Viscom SE Meets 2024 Financial Targets Amid Market Challenges

In 2024, Viscom SE, a leader in optical and X-ray inspection systems, aligned its revenue and EBIT with forecasts despite a tough market. The company faced a 33.7% drop in incoming orders, marking €75,050 thousand against €113,248 thousand the previous year. Revenue shrank by 29.2% to €84,082 thousand, but remained within the company's forecast ranging between €80 million and €95 million.

Despite a severe EBIT hit of €-11,818 thousand due to reduced revenues and restructuring costs, Viscom's measures have adjusted its cost structures to current market conditions effectively. The company does not anticipate significant market changes in 2025 but expects positive earnings with projected revenues between €80 million and €90 million and an EBIT margin of 2% to 5%.

Viscom's restructuring aims to strengthen its position in electronics, industrial, and battery inspections, focusing on digitalization. While the 2024 dividend is not proposed due to the net loss, the company remains committed to future profit distributions.
