(AWP Alliance News) - Gurit Holding AG posted first-half net sales of CHF 153.9 million, down 0.7% from a year earlier, as it swung to a net profit attributable to shareholders of CHF 9 million, or CHF 1.92 per share. Operating result turned positive at CHF 17.8 million, lifting the operating margin to 11.6% from -35.4% a year earlier.

Free cash flow improved to CHF -0.1 million from CHF -13.2 million, helped by stronger profitability and no restructuring-related cash outflows. The board appointed Viktor Bernhardt as permanent group CEO and said it will start an immediate search for a group CFO. Gurit raised full-year guidance for net sales growth to 9%-11% at constant exchange rates and lifted its adjusted operating profit margin view to around 10%, citing geopolitical, supply-chain and tariff risks.
