Ebit suffers high feedstock costs
In H1 2011, Finnish packaging specialist Huhtamaki (Espoo; www.huhtamaki.com) achieved 5% of year-on-year exchange rate-adjusted growth, reaching EUR 1 bn. However, at the same time Ebit dropped by EUR 6m, down to EUR 67m – a decline Huhtamaki blames primarily on high feedstock prices. The Finnish group had divested its European Rigid Consumer Goods Plastic division in 2010 – see Plasteurope.com of 05.01.2011 – focusing on the Flexible Packaging, Films, North America, Moulded Fibre and Foodservice businesses instead.
