Overview of business performance

  • The downturn in business performance in the second half of 2021 continued in the first quarter of 2022

  • Revenue and earnings development in the first quarter were impacted by rising material, logistics, energy and personnel costs, renewed COVID-19 lockdowns affecting the Chinese market, and sustained bottlenecks in the procurement markets

    EUR 291.7 million)

  • Across the three regions, revenue in the Automotive Division decreased by 3.6% from EUR 336.2 million in Q1 2021 to EUR 324.2 million in the reporting period, mainly due to revenue declines in the EMEA and APAC regions; in con-trast, revenue in the Commercial Vehicles Division increased by 13.9% year-on-year to EUR 190.8 million in Q1 2022 (Q1 2021: EUR 167.5 million)

  • GRAMMER Group EBIT declined to EUR -1.2 million in the period from January to March 2022 and was therefore significantly below previous year's value (Q1 2021: EUR 22.6 million)

  • Operating EBIT amounted to EUR -2.5 million in the first quarter of 2022 (Q1 2021: EUR 21.0 million), resulting in an operating EBIT margin of -0.5% (Q1 2021: 4.2%)

  • Outlook for 2022 confirmed: GRAMMER Group forecasts full-year revenue of around EUR 2.0 billion (2021: EUR 1.9 billion) and operating EBIT of around EUR 35 to 40 mil-lion (2021: EUR 22.8 million); depending on their duration and how they progress, however, the risks arising from the war in Ukraine and the protracted coronavi-rus lockdowns in China could have a more pronounced impact on GRAMMER Group revenue and earnings and adversely affect the forecast
