First half 2018 highlights:
Jean-Marc Germain, Constellium’s Chief Executive Officer said, “Constellium delivered strong results in the second quarter. Each business unit reported record quarterly Adjusted EBITDA. Healthy end market demand, solid operational performance, and a focus on reducing costs through Project 2019 contributed to our results. While global trade remains a source of uncertainty, we are optimistic about our prospects for the remainder of the year and are therefore increasing our Adjusted EBITDA growth guidance to a range of 11% to 13%.”
Mr. Germain continued, “Our positive momentum continues to build. Given our performance and current outlook, we now expect over €500 million of Adjusted EBITDA in 2019, which is one year ahead of our previous guidance of 2020. Our focus remains on executing on our strategy and increasing value for our shareholders.”
