    March 24th 2023

    Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR:
    Mikron Group’s provisional closing figures for 2022

    Biel – The Mikron Group once again significantly improved its earnings situation in the past financial year. Both business segments succeeded in increasing annual net sales and achieving record results in terms of order intake. According to provisional, unaudited figures, the Group increased net sales from CHF 289.5 million in 2021 to CHF 309.4 million in 2022 (+6.9%). The Group was able to improve its order intake by 33.5%.

    Order intake

    At CHF 408.0 million, the Mikron Group’s order intake in the 2022 business year was CHF 102.3 million higher than in 2021 (CHF 305.7 million, +33.5%). The Mikron Automation business segment contributed CHF 239.0 million to order intake, while the Mikron Machining Solutions business segment posted CHF 169.0 million.

    Net sales and order backlog

    The Mikron Automation business segment contributed CHF 183.8 million (previous year: CHF 176.7 million, +4.0%) to Group net sales of CHF 309.4 million (previous year: CHF 289.5 million, +6.9%); the Mikron Machining Solutions business segment increased its share from CHF 112.9 million to CHF 125.7 million (+11.3%). At CHF 270.7 million, the Group’s order backlog at year-end was 53.2% higher than at the end of 2021 (CHF 176.7 million). As some of these orders are long-term projects, a significant portion of the order backlog from the end of 2022 will not impact the Mikron Group’s sales until 2024.

    Profitability

    For the 2022 business year, Mikron is expecting an EBIT margin of 8% to 9% (previous year: 6.1%). Profit is expected to benefit from positive tax effects.

    Mikron will announce the Group’s detailed closing figures for 2022 at the Media and Analyst Conference on March 10, 2023.
