Wacker records 16% EBITDA fall 03 February 2020
Germany: Wacker has reported a fall of 16% year-on-year in its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) to Euro780m in 2019 from Euro 930m in 2018. Wacker Group CEO Rudolf Staudigl said, “Our earnings last year were strongly influenced by non-recurring effects from insurance compensation received and from the impairment charge on fixed assets. We are currently working on a comprehensive program to make Wacker more efficient and capable, and to achieve substantial cost savings.” He indicated that the group would set out specific targets in early-2020.
