INTERIM GROUP MANAGEMENT REPORT
for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021
Alternative Performance Measures (APMs) in the interim group management report for the first half of fiscal year 2021
In accordance with the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures, the Stabilus Group provides a definition, the rationale for use and a reconciliation of APMs used. The Group uses the following APMs: organic growth, adjusted EBIT, free cash flow (FCF), adjusted free cash flow and the net leverage ratio. The calculation of the net leverage ratio is based on net financial debt and adjusted EBITDA, which are also considered APMs.
The APM organic growth is presented because we believe it aids in understanding our operating performance. Organic growth is defined as the reported revenue growth after removing the effects of acquisitions, divestitures and at constant foreign exchange rates. The effects resulting from constant foreign exchange rates are calculated as current year sales converted at current year exchange rates less current year sales converted at prior year exchange rates.
The definitions and required disclosures of all other APMs are provided in the relevant sections of this interim report.
Key events in the first half of fiscal year | 2021 |
The Stabilus fiscal year 2021 (beginning on | October 1, 2020) is stillaffected |
by the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact on the macroeconomic environment and also on the global economy have a wide-ranging. The market environment in which we operate, i.e. automotive and industrial business, recover faster than expected. The positive development allows us to raise our guidance for fiscal year 2021 to a revenue of between €900 million to €950 million (previously: between €850 million to €900 million) and with an adjusted EBIT margin of between 13% and 15% (previously: between 12% and 13%), as announced on April 12, 2021. This is reflecting a further stabilizing global economy and recovery in the global automotive production. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic an uncertainty remains.
Due to strong recovery of the economy and the Group's diversified product portfolio, the Stabilus Group's total revenue increased by €27.1 million or 6.0% to €479.4 million in the first half of fiscal year 2021. The positive global development is reflected in the positive development of the markets in which we operate. The Automotive Powerise® business increased by 16.5% to €137.8 million and the Automotive Gas Spring business increased by 6.4% to €159.0 million. However, our Industrial business recovered more slowly from the COVID-19 pandemic and is slightly below prior year by (1.1)% to €182.5 million.
On March 4, 2021, Stabilus issued its first promissory loan note (Schuld- scheindarlehen) with a total volume of €95.0 million, via its subsidiary Stabilus GmbH. The tranches of the promissory loan note with maturities of five and seven years bear variable interest rates (details in Note 12). The promissory note loan is part of our long-term financing strategy and grants us flexibility in the implementation of our growth plans. The financial stability of the Stabilus Group is very comfortable. Our net leverage ratio is at 0.9x compared to 1.2x at September 30, 2020 (we refer to net leverage ratio on page 15).
On March 8, 2021, the Stabilus S. A. announced its plan to change the legal form from Société Anonyme (S. A.) into an Societas Europaea (SE) and the subsequent transfer of the registered office from Luxembourg to Germany. The change of the legal form as well as the transfer of the registered office of the Company require the approval of the general meeting of the Company.
The intended change of the legal form into an European Company is due to the increasing international orientation of Stabilus, which has gained in importance following the acquisitions of companies in recent years. The relocation will simplify the Group's structures and thus reduce complexity, which will lead to cost savings and efficiency gains. At the same time, the transfer of the registered office means that in the future both the Group headquarters and the stock exchange listing of Stabilus will be located in Germany. This process is expected to be finalized in the first quarter of the calendar year 2022. Further information on the planned measures can be found at: www.stabilus.com/investors/se.
