SUSS anticipates higher-than-expected FY25 sales, shares climb

Investing.com -- SUSS, a leading technology company, has projected its fiscal year 2025 (FY25) sales to fall within the range of €470-510 million. This estimation is 7.7% higher than the consensus.

Following this announcement, the company’s shares experienced a 1.4% increase.

The anticipated 10% sales growth is backed by a robust €428 million order book, the majority of which is expected to be converted into revenue within the year due to enhanced production capacity.

The company’s Advanced Packaging (NYSE:PKG) segment is predicted to grow at a mid-single digit percentage, while Photomask Solutions is expected to see a growth in the range of 10-20%.

SUSS is also forecasting a stable gross margin for FY25, between 39-41%, which is similar to the 40% achieved in fiscal year 2024 (FY24). This is partly due to one-time expenses related to the company’s transition to a new production facility in Taiwan. A

dditionally, an expected increase in administrative costs could lower the EBIT margin to a midpoint of 16%, a slight decrease from 16.8% in FY24.

Financial services firm Jefferies noted, "While the 2025 sales strength is positive, we continue to expect the AI supply chain to loosen by year-end, leading to potential weakness in Advanced Packaging revenues in 2026. This concern is likely to keep the shares range bound."
