full-year earnings guidance for 2023 - first H2 volume production order
received

· Revenue increases by around 10 % to €1.54 billion in the
nine-month period
· Adjusted EBIT up by around 40 % to €92.7 million in the
nine-month period - 2023 guidance for the adjusted EBIT margin raised to
between 5.3 % and 5.8 % (previously: around 5 %)
· New orders hold steady in Q3 2023 (up by 0.5 % compared with Q3
2022)
· First volume production order for 100 hydrogen-powered gensets
received from China
Cologne, November 9, 2023 - DEUTZ is maintaining its growth trajectory and can
look back on a successful third quarter, with revenue rising by 11 percent
and adjusted EBIT climbing by around 30 percent to approximately
€30 million. In the first three quarters of this year, the drive
manufacturer increased its revenue by around 10 percent, while adjusted EBIT
advanced by around 40 percent to almost €93 million. The significant
improvement in profitability can be seen from the growth of the EBIT margin
before exceptional items from 4.7 percent to 6.0 percent.
"The strong results for the third quarter show that we are operating on an
increasingly profitable basis as we forge ahead with the implementation of our
Dual+ strategy. This has enabled us to raise our full-year guidance for the
adjusted EBIT margin from around 5 percent to an anticipated range of between
5.3 percent and 5.8 percent. The improved performance of the Classic
business - illustrated by a jump in the adjusted EBIT margin to 8.8 percent -
enables us to finance both the expansion of our service business and the
establishment of our green product portfolio while continuing to achieve
profitable growth," says DEUTZ CEO Dr. Sebastian C. Schulte.
Commenting on the Group's order situation, DEUTZ CFO Timo Krutoff adds: "Our
new orders held steady in the third quarter, bucking the wider market trend.
Pre-order effects in 2022 led to a year-on-year fall in new orders over the
first three quarters of 2023 but, given the healthy level of orders on hand,
we are nevertheless optimistic about the final quarter of the year and are
confirming our revenue guidance of around €2.1 billion."
The ongoing implementation of the Dual+ strategy is delivering tangible
success, and not simply from an operational perspective. In the Green segment,
DEUTZ took its first volume production order for 100 hydrogen gensets from
China. CEO Schulte: "The first volume production order for our new
hydrogen-powered gensets represents a major strategic milestone in many
regards. It shows that we can offer products that meet market demand also
outside our existing drive portfolio. It will allow us, and our customer, to
gain invaluable experience with this pioneering technology. And looking
forward, it brings us another step closer to becoming climate-neutral."
The gensets will initially be powered by gray hydrogen, which is a by-product
of industrial processes. This can reduce carbon emissions by up to 800 tonnes
per year per genset compared with conventional electricity generation. These
gensets are already creating a hydrogen technology infrastructure, which at a
later point in time will be able to switch to using climate-neutral green
hydrogen. Volume production of DEUTZ hydrogen engines for stationary
applications is scheduled to begin at DEUTZ's Cologne-Porz site at the end of
2024.
The Company is also continuing to systematically implement the organizational
changes in the Green segment that were initiated during the summer. These
changes are primarily aimed at grouping together the development and sales
activities relating to alternative drives in order to maintain an even sharper
focus on the needs of the market and customers. The strategic realignment also
affects the investment in DEUTZ subsidiary Torqeedo, which focuses on electric
boat drives. DEUTZ is currently in advanced sales negotiations with a number
of prospective buyers. The transaction is expected to be completed next year.
Furthermore, the Company has made progress with the global expansion of the
service and parts business, the 'plus' in its Dual+ strategy. The acquisition
of the Scandinavian Diesel Motor Nordic Group, which was completed at the
start of October, represents another key milestone in the transition from
traditional engine manufacturer to provider of on-highway and off-highway
solutions. The revenue of the highly profitable service business grew by
7.2 percent to €360.5 million in the first three quarters of this year.
The service business thus accounted for around 23 percent of consolidated
revenue and now constitutes the second-largest area of business in terms of
revenue.
Fall in new orders, primarily due to spending brought forward in 2022;
double-digit revenue growth
New orders received by the DEUTZ Group amounted to €1,435.8 million in the
first nine months of 2023, compared with €1,519.7 million in the same
period of 2022. The year-on-year decrease of 5.5 percent was primarily due to
implementation of the fixed-volume program for compact engines in the fourth
quarter of 2022. The supply chain disruptions, resulting in longer delivery
times during that period, had prompted customers to place orders early, with
longer order horizons. This had boosted new orders in the fourth quarter of
2022, particularly in the Construction Equipment and Material Handling
application segments. These pre-orders, along with the normalization of
customers' ordering behavior as the supply chain difficulties gradually ease
over the course of 2023, is bringing levels of new orders this year back in
line with the average.
Orders on hand totaled €666.5 million as at September 30, 2023 (September
30, 2022: €828.8 million). This still represents a high level of orders on
hand that is well above the volumes seen at the corresponding dates in the
years prior to the pandemic and the supply chain crisis.
With a total of 137,559 DEUTZ engines 1 sold, DEUTZ registered an increase in
unit sales of 5.1 percent in the reporting period. This growth was
predominantly attributable to a sharp rise in unit sales in the Material
Handling application segment.
DEUTZ's revenue grew by 10.3 percent to €1,540.0 million. All regions and
nearly all of the main application segments recorded increases in revenue. The
stronger increase in revenue relative to unit sales was largely due to
positive product mix effects, combined with a market-oriented pricing policy
in the Classic business and the discontinuation of older engine series with
lower average sales prices.
Further jump in earnings
Adjusted EBIT (EBIT before exceptional items) amounted to €92.7 million in
the first three quarters of 2023, a rise of €26.8 million or 40.7 percent
compared with the prior-year period. DEUTZ achieved this despite the
year-on-year increase in the loss reported by Torqeedo in the third quarter,
unfavorable currency effects and higher procurement and employment costs. This
significant improvement was due to the growth in the volume of business in the
Classic segment, combined with market-oriented pricing and the focused
implementation of the growth strategy in the service business. The adjusted
EBIT margin also made a strong year-on-year improvement, rising from
4.7 percent to 6.0 percent.
Taking account of exceptional items amounting to an expense of
€0.7 million, EBIT for the first nine months of 2023 amounted to
€92.0 million (Q1-Q3 2022: €57.4 million 2
(file:///C%3A/Users/wmueller/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/INetCache/Content.Outlook/4C1MIUGW/1768807-1699511421-EN.html#_ftn2)
).
Due to the increase in adjusted EBIT, net income improved from
€45.1 million in the first three quarters of 2022 to €65.9 million in
the first three quarters of 2023. As a result, earnings per share increased
from €0.37 to €0.53. Net income before exceptional items stood at
€66.5 million and earnings per share before exceptional items at €0.53.
Financial position remains comfortable
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to a net cash inflow of
€58.3 million in the first nine months of 2023, compared with a net cash
outflow of €13.8 million in the prior-year period. This improvement was
attributable to the smaller amount of net cash used for working capital and to
the rise in operating profit. As a result, free cash flow improved from minus
€69.8 million in the prior-year period to minus €13.4 million in the
reporting period.
The equity ratio stood at 45.7 percent as at September 30, 2023, compared
with 45.3 percent at the end of 2022. The DEUTZ Group's financial position
therefore remains comfortable.
Full-year guidance for 2023 refined - improved profitability expected
DEUTZ is refining its full-year guidance for 2023 as follows in view of its
business performance in the first three quarters and on the basis of its
existing planning for unit sales and production:
Having announced in April that unit sales would reach the upper end of the
target range included in the original guidance of 175,000 to 195,000 DEUTZ
engines 3
(file:///C%3A/Users/wmueller/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/INetCache/Content.Outlook/4C1MIUGW/1768807-1699511421-EN.html#_ftn3)
, the Company now anticipates unit sales of around 185,000 to 190,000 DEUTZ
engines. This is still expected to result in an increase in consolidated
revenue to around €2.1 billion.
As the measures to boost efficiency and profitability in the Classic segment
continue to be implemented successfully, the Group's adjusted EBIT margin is
anticipated to be between 5.3 percent and 5.8 percent, which is higher than
the figure previously forecast of around 5.0 percent. Looking at the
individual segments, the adjusted EBIT margin for the Classic segment is now
expected to be between 8.0 percent and 8.5 percent (previously: 6.0 percent
to 7.0 percent). Adjusted EBIT for the Green segment is likely to amount to a
loss of around €55 million (previously: adjusted EBIT margin of minus
40 percent to minus 30 percent).
Free cash flow before mergers and acquisitions is predicted to be in the
mid-double-digit millions of euros.
