Munters Group AB: Exceptional demand - external headwinds currently affecting profitability
About this update from Munters Group Ab
STOCKHOLM, July 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- April – June CEO comments We delivered exceptionally strong order intake in the quarter, demonstrating the strength of our offering and the continued high level of activity in our key markets. However, profitability is currently affected by the planned ramp-up of chiller production in the US as well as external factors, including delays in component deliveries and continued tariff-related effects. These factors do not change our view of the underlying strength of the business or our long-term strategic direction. We maintain our business outlook, expecting improved profitability in the coming six months, supported by continued progress across the Group. Strong demand while executing according to plan Demand remained strong across the Group. DCT once again delivered strong order intake, supported by several project awards during the quarter. As is typical in this business, the timing of such projects may vary between quarters, while the underlying level of customer activity remains strong. AirTech reported strong demand across several markets, supported by an exceptional increase in the Components segment as customers secured supply following temporary disruptions in industry capacity. FoodTech reported lower order intake in both controllers and software, mainly reflecting the timing of software projects and softer investment activity in selected end-markets this quarter, while the underlying growth drivers remain strong.
