Public disclosure of inside information pursuant to Art. 17 MAR

Elmos Semiconductor SE (FSE: ELG) closed fiscal year 2021 very successfully. According to preliminary, unaudited figures, Elmos increased its full-year sales by 38.5% to 322.1 Mio. Euro and achieved an EBIT margin of 18.6% (Sales guidance: 320 ± 5 million Euro; EBIT margin guidance: 17% ± 2 percentage points).

Based on the current orders received and the available wafer capacities or wafer delivery commitments from the foundry partners, Elmos expects sales growth of at least 15% to more than 370 million Euro and an operating EBIT margin of 20% ± 2 percentage points of sales for fiscal year 2022. The anticipated operating EBIT margin for 2022 does not include any effects from a possible closing of the sale of the Elmos wafer fab to Silex Microsystems AB. The expansion of test capacities will be continued in the current year, with Elmos forecasting capital expenditures of around 16% ± 2 percentage points of sales. Despite the high level of capital expenditures and development expenses for future growth, the Company expects to generate a positive operating adjusted free cash flow above the previous year (11.1 million Euro) in fiscal year 2022. The guidance is based on an exchange rate of 1.15 EUR/USD.

In view of the positive business performance, the new business acquired as well as the long-term growth prospects of the semiconductor market, the medium-term EBIT margin target will be increased from 17% to 20% of sales.

Both, the guidance for fiscal year 2022 and the new medium-term EBIT margin target are above market expectations.
