HELMA Eigenheimbau AG publishes 2022 annual report

Lehrte, March 22, 2023 – HELMA Eigenheimbau AG has today published its 2022 Annual Report in which it confirms its preliminary results for the past financial year announced on March 7, 2023. In addition to a detailed presentation of the business performance, the annual report also includes a detailed consideration of the strategic adjustments of the HELMA Group, which are necessary given the immense macroeconomic challenges in order to meet the currently prevailing market environment as optimally as possible as well as to operate from a position of strength in 2023.

In 2022, the HELMA Group generated revenue of EUR
302.5
million (previous year: EUR
331.5
million) and earnings before taxes (EBT) of EUR
3.5
million (previous year: EUR
27.3
million), which include EUR
17.6
million of extraordinary expenses in connection with the insolvency of Natura-Holzbau GmbH, formerly a major general contractor of HELMA Ferienimmobilien GmbH, and EUR
3.6
million of expenses for personnel measures. This is offset by EUR
2.4
million of income from the partial release of liabilities. Excluding these one-off effects, which amount to a net total of around EUR
18.8
million, consolidated EBT would have stood at around EUR
22.3
million, a good level within a very challenging market environment.

Planned EUR
0.40 per share dividend:
In its separate financial statements prepared according to the accounting principles of the German Commercial Code (HGB), HELMA Eigenheimbau AG reports net unappropriated profit of EUR
3.5
million for the 2022 financial year (previous year: EUR
13.8
million). The proposed dividend amounts to EUR
0.40 per share (previous year: EUR
1.72).

Outlook for 2023:
Taking the order book position into consideration as well as the project pipeline as of December 31, 2022, and assuming that demand, which remains subdued, steadily improves over the course of 2023, the HELMA Group expects a profitable financial year in 2023 with positive EBT at approximately the previous year's level (previous year: EUR
3.5
million) and revenue slightly to moderately above the previous year's figure (previous year: EUR
302.5
million).

Assuming a significant revival in market demand, the HELMA Group is also aiming for continuous revenue growth in the medium term while achieving attractive margins. As it is currently still unclear when the required level of market demand will be reached again, HELMA continues to refrain from issuing guidance beyond 2023, as announced on August 11, 2022.

The further, detailed presentation of the 2022 financial year and of the HELMA Group's strategic orientation can be found in the Annual Report 2022 published today. This can be downloaded from the investor relations website at the following direct link:
