TRADING UPDATE FOR THE NINE MONTHS TO SEPTEMBER 2023: RESILIENT PERFORMANCE IN
CHALLENGING MARKETS; PROFIT GUIDANCE FOR FY2023

Bekaert has delivered a resilient performance in the first nine months of 2023,
despite many of our end markets remaining challenging. Sales of € 3 355 million
(-13% against the same period in 2022) were lower in this period, as
anticipated, from the reversal of raw material cost inflation and the
normalization of energy surcharges in previous periods, and lower volumes,
partially offset by a stronger mix. 

Bekaert continues to benefit from the execution of its strategy, with business
selection driving price and mix improvements, alongside excellent cash
conversion and cost discipline. The group is also making good progress in
developing its new growth platforms and with the completion of the disposal of
the Steel Wire Solutions businesses in Chile and Peru, Bekaert continues its
repositioning into markets with higher growth and margin.

HALF YEAR RESULTS: ANOTHER PERIOD OF STRATEGIC PROGRESS AND FINANCIAL RESILIENCE
IN DIFFICULT MARKETS

Sales at € 2.3 billion • EBITu of € 226 million (margin 9.7%) • Free Cash Flow
of € 80m • ROCE 20.5% • Net debt/EBITDAu of 0.8x

Bekaert delivered another period of robust profitability and cash flows, and has
addressed pro-actively weaker conditions in many of its end markets. Despite
lower volumes, the core businesses continue to benefit from the successful
execution of Bekaert’s strategy, alongside swift actions in the period to
maintain pricing discipline and cost efficiencies. Whilst looking beyond, the
repositioning to target new opportunities from the energy transition and
decarbonization trends continues, with growing demand in a range of new
products.
