AkzoNobel CEO Greg Poux-Guillaume commented:
“For the third consecutive quarter, we demonstrated our ability to deliver growth in mixed markets, while expanding gross margin* by 160 basis points. Although our operational costs are up, efforts to mitigate this inflationary cost pressure are accelerating and measures are already underway, above and beyond our industrial efficiency program. This will allow us to deliver on our 2024 ambitions, towards the lower end of our guidance and in line with current consensus**.”
*Excluding the impact for hyperinflation accounting and identified items
**Consensus published on our website, dated July 11, 2024
Outlook
Based on current market conditions and constant currencies, AkzoNobel expects to deliver 2024
adjusted EBITDA towards the lower end of its full-year guidance range of €1.5 to €1.65 billion.
