Zurich, April 15, 2025 – Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR

Gurit (SIX Swiss Exchange: GURN) today reports unaudited net sales results. Net sales reached CHF 85.2 million, a decline of -12.9% at constant exchange rates or -12.4% in reported CHF versus the first quarter of 2024.

As expected, first quarter net sales have been impacted by the phase out of the carbon fiber pultrusion business and the continuous selective approach with Chinese Wind customers. Wind materials sales were higher than anticipated, with strong Western customers’ activity in Europe and North America, while both Manufacturing Solutions and Marine & Industrial were adversely affected by the overall market uncertainty around tariffs, which slowed down investment decisions.

Wind Materials achieved net sales of CHF 57.2 million for the first quarter of 2025. This represents a decrease of -13.2% at constant exchange rates compared to 2024. Despite exiting the carbon fiber pultrusion business, Gurit experienced a stronger start to the year than anticipated, driven by solid demand from its Western customers in Europe but also in North America for the onshore market.

Manufacturing Solutions achieved net sales of CHF 6.1 million, which represents a decline of -21.7% at constant exchange rates compared to 2024. The net sales were mainly affected by delays in investment decisions from Western customers, who await clarity on the tariffs before installing or relocating blade lines. On the contrary, the Indian market has shown stronger momentum than expected, promising regional growth opportunities.

Marine and Industrial reports net sales of CHF 21.9 million for the first quarter of 2025. This is a decline of -8.8% at constant exchange rates compared to last year. The declined net sales were primarily driven by a strategic stock realignment by its main agricultural customer, and also by ongoing uncertainty surrounding pre-announced tariffs, which affected overall market confidence in the US and contributed to softer-than-expected sales in both the Marine and the Industrial segments.

Outlook

Gurit is reiterating its expectations for 2025 to reach an adjusted operating profit margin around the 2024 level, as discontinued businesses will negatively impact profit in the first half. Due to global tariff tensions, a reliable net sales guidance for 2025 remains unavailable.

 

Annual General Meeting of Shareholders

The Annual General Meeting today approved all motions proposed by the Board of Directors. As previously mentioned on March 3, 2025, the strategic realignment, along with the associated restructuring measures, impacted the 2024 financial results. Given these circumstances, Gurit will not pay out a dividend in 2025.

 

The shareholders have elected Dr. Libo Zhang as a new member of the Board of Directors.

 

The AGM voting results will be published on Gurit’s Investor Relations webpage under the following link: http://www.gurit.com/Investors/AGM.
