2021 was characterised by constantly growing demand for STEICO's environmentally friendly insulation materials and construction products, resulting in sales surging by 25.7% to reach a new record-breaking figure of € 388.2 million.

Earnings also increased to a new record thanks to a high level of capacity uptake, an optimised product range and forward-looking price structures.

EBITDA was up 60.1% year-on-year at € 91.3 million and EBIT grew by 101.3% to € 67.6 million. Net income increased by 109.7% and totaled € 48.2 million.

The convergence of a series of positive effects meant that profitability was also exceptional in 2021. The EBITDA margin of 23.1% and the EBIT margin of 17.1% also broke new records.

Earnings per share amounted to 3.42 € (previous year: 1.63 €).

Successful start to the year in a more demanding environment

As a result of the war between Russia and Ukraine, and also the problems in global supply chains, insecurity on the market increased substantially. In particular, higher inflation has caused construction work to become increasingly expensive.

In spite of this, however, the STEICO Group recorded a successful start to the year. The first quarter of 2022 was characterised by constant high demand for STEICO's environmentally friendly insulation materials and timber construction products.

As a result, revenue in the first quarter improved by 27.9% compared to the previous year to € 115.9 million. EBITDA totaled € 23.5 million and was thus 23.9 % higher than in the previous year. EBIT was up 24.6% year-on-year at € 17.2 million.

EBITDA margin in % TOR 20.3 % 21.6 %
EBIT 17.2 €m 13.8 €m
EBIT margin in % TOR 14.9 % 15.7 %

Dividend proposal

Based on the positive business development the board of administration proposes to annual general meeting to appropriate the net retained profits in 2021 to pay a dividend of 0.40 € per share (dividend 2020: 0.30 € per share). The volume of the dividend distribution would amount to 5,633,386.00 € in total.

Forecast

The STEICO Group's constant increases to its capacity reserves mean that the Group is excellently positioned to continue its growth. Unless there are additional negative effects from developments in the economy, the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the Executive Board believes that in 2022 turnover will lift by more than 20% with an EBIT ratio of between 13% and 15% (in terms of total operating revenue).
