Munich, March 26, 2025 – The Wacker Neuson Group, a leading manufacturer of light and compact equipment, published its Annual Report for the fiscal year 2024 today. The ongoing weak market environment weighed on the Group's revenue and earnings performance in the past fiscal year 2024. Full dealer stocks led to a lower order intake and a decline in revenue, which was particularly evident in the second half of the year. The Group’s revenue for the year amounted to EUR 2,234.9 million (2023: EUR 2,654.9 million). Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) amounted to EUR 122.5 million (2023: EUR 273.2 million), the EBIT margin was at 5.5 percent (2023: 10.3 percent). Revenue and EBIT margin were thus within the most recently guided ranges (guidance revenue: between EUR 2,200 million and EUR 2,300 million; guidance EBIT margin: between 5.5 and 6.5 percent). In order to counteract the declining revenue and earnings trend in 2024, the Wacker Neuson Group introduced the “Fit for 2025” measures at an early stage, thereby specifically strengthening sales, sustainably reducing costs, reducing headcount, optimizing production capacities and successfully reducing inventories. The net working capital ratio at December 31, 2024 amounted to 31.7 percent and was lower compared to the previous year despite the decline in annual revenue Werbung Werbung „The year 2024 was characterized by full dealer stocks and an increasingly weak order intake as well as revenues. The effects will still be felt in the first quarter of 2025. In light of the first positive indicators, in particular an improved order book and a reduction in dealer stocks at the beginning of the year, and last but not least thanks to the impact of our extensive actions from 2024, we have already set the course for a sustainable turnaround in 2025. With increased operational efficiency and consistent implementation of our Strategy 2030, we are well positioned to increase profitability again in 2025 and achieve our long-term goals“, explains Dr. Karl Tragl, Chairman of the Executive Board of the Wacker Neuson Group.
Dividend proposal to the Annual General Meeting Wacker Neuson SE relies on attractive shareholder remuneration with the aim of continuously and appropriately involving shareholders in the profit of the Group. The dividend policy of Wacker Neuson SE provides for a payout per share of 40 to 60 percent of the earnings per share. The Executive Board and the Supervisory Board will propose a dividend payout of EUR 0.60 per dividend-entitled share at the Annual General Meeting planned for May 23, 2025 (2023: EUR 1.15), which corresponds to around 58 percent (2023: 42.1 percent) of earnings per share and an attractive dividend yield of 4.1 percent based on the 2024 year-end share price (2023: 6.3 percent).
Results for the fiscal year 2024 in detail
The Executive Board expects a gradually stabilizing demand in the Group's key markets in the fiscal year 2025 after a weak first quarter. The “Fit for 2025” actions introduced in the course of 2024 are also expected to have a further positive impact on the profitability of the Group over the course of the fiscal year 2025. The Executive Board has therefore approved the following guidance for the fiscal year 2025: Stable revenue development is expected in a range between EUR 2,100 million and EUR 2,300 million with an EBIT margin between 6.5 percent and 7.5 percent. In addition to this, investments amounting to EUR 100 million and a net working capital at the year-end amounting to approximately 30 percent of the yearly revenue are expected. Possible economic stimuli for Germany from the new German Special Fund for infrastructure and climate protection adopted shortly before publication of the Annual Report are not yet reflected in the guidance.
