Despite a generalized decrease in volumes, there is a good result in terms of margins and net profit thanks to the positive industrial management and the structure of fixed costs.

The BoD approved a reorganisation project aimed at further supporting the Group's international growth.

At the beginning of March, the forecast for the entire year 2020 show a slight increase in volumes compared to last year.

Looking at the contingent situation, estimates in India and China remain unchanged while programming difficulties for Europe and the United States are recorded.

"Despite the drop in sales in 2019, a good result is consolidated in terms of margins and net profit. The structure of fixed costs allows us to absorb significant drops in volumes, ensuring an adequate profitability profile", comments Enrico Carraro, Chairman of the Group.

"The order book at the beginning of the year is potentially growing compared to expectations, above all thanks to the recovery of volumes in the Asian area, India and China in particular. – adds Enrico Carraro – At now, our factories are operating regularly and some delays recorded at the the beginning of this situation has been reabsorbed allowing the activities to continue efficiently. However, the uncertainty of the impact that could cause the spread of the Covid-19 virus globally remains strong".

"During today's Board of Directors, an important reorganization of the Group was also aimed at further supporting our growth internationally. On the one hand Carraro Drivetech Italia SpA, will be the head of Italian companies and businesses, and on the other Carraro International SE, a company governed by European law, will head the International ones. This is a structure that will allow us to have greater efficiency in terms of organization and management ", closes Enrico Carraro.
