EQS-News: United Labels AG
/ Key word(s): Half Year Report/Half Year Results
United Labels AG (ISIN: DE 0005489561), one of Europe's leading brand manufacturers in the media/entertainment sector, generated consolidated sales of EUR 10.2 million in the first six months of the 2024 financial year (previous year: EUR 13.3 million). The decline in sales is due to order postponements beyond the reporting date of 30 June 2024. Despite the lower sales, a significantly higher gross profit margin led to an increase in consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of EUR 1.2 million (previous year: EUR 1.1 million). Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) also rose to EUR 1.1 million (previous year: EUR 1.0 million), while consolidated net profit for the first half of 2024 remained unchanged at EUR 0.6 million (previous year: EUR 0.6 million), which corresponds to a return on sales of 5.9% (previous year: 4.5%). Sales in the high-margin e-commerce business, which is still being built up, developed very favourably. In the first six months of 2024, revenue increased by 93% to EUR 1.2 million, with the strongest quarter in terms of revenue being by far the fourth quarter with the Christmas business. ‘I am very satisfied with our performance in the first half of 2024. As our customer campaigns are planned for the longer term, I am optimistic that the second half of the year will go very well,’ explains Peter Boder, CEO of United Labels AG. Despite the postponement of orders, the company continues to expect growth in sales and earnings in 2024 as a whole. The order backlog increased by 17% to EUR 12.2 million as at 30 June 2024 (previous year: EUR 10.4 million). In the previous financial year 2023, United Labels generated sales of EUR 24.8 million and EBITDA of EUR 1.3 million.
