Insider Information, profit warning: Nexstim Oyj specifies its guidance for 2023
Nexstim Plc (NXTMH:HEX) ("Nexstim" or "Company") announces based on its updated business forecast, that the Company expects that its comparable net sales will grow in 2023 and its EBITDA (operating result before depreciations) for the financial year will be negative. The net sales and the comparable net sales for the full year of 2023 are estimated to be approx. EUR 7 million and full year EBITDA between EUR -0.6 and -0.3 million.
In the half-yearly report published in August 2023, the Company’s Future Outlook stated that based on business forecasts, the company expected that its comparable net sales would grow in 2023 and its EBITDA (operating result before depreciations) for the financial year would have been positive.
Mikko Karvinen, CEO of Nexstim, comments: “The change in business forecasts are due to the purchasing decision of NBS 5 systems to two hospitals in the US and one in Europe being postponed to 2024. The cost saving measures started in H1 2023 have progressed as planned and we expect the operating expenses for the full year to decrease in comparison to 2022. Based on the updated business forecast, the second half of 2023 will be record breaking in terms of net sales and positive EBITDA. We don’t see that the specification of the guidance for 2023 would have an immediate effect on the Company’s financial status.”
Nexstim will publish the Future Outlook for year 2024 latest in the Financial Statements release on 27 February 2024.
