Inside information, profit warning: Kamux lowers its outlook for the year 2024

Kamux lowers its outlook for the year 2024 because in the last quarter of the year sales have been lower than expected and the margin level has weakened significantly due to the tight market situation in all of Kamux’s operating countries. Kamux now expects the adjusted operating profit for 2024 to be EUR 11–13 million. Previously Kamux expected its adjusted operating profit for 2024 to be EUR 15–17 million.

Rationale for updating the outlook
In the last quarter of 2024, demand for cars sold by Kamux has been weaker than expected. Due to the tight market situation, purchase and sales prices have been under pressure in all three markets, resulting in sales volumes falling short of targets and the average margin on cars sold has decreased significantly.

New outlook for 2024:
Kamux expects the adjusted operating profit for 2024 to be EUR 11–13 million.

Previous outlook for 2024:
Kamux expects its adjusted operating profit for 2024 to be EUR 15–17 million.

Kamux publishes the Financial Statements Bulletin for 2024 on Thursday, February 20, 2025.
