SGL Carbon SE provided earnings guidance for the year 2020. The solid operational development in the third quarter 2020 with Group sales between EUR 220 million and EUR 230 million and operating recurring EBIT between EUR 13 million and EUR 15 million (plus approximately EUR 9 million positive one-time effects) is within the framework of expectations for the full year 2020. However, the Group net result is likely to develop below the prior year level of minus EUR 90 million and reach approximately between minus EUR 130 million and EUR 150 million due to the restructuring provisions as well as the impairment charge (prior guidance: improvement to a negative low double-digit million amount).
