Extraordinary growth

For Endress+Hauser, 2022 was characterized by strong growth worldwide. A quarter of the sales companies generated a revenue increase of more than 30 percent. Even considering exchange rate effects and price increases, this performance is extraordinary. And more remarkable still is that we expect double-digit growth in 2023 as well, underpinned by a record volume of orders in hand and consistently good volumes of incoming orders. Although we also improved our operating profit in 2022, income came in below the previous year’s figures. Losses from our financial investments, foreign exchange losses and higher currency hedging costs negatively impacted our income statement. Russia’s war on Ukraine is also casting a shadow on our review. Because of the sanctions, we are withdrawing from the Russian market – 170 of our people are losing their jobs.
