Earnings Calls
Last Earnings Call
Sales: Leifheit said first-half turnover fell 5.8% in a very weak market, with management saying results were below initial expectations and reflecting softer consumer demand and tough channel dynamics.
Margin: Gross margin improved again and reached 46.2%, which management said was sustainable, though higher raw material and container costs are expected in the second half.
Profitability: First-half EBIT was minus EUR 2.7 million, mainly because of heavier marketing spending, freight costs tied to D2C growth, and strategic project costs.
Outlook: Full-year guidance was cut to slight revenue decline, EBIT stable at 0, and free cash flow breakeven, with management pointing to restructuring costs and a difficult macro backdrop.
Strategy: Leifheit is pushing three big initiatives: the brand relaunch, the FOCUS efficiency program, and a possible divestment of non-core businesses.
Cash & Dividend: Free cash flow was minus EUR 7.3 million in the first half, but management still expects breakeven for 2026 and said it is not changing its dividend policy.
