Scandi Standard AB (publ.) (“Scandi Standard” or the “Group”) announces new financial targets for the period until 2027.

  • Organic growth of 5-7% p.a.
  • EBIT margin of more than 6%
  • Return on capital employed of more than 15%

During this period, Scandi Standard aims to gradually expand EBIT/kg (Grill weight) to a level over SEK 3, equivalent to an EBIT margin of more than 6% and a return on capital employed of more than 15%. Corresponding EBIT/kg YTD has been SEK 1.75.

Underlying top line growth is expected to be driven by a disciplined growth in line with the market for Ready-to-cook, strong recovery and growth in Ready-to-eat and improved product mix and sales performance across the Group.

The sustainability targets for 2030 remain unchanged.

  • 50% reduction in CO2 emissions in own operations (scope 1 and 2) and in the value chain (scope 3)
  • <1% of flocks being treated with antibiotics.
  • LTIFR <15

Scandi Standard expects to maintain dividends around 60% of net income and a leverage ratio below 2.5x (NIBD/EBITDA).

“Having successfully recovered earnings after a tough period of inflation, I am looking forward to taking Scandi Standard to the next level. Together with my team I have developed a sound plan to materially expand margins in combination with robust growth of our business. I look forward to sharing these plans at our Capital Markets Day tomorrow”, says Jonas Tunestål, CEO of Scandi Standard.
