Baikowski® confirms consolidated revenue of €53.0 million in 2022, up 18.1% compared with 2021. This record business enabled the Group to record strong EBITDA of €12.3 million, up 4.2% compared with 2021, and very good EBIT of €8.1 million, up 15.7% compared with 2021.

The Group’s profitability decreased in 2022, with EBITDA representing 23.2% of revenue (down 3 points compared with 2021) and EBIT representing 15.3% of revenue (down 0.3 points compared with 2021). This was attributable chiefly to the energy crisis and commodity inflation. The Group has limited their impact by continuing to apply a prudent, long-term management policy, particularly in terms of supplies, inventories and customer relationships.

After net financial expense of €0.3 million and a tax expense of €1.3 million, the consolidated net result (Group share) for the period was €6.5 million, or 12.3% of revenue. The Board of Directors will propose a dividend of €0.60 per share to the General Meeting of Shareholders.

Strengthened by its resilience in a complex environment, Baikowski® remains more than ever focused on its long-term and sustainable prospects.
