Inside information: Positive profit warning - Raute updates its guidance regarding profit

Previous guidance for 2025: (published on February 13, 2025):
Raute's 2025 net sales are expected to be between EUR 190-220 million and comparable EBITDA to be between EUR 17-24 million.
Rationale for the new guidance:
Raute's project deliveries have progressed better than anticipated, which has led to positive profit development during the first quarter. Therefore, Raute raises its guidance on profit for the full year. The order backlog previously received by Raute has supported positive business development despite the low new order intake in the first quarter due to the exceptionally challenging market environment.
