Evonik Industries AG is already today publishing the following preliminary figures for the second quarter of 2024 and adjusting its outlook for the financial year 2024.

Based on preliminary, non-audited figures, Evonik expects an adjusted EBITDA* of €578 million in the second quarter of 2024 (Q2 2023: €450 million). The current market expectation is €531 million (Vara Research analyst consensus as of May 29, 2024).

As there was still no broad-based macroeconomic recovery, company-specific factors in particular led to this positive development: In addition to continued strict cost discipline, good volume development in Specialty Additives, as well as a price recovery in Animal Nutrition and lower production costs were drivers of the sequential increase.

Based on this development, Evonik is raising its outlook for adjusted EBITDA* as follows: The company now expects adjusted EBITDA* for the financial year 2024 to be between €1.9 billion and €2.2 billion (previously: €1.7 - €2.0 billion).

Following a slight decline in the first quarter, sales in the second quarter were, based on preliminary figures, at just above €3.9 billion and thus around the level of the previous year (Q2 2023: €3.9 billion).

Evonik Industries AG will publish final figures for the second quarter of 2024 on August 1, 2024, as planned.
