EQS-News: Cherry SE adjusts forecast for fiscal year 2025

Munich, 21 July 2025 – Cherry SE is lowering its forecast for the current fiscal year 2025. The Management Board is responding to the effects of the restructuring measures implemented in the first half of the year and to continued weak demand in the Components division and the Americas business.

Following the adjustment of its forecast, Cherry SE now expects consolidated revenue of EUR 100 million to EUR 115 million (previously EUR 105 million to EUR 120 million) and an adjusted EBITDA margin of between 0% and 2% (previously between 3% and 6%) for the 2025 fiscal year. The adjustment is mainly a consequence of the lower sales volume deliberately accepted in the first half of 2025. This results from strategic measures to streamline distribution channels and sustainably strengthen the price structure in the Peripherals segment.

The strategic realignment to focus on profitable core business areas is being consistently pursued. Evidence of the successful implementation of this strategy is the sale of the hygiene peripherals business (Active Key) in the second quarter, the proceeds of which will strengthen the company's liquidity.

The report on the first half of 2025 will be published as planned on August 14, 2025, under https://ir.cherry.de/en/home/publications/#interim-reports.
