and Asia
  • Food: strong acceleration, executing our strategy to gain market share
  • Service: flattish top line as a result of
    • Lower activity in North America due to the production shift to the new facility (now concluded)
    • Food spare parts and service additional business not yet visible in the performance

BY GEOGRAPHY

  • Strong momentum in:
  • EMEA, reflecting mainly acceleration in Food (alongside with strong double digit performance in plastics)
  • Asia, as a result of recent organizational changes and broadening of the end-markets served
  • Slowdown in in North America partially impacted by relocation to new plant (now completed) impacting profitability in ramp-up phase
  • South America performance affected by adverse FX movements

Profitable Growth Path Continuing in Line with Expectations…

  • Plastic vs. Food mix effect driving Contribution Margin down (structurally lower in Food due to higher incidence of raw materials)
  • Dilution of Contribution Margin more than offset by structurally lower fixed costs in Food, resulting in overall margins expansion (~20bps at Adj. EBITDA level, ~40bps at Adj. EBIT level)
  • Increased Net Income despite negative effect of IPO / other oneoff costs (c. €5.4m)
