The earnings call presented a mixed picture with modest sales growth and strong cash flow performance overshadowed by challenges in key regions, revised guidance, and increased costs. While there were some notable achievements, the impact of market conditions and inflation has led to a cautious outlook.

Company Guidance

During the FUCHS SE Half Year Results 2025 Analyst Conference Call, the company provided revised financial guidance for the full year 2025, anticipating no significant market recovery. Despite a 2% year-over-year increase in sales for the first half, driven by internal growth and acquisitions, EBIT fell short of expectations. Factors such as an unfavorable product mix in the U.S., inflationary pressures, and pre-investments impacted margins. EBIT guidance was reduced by 6%, yet the company maintains its free cash flow before acquisitions target of EUR 260 million, supported by cost-saving measures. The company's strategic focus includes strengthening its presence in Switzerland through acquisitions and expanding production capabilities in Mexico.

Sales Growth Despite Challenging Conditions

FUCHS SE managed to grow sales by 2% year-over-year in the first half of 2025 despite challenging market conditions. This growth was driven by internal volume growth and recent acquisitions including BOSS, IRMCO, LUBCON, and the STRUB Group.

Strong Cash Flow Performance

Free cash flow before acquisitions was strong, coming in at EUR 81 million, well above the prior year's level of EUR 69 million, driven by net working capital reduction.

Positive Developments in Asia-Pacific

The Asia-Pacific region, specifically China and India, showed strong performance in the first half of the year, benefiting from local production investments and strategic market positioning.

Celebration of 40 Years on the Stock Exchange

FUCHS SE celebrated its 40th anniversary on the stock exchange, maintaining a record of annual profits and continuous dividend payments for 23 consecutive years.
