Aurubis(NDA GY) Guides initial FY18/19 EBT to be moderately lower y/y (implies €278.8-311.3M v €330Me)
The main reasons for this deviation are various unscheduled shutdowns at the Hamburg, Lünen, and Pirdop sites in Q1 of fiscal year 2018/19, which is currently underway.
Aurubis AG's first quarter, which is generally weaker due to seasonal factors, will be additionally strained as a result.
