PIERER Mobility AG: Guidance for 2020

Wels (pta032/30.01.2020/17:35) - --

Positive outlook 2020:

• Offensive with HUSQVARNA E-Bicycles in Europe
• Integration GASGAS

PIERER Mobility AG announces, that the guidance for the business year 2020 will be amended. A major reason is the early and complete takeover of the e-bicycle business (PEXCO) into the newly founded HUSQVARNA E-Bicycles at the end of 2019 as well as the integration of GASGAS.

For the business year 2020 a revenue growth of 8 - 10 % is expected. As a result of the expansion into the electric 2-wheeler activities and the integration of the third motorcycle brand GASGAS, an EBIT margin between 6 - 8 % for the business year 2020 is temporary expected. Due to the operating earnings before depreciation (EBITDA), which remains at a high level, a positive free cash flow between 45 to 55 mEur is also anticipated for the business year 2020. For the upcoming years, a sustainable positive free cash flow between 3 - 5 % of sales is expected.

The previously published guidance 2020/2021 is no longer valid.

Preliminary financial figures for the financial year 2019 will be published earlier on January 30, 2020 (after the close of trading on the stock exchange).
