Air Liquide SA on Tuesday said it expects currency variations
and energy costs passed through to customers to affect revenue in
the fourth quarter and full-year 2021.
The industrial-gases company said the currency impact is
estimated at around 3% in the 4Q and around negative 1.6% in the
full year on both group and gas-and-services revenue.
The effect of increasing energy costs passed through to
customers is expected to have an impact of around 16% in the 4Q and
between 8% and 8.5%, or above 1.6 billion euros ($1.8 billion), in
the full year on group and gas-and-services revenue.
Air Liquide previously guided for a further increase in
operating margin--which it says it excludes the energy passthrough
impact--and recurring net profit growth at constant exchange rates
in 2021.
