VERBIO AG: EBITDA in the 2019/2020 financial year substantially increased again.
Zörbig/Leipzig, September 4, 2020 - VERBIO Vereinigte BioEnergie AG is expected to have generated EBITDA of EUR 122 million in the 2019/2020 financial year (previous year: EUR 95.1 million). Net cash as of 30.06.2020 is expected to be EUR 56 million (previous year: EUR 64.2 million).
Due to the measures taken during the COVID-19-pandemic, such as the production of disinfectants, and the increase in biofuel margins at the end of the financial year, the financial year's result is expected to be significantly higher than our own forecast and market expectations.
Most recently, the company expected to achieve EBITDA in the order of EUR 110 million in the 2019/2020 financial year and to increase net cash to the order of EUR 40 million by the end of the financial year. The corresponding ad hoc announcement of 22 January 2020 can be viewed on the VERBIO AG website.
Detailed information on the business development for the financial year 2019/2020 can be found in the Annual Report 2019/2020, which will be available on 23 September 2020 at www.verbio.de.
