INSIDE INFORMATION, PROFIT WARNING: ROBIT UPDATES ITS GUIDANCE FOR 2025
Robit lowers its net sales and EBIT profitability guidance for 2025. Exchange rate development and weak demand in the construction industry have affected negatively net sales and profitability development during the first half of the year.
Robit continues to implement measures to adjust costs and ensure long-term profitability.
New guidance for 2025:
Robit estimates that, in 2025, net sales will decline compared to 2024. The company expects its comparable EBIT profitability in euros to remain at the same level or decline compared to 2024.
Background for the guidance
The guidance is based on the assumption that demand in the mining industry remains at a good level and that demand in the construction industry will develop positively during the second half of 2025. The guidance also assumes that there will be no significant changes in exchange rates from the levels at the end of the first half of 2025, and that potential import tariffs will not materially weaken the company's relative competitiveness in key markets.
