Comments on the results

Sales for the year were 770 million euro, down 29% against 2019, reflecting the impact of the covid-19 pandemic on our end-markets across all regions. The gross profit margin for the year declined 3 percentage points to 37%, mainly due to an unfavorable product mix. As operating expenses for 2020 were managed down to 20% below 2019, while sustaining investments in priority projects, EBITDA amounted to 54 million euro for a 7% EBITDA margin. Q4 improved over Q3 including a 20% quarter-over-quarter recovery in order intake and 17% uptake in sales – with all divisions contributing to this progress.
