(1)Comparing like-for-like figures.
In the third quarter of 2022, AKWEL posted a consolidated turnover of 251.1m, up by +18.7% on the previous year when comparing figures and by +22.3% when taking exchange rates and scope as constants. In a still difficult market context, the group has confirmed the gradual recovery in its activity, but it is still down -3.3% compared to the third quarter of 2019, before the health crisis.
In nine months of the financial year, AKWELs turnover increased by +10.2% when taking exchange rates and scope as constants.
Over nine months, turnover from Products and Functions increased by 6.2% to 714.4m, with performance particularly driven by Cooling (+13.4%), Washing (+8.5%) and Air (+6.9%).
Free cash-flow generation was 6.6m in the third quarter, giving the group 112.6m in net cash (excluding debt on rental obligations), an increase of 14.3m over nine months.
AKWEL confirms its expectation of moderate revenue growth for the year 2022. The ongoing supply difficulties and inflation of operating costs, which is difficult to pass on in the short term, will, as announced, lead to a significant fall in the groups annual current operating income.
