Frankfurt/Main, September 13, 2022
Based on current estimates of the expected key financial figures, the Executive Board of KION GROUP AG expects a low triple digit million EUR loss for the third quarter of 2022 on KION Group level and in its Supply Chain Solutions (SCS) segment due to intensifying supply chain shortages as well as significantly higher cost increases for materials, energy and logistics.
On KION Group level, the third quarter 2022 adjusted EBIT is anticipated to be in the range of € -100 to € -140 million (Q3 2021: € 228.9 million). Order intake is expected to be significantly below the third quarter 2021 (Q3 2021: €3.107 billion), with the Supply Chain Solutions segment substantially below the record level of the third quarter 2021 (Q3 2021: € 1.399 billion). Free cash flow will continue to be negative and is expected to be significantly lower than the previous quarter (Q2 2022: € -158.9 million).
