Ancenis, October 26, 2023 - Michel Denis, Chief Executive Officer, stated "The Group's activity was very sustained in the third quarter, enabling us to achieve a +26% growth for the first 9 months of the year compared with September 2022. The slowdown in construction and, to a lesser extent, agriculture markets is strengthening in Europe. Furthermore, our determination to restore shorter delivery times has led us to maintain order intakes beyond 2024 closed to dealer networks, resulting in low order intake for the quarter and a decrease in our order book, which should continue to decline in the coming quarters.

Taken together, these factors enable us to confirm our expectation of annual revenue growth of around 20% compared with 2022, and to raise our expectation of recurring operating profit to around 6.5% of revenues."

Review by division

With quarterly revenues of €559 million, the Product Division recorded growth of +17% compared with Q3 2022, and +31% over the first 9 months of the year (+33% at constant scope and exchange rate). The fluidification of the operational chain has accelerated the clearance of the order book. In September, the division inaugurated an extension to its Madison facility in the United States, specialised in the production of compact equipment.

With quarterly revenues of €97m, the Services & Solutions Division (S&S) recorded a 2% decrease in revenue compared with Q3 2022, and a +3% increase over the first 9 months of the year (+4% at constant scope and exchange rate). The division continues to develop its digital services, and inaugurated in September a new spare parts platform in India .

Glossary :

(1) Like for like, so at constant scope and exchange rates :

- Scope :

- for the company Lifttek acquired in May 2022, restatement from January 1 of the current year to the anniversary date of its acquisition ;

- for the companies acquired in 2023 (easyLi in January 2023 and GI.ERRE SRL in March 2023), restatement from the date of their acquisition to

September 30, 2023 ;

- no company exited the scope in 2022 and 2023.

- Application of the exchange rate of the previous year on the aggregates of the current year.

(2) The order book corresponds to machine orders received and not yet delivered, for which the group :

- has not yet provided the promised machines to the customer;

- has not yet received consideration and has not yet been entitled to consideration.

These orders are delivered within less than one year (excluding exceptional periods as experienced by the Group since 2021) and may be cancelled. The order book may vary due to changes in consolidation scope, adjustments, and foreign currency translation effects.

In order to limit the effects of inflation, the group has integrated in H1 2022 mechanisms for adjusting its sales prices at the time of delivery. These mechanisms will influence the valuation of the orderbook on equipment, which is booked and valued at the price on the day the order is placed.

The Group has also introduced in 2022 a new policy of gradually opening the order intake horizons for dealers in order to limit the effects of anticipation without an end market customer.
