Key Points
- EBIT margin improved to 7.1% despite a 6% revenue decline, marking the seventh consecutive quarter of stable margins around 7%.
- Order backlog surged 14% to EUR96 million, with a book-to-bill ratio of 1.2, indicating strong future revenue visibility.
- Energy Management division grew 17% (excluding laser), driven by robust demand in data center liquid cooling and battery thermal management.
- Secured a major long-term plastics order with recurring revenue of over EUR10 million annually, plus several large cooling plant orders.
- Healthcare & Analytics revenue rose 6%, supported by a new liquid cooling system for CT scanners with orders exceeding expectations in Asia.
- Group revenue fell 6% to EUR113.3 million, primarily due to continued weakness in Print and Plastics markets.
- Plastics division suffered a 19% revenue decline, reflecting weak economic conditions and prolonged market downturn.
- Supply chain restrictions for heat exchangers, pumps, and compressors pose a risk to production and could impact second-half performance.
- Free cash flow turned positive only in Q2, with first-half cash flow at EUR0.5 million, impacted by working capital buildup.
- Management expects full-year revenue to likely land in the lower half of the EUR240-260 million guidance range due to ongoing market volatility.
