WashTec AG preliminary figures for 2023:
Augsburg, February 8, 2024: The WashTec Group has announced that, on preliminary figures, it successfully concluded fiscal year 2023 with an expected new revenue record of €490m. This represents an increase of 2% year on year (prior year: €482m). The expected EBIT of €42m is significantly higher than the prior-year figure of €38m; the EBIT margin is 9% (prior year: 8%). Fourth-quarter revenue amounted to €133m. It was thus not possible to repeat the prior year’s quarterly revenue record (€144m). Despite the lower revenue, EBIT of €15m was generated, as in the prior year. Overall, despite the uncertain economic environment, the WashTec Group was therefore able to achieve its revenue and EBIT guidance for fiscal year 2023. The number of employees fell by 137 to 1,687 as of December 31, 2023 (prior year: 1,824). The average number of employees at WashTec during the year was 1,768 (prior year: 1,806). With improved earnings, free cash flow increased to €46 million (prior year: €16 million), mainly due to the significant reduction in inventories and trade receivables. The Group’s year-end order backlog remained at a high level that was down on the prior year but significantly above the overall long-term average. Group preliminary key figures:
Publication of the full consolidated financial statements with the final figures for fiscal year 2023, including the guidance for the current fiscal year, and the associated conference call are planned for March 27, 2024.
