Fiskars Corporation's Half-year Financial Report for January-June 2024 indicates a solid performance despite challenging market conditions. The company's comparable net sales decreased by 5% in the second quarter, while reported net sales, including the acquisition of Georg Jensen, increased by 5%. The gross margin reached an all-time high, driven by the Vita business area and cost efficiency programs, although lower volumes led to a decline in comparable EBIT to EUR 19 million. Free cash flow recovered to a record high in the second quarter. Fiskars maintains its guidance for 2024, expecting comparable EBIT to be slightly above the 2023 level of EUR 110.3 million. The company continues to focus on efficiency improvements and anticipates significant cost synergies from the Georg Jensen acquisition, which is nearly fully integrated. Key performance indicators showed mixed results: gross margin improved, but comparable direct-to-consumer sales and U.S. net sales decreased, while China's net sales increased by 10%. Employee engagement and ESG performance were highlighted, with over 10% of employees becoming shareholders and the company receiving several ESG recognitions, including the EcoVadis Platinum Medal. Fiskars' strategic initiatives and transformation programs aim to support long-term growth and efficiency. A webcast on the results will be held on July 18, 2024.
