百樂嘉利寶股價暴跌15%,因中期銷售下滑,2026財年獲利前景黯淡

-- 受需求疲軟、北美供應中斷以及市場產能過剩等因素影響,瑞士巧克力製造商百樂嘉利寶(Barry Callebaut,股票代碼:BARN.SW)股價週四早盤下跌9%,原因是市場需求疲軟、供應中斷以及競爭激烈的產能過剩導致其中期銷量和營業利潤下滑,迫使該公司下調至2026年的盈利預期收益了2026年。 截至2月28日的六個月,集團總銷量年減6.9%至1,010,247噸,主要受不利市場因素影響。其中,全球巧克力銷量下降5.1%,全球可可銷量下降14.3%。最終,這家巧克力和可可製品公司的營收從去年同期的72.9億瑞士法郎驟降至67.5億瑞士法郎。 營業利潤(息稅前利潤,EBIT)下滑2.2%至2.894億瑞士法郎,經常性息稅前利潤下滑5.7%至3.109億瑞士法郎。儘管如此,由於所得稅支出減少,歸屬於巴里公司股東的淨利從去年的3,210萬瑞士法郎大幅成長至8,940萬瑞士法郎。此外,可可豆價格「大幅快速」下跌,加上公司採取營運措施減少營運資本,使得公司淨債務從61.1億瑞士法郎降至36億瑞士法郎,從而降低了融資成本。 巴里公司計劃優先恢復銷量並引領市場重回成長軌道,因此上調了2026財年的銷售預期,預計銷量將下降1%至3%,而非1月21日預測的個位數百分比降幅。同時,巴里公司警告稱,未來12個月以當地貨幣計算的經常性息稅前利潤(EBIT)將出現15%左右的萎縮,獲利前景可能受到中東地區動盪局勢的影響。 此前,百樂嘉利寶預計經常性息稅前利潤(EBIT)將實現個位數低至中等增長,而以當地貨幣計算的經常性稅前利潤將實現兩位數增長。在此背景下,公司指出,必須採取行動才能實現持續獲利成長。雖然具體細節將於6月公佈,但百樂嘉利寶計畫專注於關鍵市場和細分領域,重新打造清晰的高端品牌形象,並過渡到一支「規模更小、更注重商業運營」的領導團隊。 「回顧我在百樂嘉利寶的頭幾個月,我們顯然擁有無可比擬的市場地位、深厚的專業知識和巨大的增長潛力。與此同時,在經歷了行業動盪和轉型之後,我們還有大量工作要做,以重振公司。我們需要恢復基本面,提升服務水平,並賦能我們的區域業務,」首席執行官海因·舒馬赫表示。
