Core sales rose by 1.8 percent to 13.7 billion Swiss francs, as the Group, which specializes in airport stores and freeway service stations, announced on Wednesday. Operating profit (core EBITDA) was 4.5 percent higher at 1.32 billion. The corresponding margin rose from 9.4 percent to 9.7 percent.

Core net profit remained at 645 million. This is 17 percent more than in the previous year. Shareholders can look forward to a 15 centime higher dividend of CHF 1.15 per share.

Despite the war in Iran, the company believes it is on track with its strategy until 2027. Until then, Avolta continues to expect sales growth of 5 to 7 percent per year at constant exchange rates. At the same time, the core EBITDA margin is expected to increase by 20 to 40 basis points annually.
