Fourth quarter 2020-2021
revenue
With revenue of €242.4 million,
the fourth quarter of 2020-2021 saw growth of 5.5%
despite an unfavorable comparison base linked to the strong
recovery in industry and gardening in the fourth quarter of 2020.
At comparable foreign exchange rates and perimeter, billings for
the quarter were up 5.0% at €241.2 million. Foreign exchange rates
negatively impacted revenue by €1.2 million. Despite the supply and
logistics issues affecting all our businesses, the Group managed to
grow sales in this challenging global environment.
-
AGRICULTURAL SPRAYING, revenue of €88.9 million, up €12.5
million (+16.4%).
The business grew thanks to the good
performances in self-propelled sprayers in North America (+10%) and
across all product ranges in Europe (France and Germany in
particular). Rebounds by the various brands in Asia-Pacific also
helped sustain revenue growth. However, the shortage of electronic
components disrupted factories to a greater extent than in Q3,
delaying deliveries by several weeks.
- SUGAR
BEET HARVESTERS, revenue of €71.7 million, up
€11.3 million(+18.8%).
Sales of new machines increased significantly
during the quarter, in France and Germany alike. In addition,
various government subsidy programs continue to drive sales of the
Terra Variant range. Lastly, sales of used machines and spare parts
were fairly stable over the period.
- GARDEN
WATERING AND SPRAYING, revenue of €23.1 million,
down €8.7 million (-27.4%).
The drop in revenue is attributable to several
factors. First, the comparable fourth quarter of 2020 was
exceptionally strong thanks to post-Covid recovery. Second, sales
in the United Kingdom and France were down in August/September, as
the summer was not as dry as previous ones. Also, raw material
shortages and logistics issues disrupted production and
deliveries.
-
INDUSTRY, revenue of €58.7 million, down €2.5 million
(-4.1%).
Despite an unfavorable comparison base due to
the strong recovery in the fourth quarter of 2020, billings in the
industrial spraying and technical hoses business remained solid,
sustained by Asia despite a modest dip in Europe and North America.
The introduction of new product ranges and diversification,
particularly in the wood industry, helped support sales during the
quarter.
Full-year 2020-21 revenue
Full-year revenue was up 16% at
€876.8 million, including a scope effect of €11
million linked to the acquisition of Intec in January 2020 and
negative foreign exchange rate effects essentially related to the
US dollar (-€11.6 million).
Government subsidies and the strong trend in
agricultural commodity prices have encouraged farmers to invest in
replacing agricultural machinery in all geographical areas where
our brands operate. Meanwhile, higher input prices, particularly
for steel and transport, made it necessary to adjust our pricing
policy. Supply chains continue to be disrupted by components
shortages requiring production to be adapted accordingly, although
delays in deliveries are not critical.
Billings for the year were up sharply, as
anticipated in previous quarters. Sugar beet harvester volumes
increased significantly over the year, as did those of Terra
Variant in liquid manure spreading and anaerobic digestion, thanks
to compelling commercial initiatives. Lastly, sugar beet prices
were slightly more favorable in 2021 than in 2020.
- GARDEN
WATERING AND SPRAYING
The good momentum behind our exceptional year in
2020, particularly in the fourth quarter, continued throughout
2021, with sales spread more evenly than in 2020, and a very strong
first half. Continued increases in raw material prices and
logistics issues required us to adjust our pricing. Our service
rate nevertheless remained at an acceptable level.
Underlying markets (automotive, furniture,
construction, industry) benefited from the economic recovery during
the year. However, momentum continues to differ between markets,
especially in the automotive industry. Our sales of technical hoses
are increasing despite difficulties in sourcing plastics.

- GARDEN
WATERING AND SPRAYING
- Business should
be sustained at the beginning of the year at least due to
distributors’ concerns about plastic shortages.
