Zehnder Group's 2024 Results and Strategic Efforts

Zehnder Group AG reported a 7% decrease in sales in 2024, reaching EUR 705.8 million. The operating result (EBIT) dropped 76% to EUR 14.1 million, with a net loss of EUR 2.4 million. Strategic measures worth EUR 35.9 million impacted the results, specifically aimed at optimizing profitability.

The ventilation segment accounted for 60% of total sales, benefiting from the acquisition of Siber in Spain. However, sales and operating results decreased across its segments due to economic uncertainties and reduced construction activity. Despite these challenges, the company managed to improve the EBIT margin by the year's end.

Efforts to transform into a leading provider of indoor climate solutions continued with investments, including expanding the Gränichen site into a center of excellence. A dividend of CHF 1.00 per share is proposed, reflecting the financial year's results.
