Operating result (EBITDA) also declined, impacted by a decrease in sales, ending at EUR 24.9 million, maintaining a margin of 9.1%.
Order intake dropped by 13.5% to EUR 233.5 million due to hesitant investments amid ongoing economic difficulties. The order backlog decreased by 19.8%, reflecting the tough business environment.
