Executive summary

  • Sales declined 20% year-over-year to CHF 685.1 million, with order intake down 3% to CHF 703.4 million, reflecting cyclical market weakness, lower yarn margins, and volatile investment sentiment.

  • Operating EBIT dropped to CHF 2.5 million from CHF 33.9 million in 2024, supported by cost management but impacted by significant restructuring and transaction costs.

  • Net result swung to a loss of CHF 63.4 million, impacted by CHF 54.2 million in restructuring, transaction, and impairment effects.

  • Strategic flexibility preserved, portfolio strengthened, and positioned for earnings recovery as demand normalizes, with successful Barmag acquisition expanding presence in man-made fibers.

  • Leadership changes followed the acquisition, with Georg Stausberg joining the executive committee.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
