The Palfinger Group achieved the best first 9 months in its history, with sales of €1.8 million and consolidated net income of €90.9 million. These results were driven in particular by sales growth of over 30% in North America, underpinned by strong demand for cranes and forklift-trucks. The economic recovery in the Asia-Pacific region, excluding China, also had a positive impact on order intake. In Europe, inflation and high interest rates had a negative impact on the economic environment, with reduced order intake. The Group expects to achieve sales of €2.4 million in 2023. It is also preparing now for the complex economic environment that lies ahead in 2024.
