MILAN (Reuters) - Italian vaccine vial maker Stevanato on Tuesday
slightly improved its guidance on full-year results after reporting
a 37% increase in third quarter revenue.
The family-controlled group, which listed on the New York Stock
Exchange in July, said it now expects full-year sales to be between
825-835 million euros ($953-$965 million), up from the 820-830
million euro range it forecast in August.
The company also raised the lower end of its expectations for both
core profits and adjusted diluted earnings per share(EPS),
indicating it now sees adjusted EBITDA to reach at least 214 million
euros and adjusted diluted EPS to be at least 0.45 euros, up from
212 million euros and 0.43 euros respectively.
