Description
(AWP Alliance News) - Barry Callebaut forecast a full-year volume decline of around 1% for fiscal 2025/26, lifting its expectation to the upper end of its prior range as volumes returned to growth in the third quarter. For the first nine months, group volume fell 2.8% to 1,557,239 tonnes, while sales revenue slid 9.5% in local currencies to CHF 9.6 billion.
The chocolatier maintained guidance for a mid-teens drop in recurring EBIT in local currencies. It still targets net debt to recurring EBITDA of below 3x, based on a working cocoa bean price assumption of about GBP 3,000.
