Higher profit, softer volume outlook
Management expects fourth-quarter sales revenue to remain above the prior-year level, but warned that volume growth may slow because of first-half pull-forward effects and seasonal factors. Risks for volumes, costs and margins remain high. Free cash flow before acquisitions fell to EUR 92 million in the first nine months from EUR 181 million a year earlier, mainly because higher prices increased operating working capital.
