Inside information, profit warning: KH Group Plc lowers its guidance for 2024

KH Group Plc lowers its guidance for 2024.

In the 2023 Financial Statements Release published on 21 March 2024, the company estimated net sales of EUR 400–420 million and operating profit of EUR 14–16 million for the financial year 2024. The guidance did not include the operating profit of approximately EUR 3.7 million from Indoor Group’s real estate sale in Estonia, which the company announced on 21 March 2024 at 12 noon.

According to the updated guidance, the company estimates, with the current Group structure, to reach net sales of EUR 400–420 million and operating profit of EUR 12–16 million in 2024, including the operating profit from the real estate sale in Estonia.

The lowering of the guidance is based on lower-than-expected net sales and operating profit in Indoor Group and KH-Koneet mainly in the first quarter. KH Group is expected to fall significantly short of the pro forma figures of the comparison period, Q1/2023, when net sales was EUR 100.2 million and operating profit was EUR 1.0 million. General market uncertainty, labour union strikes in Finland and the implementation of Indoor Group’s new ERP system have negative impacts on KH Group’s net sales and operating profit.

The company will publish its January–March 2024 Business Review on Tuesday, 7 May 2024.
