Bobst Group SA business update and full year 2021 outlook - Conference for financial analysts and the media today in Zurich

Bobst Group confirms its full year outlook presented on 26 July 2021. Order intake in the last months was still on a good level, but, as expected, below the exceptionally high level recorded in the first half of 2021.

The Group expects full year sales of CHF 1.5 to 1.6 billion and an operating result (EBIT) margin of 5 to 6%. This is before a positive one-time operating result (EBIT) impact of around CHF 15 million from the sale of real-estate property in France, concluded in September 2021. The long-term financial targets of at least 8% operating result (EBIT) and a minimum 20% return on capital employed (ROCE) are confirmed.
