The EBIT margin (in terms of total operating revenue) was around 17.2% (previous year: 10.9%).

The positive trend in sales and earnings also continued on a quarterly basis, making Q4 2020 the most successful fourth quarter in the company's history.

2022 outlook

Management is very positive about 2022. Demand for environmentally-friendly insulation material and construction products continues to be high and the underlying regulatory conditions support further growth. What is more, in the opinion of the company's management, STEICO is the only manufacturer of wood-fibre insulation materials which will increase capacity significantly in 2022.

To the extent that the prevailing growth in costs does not result in any further negative effects, the Board of Directors believes that revenues will grow by around 15% with an EBIT margin of between 13% and 15% (in terms of total operating revenue).
