In January-September 2021 turnover increased by 28 per cent year-on-year to EUR 625 million and consolidated EBITDA increased by 33 per cent year-on-year to EUR 78 million. Rettig Group announced two significant transactions during the third quarter of 2021; the divestment of Nordkalk including a re-investment into SigmaRoc, the buyer of Nordkalk, and the contemplated listing of Purmo Group through a merger with Virala Acquisition Company. The Nordkalk transaction was closed on 31 August 2021 and the closing of the Purmo Group transaction is expected at year-end 2021. Earlier during the year, Rettig Group announced and completed the sale of its shares in Alandia. 1) Nordkalk was divested on 31 August 2021 and reclassified as asset held for sale. The net profit from Nordkalk and the reported sales profit are reported separately as profit from discontinued operations. Thus all other lines in the income statement, including 2020 numbers, are excluding Nordkalk. The reclassification was made as of January 2020. 2) The definition of EBIT has been changed as of 2021 in terms of gain or loss from financial investments which has been moved to EBIT from financial items. The impact of this change has been restated in the 2020 numbers and was EUR 1.1 million in 7-9/2020, EUR 0.9 million in 1-9/2020 and EUR 5.6 million in 2020. 3) Including divestment of Alandia shares in June 2021 and Nordkalk shares in August 2021. 4) Calculated on the profit from continuing operations. Financial highlights • Rettig Group’s turnover in January-September 2021 improved by 28 per cent to EUR 625 million (488) thanks to the strong underlying demand for Purmo Group’s products. • EBITDA grew by 33 per cent to EUR 78 million (58) supported by the overall strong demand and benefits from the successful structural improvement programme in Purmo Group. • EBIT improved by 145 per cent to EUR 90 million (37) additionally supported by strong continued financial investments performance. • Free cash flow was EUR 497 million during the review period (82). This reflects solid operative cash flow as well as disposal proceeds from Alandia and Nordkalk. • By the end of September 2021 net debt / EBITDA was reduced to approximately zero as all senior loans and part of the outstanding commercial paper loans were repaid following the receipt of the Nordkalk sale divestment proceeds. Outlook for 2021 There is stronger evidence of sustained economic recovery in 2021. Pent-up demand and expansionary monetary and fiscal policies are expected to support the recovery further.
