paragon confirms half-year figures
Delbrück, August 21, 2024 - paragon GmbH Co. KGaA [ISIN DE0005558696] today published its interim report as of June 30, 2024, confirming in full the preliminary half-year figures already communicated in July. paragon generated revenue of EUR 75.4 million in the first six months of the 2024 financial year (previous year: EUR 86.4 million). As already reported, the reduction in revenue compared to the same period of the previous year was expected by the management and is mainly due to the sale of the starter battery business in autumn 2023 and the slow recovery in customer call-off behavior. Alongside revenue growth, increasing profitability is the most important target for paragon. Here, paragon made further progress in the first half of 2024. EBITDA in the continuing operations increased from EUR 8.1 million in the same period of the previous year to EUR 8.5 million in the first half of 2024 despite a reduction in revenue. As a result, the EBITDA ratio rose from 9.3% in the first half of 2023 to 11.3% in the first half of 2024. Due to the significant reduction in debt and the elimination of the one-off costs of interim financing from the first half of 2023, financing expenses also fell significantly from EUR 7.4 million in the same period of the previous year to EUR 3.2 million in the reporting period. As a result, earnings after interest and taxes from continuing operations improved to EUR -1.0 million after EUR -5.6 million in the same period of the previous year. The company's consolidated interim report as at June 30, 2024 is available for download at https://ir.paragon.ag/
