Glaston Corporation released its January-September 2024 interim report, highlighting cautious development in the architectural glass processing equipment market and growth in China's mobility glass processing market, though the latter is expected to remain volatile. The company's net sales are projected to remain at 2023 levels, with comparable EBITA estimated between EUR 14.5−16.0 million. The third quarter saw a 5% increase in order intake compared to the previous quarter, with significant growth in the Mobility, Display, and Solar segment compensating for a decline in the Architecture segment. Net sales increased by 4% to EUR 55.4 million, and profitability improved with a 7% rise in comparable EBITA. Glaston is transferring production from Switzerland to China to enhance efficiency, resulting in workforce reductions in Switzerland. CEO Toni Laaksonen noted positive feedback on Glaston's technology and innovations, and the company plans organizational changes to boost strategy execution and service capabilities. Market activity is expected to remain slow in the final quarter, with a focus on securing order intake and project deliveries. An analyst and press meeting will present the financial results. Glaston is a leader in glass processing technology, operating globally with its shares listed on Nasdaq Helsinki.
