DSV updates the market saying that based on the preliminary earnings estimates for the first nine months of 2024 and expectations for the rest of the year, it is narrowing the full-year Ebit guidance for 2024 as follows:
“EBIT before special items is now expected to be in the range of DKK 16,000-17,000 million (previously DKK 15,500-17,000 million).”
Q3 24 interims are expected on 23 October.
In a separate announcement, the Danish forwarder said it plans to “raise DKK 37.3 billion [€5bn] through the issuance of new shares in an underwritten directed issue and private placement to certain institutional and professional investors through an accelerated bookbuilding process”.
