Full Year 2024 Stabilus SE Earnings Call Transcript

The following is excerpted from the question-and-answer section of the transcript.

Question: Akshat Kacker - JP Morgan - Analyst : Good morning Akshat from JP Morgan. Three questions from my side, please. The first one on the cost actions across the company you mentioned in the presentation that you have in intensified these measures. Could you just give us more details in terms of what's planned for the upcoming year across Europe and North America? It'd be helpful if you could quantify this for us, either in terms of a particular gross amount or net EUR amount that you're targeting in terms of cost optimization. That would be helpful. Thank you. That's the first one. The second one is on the US elections and your current thinking on what a second Trump presidency would mean for your North American business, both in terms of growth opportunities, but also the margin profile because when I look back the last time around the revised NAFTA agreement resulted in inflationary pressures for the sector. But on the other side, you also did see some pre buys of solar dampers in your industrial business. So just interested in your thoughts around what could the new presidency mean this time around? And and the last question is on APAC powerise, good to see the business returning to double digit growth again in Q4. Could you just give us more details on the trends that you're seeing in China currently? And do you still expect the powerized business to grow by a double digit percentage in F 525 please? Thank you.

Question: Akshat Kacker - JP Morgan - Analyst : The next was very detailed. Thank you.
