Cloetta AB interim report Q1: January – March 2022

Cloetta is reporting another quarter of strong growth in Branded packaged products and continued improved profitability in Pick & mix. While our price increases took effect during the first quarter, the drastically rising input costs seen in 2022 only started to impact us towards the end of the quarter.

  • Sales of Branded packaged products increased organically by 2.5 per cent during the quarter.
  • Sales of Pick & mix increased organically by 23.8 per cent during the quarter.
  • Operating profit amounted to SEK 154m (103). Operating profit, adjusted for items affecting comparability, amounted to SEK 158m (107).
  • Operating profit, adjusted, of Branded packaged products amounted to SEK 149m (131).
  • Operating profit, adjusted, of Pick & mix amounted to SEK 9m (-24).
  • Profit for the period amounted to SEK 131m (103), which equates to basic and diluted earnings per share of SEK 0.46 (0.36).
  • Cash flow from operating activities was SEK 27m (54).
