Positive financial impact was underestimated in Q1

Richter posted its Q1/25 results today morning. The Company beat analysts’ estimates in terms of net profit, while revenues and clean EBIT matched expectations. On the bottom line, the beat was attributed to significant FX gains of HUF 11bn (o/w HUF 14.0bn was unrealized). Richter generated an outstanding FCF of HUF 60bn in Q1 despite that we expected that the normalization in payables may drag on this figure. The management reiterated its guidance as they see both revenues and clean EBIT to grow by around 10% this year. Also noteworthy that foreign investors dumped Richter shares in Q1 at record pace despite the sound Capital Markets Day as their stake fell by nearly 2%pt.
