AIXTRON SE reports preliminary Q2/2024 figures and adjusts FY 2024 guidance
Herzogenrath, 04 July 2024 – AIXTRON SE (FSE: AIXA, ISIN DE000A0WMPJ6) is reporting preliminary results for the second quarter 2024. Preliminary order intake in the second quarter of 2024 turned out strong at approx. EUR 176 million (Q2/2023: EUR 177.9 million) with the largest shares of equipment orders coming from the Silicon Carbide (SiC) power (~58%) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) power (~29%) segments. At approx. EUR 132 million (Q2/2023: EUR 173.5 million) preliminary revenues were in the upper half of the guided range (EUR 120 – 140 million). The preliminary operating result (EBIT) totaled approximately EUR 13 million (Q2/2023: EUR 44.6 million). The EBIT margin thus amounts to about 10%.
Based on the current market developments and the planned exchange rate of USD 1.15/EUR (2023: USD 1.15/EUR), the Executive Board is adjusting its forecast for the 2024 financial year and now expects revenues in the range of EUR 620 million to EUR 660 million (previously EUR 630 million - EUR 720 million), a gross margin of around 43% - 45% (unchanged) and an EBIT margin of around 22% - 25% (previously 24% - 26%).
The full half-year report 2024, including the final figures for the first half of 2024, will be published as planned on 25 July 2024.
