Lalique Group<\/strong>, the Swiss group specializing in the creation, development, marketing and distribution of crystal products worldwide, yesterday released its provisional unaudited key figures for fiscal 2022.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n After encouraging results in 2021, Lalique Group announced, without further details, a strong overall increase in sales in fiscal 2022.<\/strong> This is due to contributions from all business areas, which have recorded double-digit growth rates.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As a result, the Lalique Group’s operating income increased by about 20% to 170 million euros<\/strong>. This figure includes one-time income of 1.7 million euros<\/strong> generated in the first half of 2022 in connection with a closed court case.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The operating result (EBIT), on the other hand, rose to around 13.2 million euros in 2022<\/strong>, compared with 9.6 million euros in the previous year. The EBIT margin (gross return) thus increases from 6.8% to 7.7%<\/strong>. Excluding the extraordinary income of 1.7 million euros, the Lalique Group recorded an increase in EBIT in fiscal year 2022 of approximately 19%<\/strong>, amounting to approximately 11.5 million euros, with an EBIT margin of approximately 6.8%.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n There was a change in expenses, reflecting “the development of the business, the re-intensification of marketing and distribution activities as well as the partial reduction of the cost base in the previous year due to containment-related closures”<\/em>, the group said in a statement.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The group also strengthened its production capacity<\/strong> by investing in a more efficient and powerful furnace for the crystal factory, and thus increased the resources allocated to cold crystal manufacturing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Personnel expenses<\/strong> amounted to around 42 million euros<\/strong>, an increase of around 22% compared with the previous year. Other operating expenses rose by around 28%<\/strong> to approximately 27.8 million euros. Depreciation, amortization and value adjustments increased by approximately 10%<\/strong> to approximately 15.7 million Euro.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n On April 19, 2023<\/strong>, the Lalique Group will publish the final audited financial figures for the year 2022.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Read also >JD.com posts strong results in 2022<\/a><\/p>\nExpansion of production capacity<\/h2>\n
