Trading update - 20% sales growth (1)
Coats Group plc ('Coats,' the 'Company' or the 'Group'), the world's leading industrial thread manufacturer, today announces a trading update for the period 1 January 2022 to 30 April 2022 ("the period"), ahead of its Annual General Meeting later today.
Trading Update
-- Strong sales momentum through the first four months of the year -- Price and productivity gains offsetting inflationary pressure to support margins -- Strategic projects, announced alongside FY21 results, have commenced and are on track -- Strong start to the year however we remain vigilant of potential macro-economic conditions Revenue vs 2021 Reported CER Group 16% 20% Apparel & Footwear 17% 21% Performance Materials 11% 16%
All following references are on an CER basis.
Group sales for the period grew 20% year-on-year.
Apparel and Footwear: Very strong volume growth in thread driven by industry inventory restocking, buffer buying to support supply chain disruption and continued underlying market recovery along with strong pricing/mix to offset inflationary pressures, resulted in sales growth of 21% for the division.
Performance Materials: Growth of 16% was driven by strong pricing and double digit growth in both Personal Protection and Composites. We have seen strong growth across all three regions (Asia, EMEA, Americas).
Pricing and productivity actions have been successfully implemented and continue to offset inflationary pressures in the supply chain which supported margin progression across both divisions.
In March, we announced a number of strategic projects to improve margins by optimising the footprint, portfolio and improving the overall cost base efficiency . These strategic projects are now underway and on track. We will provide an update as part of our Half Year results.
We continue to focus on executing our plans in the current macro-economic conditions. Price leadership, productivity programmes and strategic projects underpin our performance. Our outlook for the year remains unchanged.
