With a consolidated turnover of EUR 94.5 million (previous year: EUR 105.9 million), the revenue forecast that was last adjusted in May 2024 in a range of EUR 95 million to EUR 100 million was almost reached. At the same time, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) as an important performance indicator decreased to EUR 7.1 million (previous year: EUR 10.7 million). Therefore, the Group EBIT for the last financial year, 2023/2024, is within the forecast target range of EUR 7.0 million to EUR 9.5 million. The consolidated net income for the year was EUR 5.3 million (previous year: EUR 7.6 million). Earnings per share were EUR 1.63 following EUR 2.32 in the previous year. The data visualisation segment contributed to the total turnover with a turnover of EUR 56.7 million (previous year: EUR 68.0 million). The turnover of the power supplies segment was EUR 37.8 million (previous year: EUR 37.9 million), at the previous year’s level. Sandra Maile, CEO of FORTEC Elektronik AG, comments: “Despite the worldwide recovery still being missing and the continued difficult conditions both domestically and internationally, we, the FORTEC team were again able to achieve a solid result. Our “Strong Together 2030” strategy that we adopted in the 2023/2024 financial year serves as a guideline for the digital and sustainable transformation that prepares FORTEC for a successful future in the medium term.” Forecast The Management Board is forecasting an optimistic Group turnover of EUR 95.0 million to EUR 110.0 million and a Group EBIT of EUR 6.0 million to EUR 8.0 million for the upcoming 2024/2025 financial year, which will mainly be influenced by the planned future investments. The forecast is based on the Management Board’s current assessment of the situation and is subject to macroeconomic developments and the geopolitical uncertainties. Sandra Maile adds: “Even though we are expecting a weaker first quarter of the new financial year according to initial estimates, a book-to-bill of 1.3 and an order backlog of EUR 57.2 million on 30/09/2024 (30/06/2024: EUR 53.4 million) indicate positive tendencies that point to recovery in the first three months.” Dividends The Management Board and Supervisory Board are maintaining their long-term dividend policy and propose distributing the same amount as the previous year of EUR 0.85 per share of the net profit of FORTEC Elektronik AG as of 30 June 2024.
