Schneider Electric SE on Tuesday reported a 12% rise in first-quarter revenue as it benefited from continued demand in its business and markets, and raised its full-year profit target.
The French energy-management group now expects adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and amortization to grow between 14% and 20% organically. This compares with previous guidance of 9% to 15% growth.
Revenue for the year is expected to grow between 8% and 11% organically, Schneider said.
The company generated revenue of 6.53 billion euros ($7.89 billion) for the quarter ended March 31 compared with EUR5.83 billion a year earlier and a consensus of EUR6.17 billion, taken from the company's website and based on 16 analysts' forecasts.
On an organic basis, revenue rose 14%.
"The uncertainty surrounding the rest of 2021 remains, with recent uptick of Covid-19 contagion in specific countries, and potential global supply-chain pressures," Chairman and Chief Executive Jean-Pascal Tricoire said.
However, the board raised full-year guidance to reflect the strong underlying demand trends witnessed in the first quarter.
