Turnover fell to 2.36 billion, the group result was 100 million euros and was also lower than 2023 – all this does not prevent Palfinger from talking about a very successful financial year. “It is the second best year of business history – that can make us all proud,” says Baas Andreas Klauser. They had responded quickly to stuttering the question.
“Palfinger is very strong”, emphasized a member of the Palinger Finance Board Felix Strohbichler, who presented the figures for the past financial year in detail on Thursday morning. Even if a low number was shown than 2023 in sales, group result and employees, the specialist for crane and leverage solutions is very satisfied with how the fluctuating order -inputs are controlled.
Fewer layers, overtime broken down
“The measures we have taken, the actions we have set,” emphasized CEO Andreas Klauser, a resident of Upper Austrian who has been head of the company that has been near Bergheim near Bergheim from Bergheim. What measures have Palfinger taken? “We started to adjust the personnel capacities relatively early,” reported director Maria Koller. The separation of surrogate employees was “very early in the year”, as Koller called it. Overwork accounts were driven to zero, layers reduced, for months there was a four -day week in almost all works in Europe, plus individual mutual mutual divorces of employees.
“We have not done Hauruck campaigns, so that we can also control the structure of the capacities,” says it. Now in March the works in Austria, including those in Lengau, again in operation, revealed Koller. “The work will not go out, but also the daily challenges to manage things will not be less,” said Klauser. You can already see the growth in order.
Unused country will be sold
The first measures have already been decided to reduce the net financing debt. In this way there will be further inventory, on the other hand, the sale of properties you had protected in stock, both steps together with around 80 million euros.
