HANZA Revises Financial Targets for 2025
February 15, 2024 | HANZAEstimated reading time: 1 minute
HANZA AB revises the financial targets for 2025. The sales target is raised to SEK 6.5 billion and the 8% operating margin target is increased to apply to the full year 2025. The reason for the revision is significant organic growth, increased profitability and a completed major acquisition. Other financial targets and the dividend policy are left unchanged.
In the fall of 2022, HANZA AB prepared a strategy for the next three years called "HANZA 2025".
In brief, it is based on developing capacity and expertise in existing manufacturing clusters and services. Acquisitions that support this direction are also part of the strategy. The strategy has proven to work well and is left unchanged. However, the financial targets are adjusted as follows.
Background
A significant increase in earnings means that the group already in 2023 exceeds its previous target of "8% by the end of the financial year 2025". Furthermore, the acquisition of Orbit One has resulted in HANZA reaching pro forma sales of SEK 5.2 billion, which exceeds the previous sales target of "SEK 5 billion for the financial year 2025".
Orbit One has a lower operating margin than HANZA, which will lower the HANZA Group's margin in 2024. Furthermore, an ongoing economic slowdown affects the margin negatively. However, HANZA has good experience of integrations and already in 2024, synergies from the merger with Orbit One are expected to lead to an increased margin. Historically, HANZA's business model has proven to generate new market shares even during weaker economic periods, which is why HANZA believes that long-term organic growth will continue. Further complementary acquisitions may also be included in HANZA 2025.
Based on this, the Board of Directors has decided to raise the sales target by 30% to SEK 6.5 billion for year 2025. Additionally, the operating profit target of 8% is increased to apply to the full year 2025 for the group.
