Pfleiderer has released poor FY 2024 results, with net leverage increasing 4.0x y-o-y to 9.1x. Positively, the numbers (excluding electricity hedging) improved slightly in Q4 as the business started stabilising, albeit at low levels. Looking ahead, we anticipate a gradual recovery, supported by cost-saving initiatives and a (slow) market recovery.
