  • Revenues significantly increased in 9M2020 to reach 339.4 €m (122.7 €m in 3Q2020) in line with the expected ramp-up driven by the execution of manufacturing projects in the backlog.
  • In quarterly terms, remarkable increase compared to 2Q2020 as a result of:
    1. Operational measures successfully implemented to normalize manufacturing pace.
    2. A slight activity increase in al installed bases except in Saudi Arabia where fleet is still out of service.
  • As a result, business performance is gradually getting back to normalized level of activity. However, maintenance business line is still significantly impacted and full resume of operations will be linked to mobility measures, which as of today still leaves room for significant uncertainty.

  • Adjusted EBITDA margins recovery in 3Q2020 (from -0,1% to 6.5%) confirms the strong capacity of the business to recover normalized profitability once 1) services business rapidly react to higher levels of interurban mobility and 2) execution of high quality manufacturing projects upturns.
  • In addition, during the period Talgo designed and implemented noteworthy contingency plans and significant cost-cutting measures aimed to adapt the costs base to the current adverse scenario.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(2) in 9M2020 decreased to 22.6 €m (6.7% margin) dragged by:
  1. Cost overruns in manufacturing projects due to supply chain disruptions and identified lower productivity in 2Q2020. However, such disruptions were successfully mitigated during 2Q/3Q2020.
    1. Maintenance services significantly impacted in the period given the lower demand registered due to force majeure (COVID-19).
  1. "COVID impact" is a theoretical simulation based on the Adjusted EBITDA margin guidance provided in February 2020 (16,5% mg), subsequently withdrawn in march 2020 due to COVID-19 context

Final remarks and outlook

  • Strict packages of measures and protocols aimed to protect employees remain as first priority of the company at this stage
  • 9M2020 results confirm Talgo's reliable capacity to successfully adapt its cost structure to adverse situations
  • Resilient order book at historical highest levels with high quality projects ensures high workload and revenues over the following years
  • Consistent vocation of European and global authorities to enhance and encourage investments in rail as most environmental friendly travel mode
  • The company is proactively working on several projects that could be financed by the EU Recovery Fund (Next Generation EU)
  • Strong balance sheet with limited short and medium term financial debt maturities and over 150 €m of available credit lines to provide surplus liquidity
  • Lack of visibility over mobility measures and its impact on demand for rail services still limits company capacity to provide guidance for years 2020 and 2021
