Gabriel Holding A/S – three quarters of the 2022/23 financial year
Summary and expectations for the 2022/23 financial year:
In the first three quarters of the year, Gabriel Holding A/S delivers revenue of DKK 715.2 million compared to DKK 812.7 million in the same period last year, and operating profit (EBIT) of DKK 18.2 million compared to DKK 60.1 million in the same period last year.
A short-term order horizon and major fluctuations in market conditions have been general features of the financial year which have made it particularly difficult to formulate accurate expectations. The Group’s expectations for the full financial year 2022/23 were thus adjusted downwardly on 23 June because revenue was at the lower end of the previously announced range of expectations and the Group’s operating profit was negatively affected by a decrease in the level of activity. This meant a relative decrease in productivity in the short term.
After an additional two months’ trading, the Group’s expectations are adjusted downwardly to revenue of the order of DKK 930-940 million and operating profit (EBIT) of the order of DKK 17-19 million.
Management continues to believe that revenue and profit in the current financial year 2022/23 will be challenged by the international political situation, foreign exchange and interest rate fluctuations and the resulting market uncertainties.
The level of uncertainty surrounding our expectations for the year is thus higher than normal at this point in the financial year.
The previous expectations were revenue of the order of DKK 950 to 975 million and operating profit (EBIT) of DKK 20 to 30 million.
