Raised outlook for full-year 2020
Sensirion adjusts its outlook for the financial year 2020 and now expects revenue of CHF 200-240 million (previously CHF 178-188 million) and an improved adjusted EBITDA margin with a stable gross margin.
For the first half of 2020, Sensirion expects revenue of approximately CHF 113 million (prior-year period CHF 84 million), of which approximately CHF 23 million (prior-year period CHF 3 million) will come from the ventilator business. More detailed information and market updates will be provided when the half-year report is published on 19 August 2020.
Ramp-ups of projects with new products, outlook for H2 2020 uncertain
In the first half of 2020, various positive market developments became apparent. For the new PM2.5- and CO₂- sensor product families, ramp-ups from various new projects at the beginning of the year were stronger than expected despite COVID-19. The existing business with humidity, gas and liquid flow sensors showed in the automotive industry first signs of COVID-19-related slowdowns after a strong first quarter. All other markets (industrial, medical, consumer), however, are proving to be quite robust so far. This is partly due to increased inventory build-up by key customers. The outlook for the second half of the year remains volatile and difficult to predict for both the new and existing product families. The uncertainty is reflected in the range of the updated outlook for the full year 2020.
Increased demand for gas flow sensors for ventilators in H1 2020
The spread of COVID-19 quickly resulted in a sharp increase in the worldwide demand for ventilators. With a substantial market share for flow sensors in ventilators, Sensirion feels especially committed to be able to respond to this spontaneous demand as agile as possible and thus make a significant contribution to mitigating the negative consequences of the pandemic. A dedicated task force is working intensively to increase production capacities by a factor of 8-10 within a few weeks. Because of great efforts, the capacity adjustment to date has been mastered. Delivery is expected to peak in the second and third quarters. The further development is currently uncertain and depends heavily on the future course of the pandemic. At present, Sensirion expects demand to normalize from the beginning of 2021.
Strategy and mid-term growth potential confirmed
The long-term market trends as well as Sensirion’s technologies and product pipeline remain unchanged and strong, as the successful ramp-ups of the past months have shown. Despite COVID-19-related restrictions in recent months, all strategic development projects are running as planned. Therefore, Sensirion confirms the good mid- and long-term growth prospects. This is additionally supported by Sensirion’s diversification by market and region.
