MT Højgaard Holding A/S has today published the MT Højgaard Group’s financial review for the first quarter of 2019, which can be summarised as follows:
The first-quarter results showed increasing revenue and improved earnings, as expected.
- Revenue increased by 11% to DKK 1.7 billion as a result of high order intake in 2018
- EBIT was DKK 5 million compared with a loss of DKK 56 million in the first quarter of 2018
- Order intake at DKK 1.4 billion was slightly below the first-quarter 2018 level
- The order book was DKK 8.8 billion compared with DKK 6.9 billion in the same quarter last year
- Equity in MT Højgaard A/S was given a DKK 400 million boost at the beginning of April 2019
- Pro forma equity at the beginning of April 2019 can be determined at approx. DKK 785 million, corresponding to an equity ratio of approx. 20%
The outlook for 2019 is unchanged.
- Revenue is expected to be around DKK 7.0 billion
- EBIT is expected to be around DKK 75 million
”The revitalisation of MT Højgaard is proceeding according to plan with further stabilising of operations during the quarter, while the other companies in the Group continue to make reasonable progress. As expected, earnings were affected by the completion of projects that contribute low or no earnings. We expect a further improvement in earnings during the rest of the year, so 2019 will be a year of transition during which we will turn things around and create a sustainable basis for future improvements in profitability and cash flows,” says Group President & CEO Anders Heine Jensen.
