Throughout 2021, the sales development in the Semiconductor and Emerging Technology market segment was especially dynamic with sales of EUR 293.4 million and a growth of 35.7 percent. In addition, sales in the Analytics, Industry and R&D market segment grew considerably by 18.6 percent to EUR 281.9 million compared to the previous year (first nine months 2020: Semiconductor and Emerging Technology EUR 216.2 million; Analytics, Industry and R&D EUR 237.7 million). The preliminary first nine months 2021 operating result (EBIT) amounted to EUR 74.0 million and increased by 107.3 percent compared to the previous year period (first nine months 2020: EUR 35.7 million). The EBIT margin was at 12.9 percent (first nine months 2020: 7.9 percent). For the first nine months 2021, the order intake was EUR 690.8 million, a record level for Pfeiffer Vacuum, and an increase of 49.8 percent from the previous year (first nine months 2020: EUR 461.3 million).

The EBIT margin performance is expected to be between 12.0 and 13.0 percent, unchanged from the previous expectations, and significantly improve from the same period in 2020 (fiscal year 2020: sales EUR 618.7 million; EBIT margin 7.3 percent).
