Profit warning: Kamux lowers its full-year 2022 financial guidance

Profit warning: Kamux lowers its full-year 2022 financial guidance

Kamux lowers its full-year 2022 guidance on revenue and operating profit. The rationale for updating the outlook is the weakened consumer confidence caused by the war in Ukraine and its effects. This has led to a stronger than anticipated contraction in the demand for used cars in all Kamux's operating countries from March 2022 onwards. The weakened demand and the measures taken to address the inventory to match the current demand have also had a negative impact on Kamux's profitability.

Kamux's updated outlook for 2022 is as follows:

In 2022, Kamux expects its revenue to be over EUR 1,000 million. The company expects its adjusted operating profit to be approximately EUR 23-30 million.

Previously, Kamux expected its revenue to be at least EUR 1,100 million and adjusted operating profit to increase from the previous year.
