PRESS RELEASE OF 15 JULY 2021

THE PERROT DUVAL GROUP TEMPORARILY SUFFERS THE CONSEQUENCES OF COVID

Automation specialist the Perrot Duval Group (Perrot Duval Holding S.A.) generated sales of 7,0 million CHF (CHF 32.4 million as of April 30, 2020, including 8 months of Infranor activities, sold on January 6, 2020) for the 2020/21 financial year (ended on 30 April 2021), while the Group's loss after taxes was 1,9 million CHF (profit of 2,4 million CHF as at 30 April 2020). Deferrals of customer deliveries, driven by multiple anti-Covid measures, in fiscal year 2020/21 will favorably affect the new fiscal year ending April 30, 2022. In view of the good health of the group, Perrot Duval Holding S.A. will propose the payment of a dividend at the General Meeting of Shareholders on September 23, 2021.

The Füll Division, which specialises in designing and manufacturing fully automated standard and customised dispensing and storage systems for liquids and pastes, saw its sales decrease from CHF 9.4 million to CHF 7.0 million (- 25.4%) during the financial year 2020/21. It has been particularly affected by Covid, although it has been strengthened by the takeover, as of March 1, 2021, of the activities and personnel of the Lab Systems-EAS entity of Syntegon Technology GmbH (Germany), formerly Bosch Packaging Technology.

The company will provide final figures, detailed information on the 2020/21 financial year as well as its comments on current business performance together with the presentation of its balance sheet on 26 August 2021.
