UniDevice AG: preliminary results for the first quarter of 2022
Schönefeld, 04/29/2022 - UniDevice AG (ISIN: DE000A11QLU3) announces that the international B2B brokerage for communication and consumer electronics with a focus on high-priced smartphones from leading manufacturers such as Apple and Samsung suffered from the international supply chain disruptions in the first quarter of 2022.
Sales fell by 19.16% from EUR 92.1 to 74.4 million.
The gross margin fell from 2.5% to 0.62%. The loss for the quarter was EUR -0.43 million (previous year's period: EUR +0.92 million).
The devaluation of the EUR against the USD led to a good trading result in April 2022 due to significant sales of goods in USD.
Due to the high inflation, preference changes in consumer purchasing behavior are conceivable, which can lead to changes in sales of high-quality and expensive smartphones.
"In this macroeconomic situation, we are aiming for a profit for the full year 2022 at the previous year's level. Due to the macroeconomic uncertainties, a reliable forecast is currently hardly possible;" says Dr. Christian Pahl, member of the board.
