Corbion Q1 2018 Interim Management Statement
Corbion reported sales of €
213.0 million in the first quarter of 2018, a decrease of 7.4% due
to currency effects. Organic sales growth was 2.5%, due to a strong
increase in Biochemicals and Innovation Platforms. EBITDA excluding
one-off items decreased by 19.2% to € 38.6 million due to currency
effects and higher input costs.
"The start of the year saw a
continued positive momentum with organic sales growth recovery in
Ingredient Solutions, that has returned to the 2-4% target range.
As anticipated, a weaker US dollar and negative raw material price
effects have put pressure on our Ingredient Solutions EBITDA,
nevertheless we were able to maintain a healthy margin in this
business segment. We are experiencing improving market dynamics in
bioplastic PLA, which is encouraging for the future development of
our PLA joint venture plant, which is scheduled to open later this
year.", commented Tjerk de Ruiter, CEO.
