Q3 2022 Earnings Announcement

10th of November 2022

Activity

The first nine months of 2022 were marked by a strong increase in the costs of energy, fuel and raw materials, as a result of the increase in inflation caused by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, thus generating an increase in uncertainty in the macroeconomic context at a global level. However, in this adverse environment, Vista Alegre demonstrated resilience and adaptability, mitigating some of this negative impact, both through the development of a series of investments over recent years aimed at improving the efficiency of its processes and through more efficient management of consumption and means of production.

Cumulatively in the first 9 months of 2022 the cost of gas was 16.1 million euros, compared to 2.3 million euros in the same period of 2021, an increase of 13.8 million euros directly penalising the company's EBITDA and operating income. The strong volatility of the average price of gas contributed to this, reaching the highest price ever in the 3rd quarter, surpassing 300€/MWh, twice as high as in the 1st and 2nd quarters of 2022.

In cumulative terms, Vista Alegre reached a turnover of 103 million euros in September of 2022, registering an increase of 28.3% compared to the same period in 2021, mainly supported by sales growth in the Porcelain and Stoneware segments, although growth was evident in all business segments.

The international markets of Brazil and the United States of America, and the markets of the Netherlands, France, Spain and Germany in Europe, were the main contributors to sales in the foreign market, representing 75.4% of the turnover of Vista Alegre, with 77.5 million euros in sales.

Results

Grupo Vista Alegre's consolidated results for the first nine months of 2022 showed a performance above that of the same period last year, with turnover reaching 103 million euros (28.3% up on the same period of 2021).

EBITDA stood at 14.9 million euros representing an improvement of 1.2% compared to the same period in 2021. It should be noted that the escalating conflict between Russia and Ukraine has accentuated inflationary pressure in Vista Alegre's main export market (Europe), with a direct impact on increased production costs, namely the cost of energy, logistics and raw materials, thereby adversely affecting the company's results.
