  • Weak demand continues to impact sales and earnings
  • Book-to-bill ratio of 1.05
  • Working capital reduced as planned

Prime Standard-listed GESCO SE, an industrial group of medium-sized market and technology leaders, today published its 9-months statement 2024.

Incoming orders totalled € 400.6 million in the reporting period, down 4.0 % on the previous year, but significantly higher than the sales generated. This results in a book-to-bill ratio of 1.05. Overall, GESCO Group generated sales of € 382.9 million in the first three quarters, which was significantly below the previous year's figure. This development reflects the general weakness in demand in the investment sector in Germany and Europe, particularly in the mechanical engineering sector, which is so important for our largest subsidiary Doerrenberg. It is pleasing to note that we have not seen any migration of customers to competitors.

The lower sales and, above all, negative effects due to the low-price level at Doerrenberg caused EBITDA to fall from € 44.5 million to € 26.5 million in the reporting period. At € 9.2 million, EBIT in the reporting period was significantly lower than in the same period of the previous year (Q1-Q3 2023: € 28.8 million), as were Group earnings after minority interests, which totalled € 5.4 million (Q1-Q3 2023: € 19.6 million).

Earnings per share for the reporting period totalled € 0.51 (Q1 - Q3 2023: € 1.80).

"Certainly, we cannot be satisfied with our business performance in the current year," says CEO Johannes Pfeffer, who took office on 1 October 2024, "and an improvement in the short term is not yet foreseeable. However, now that I have visited all GESCO Group companies and have been able to gain an in-depth impression, I am very confident that we will benefit disproportionately from an improvement in the general conditions and ultimately emerge stronger from the current crisis. We have very strong companies whose products fulfil essential customer needs. I see great potential for growth, both in existing markets and in new markets to be developed".
