Strong profitable growth, generating free cash flow.
Major acquisitions and strategic investments
towards clean and connected mobility
« We are satisfied with what we have accomplished in 2022 in an unprecedented economic and geopolitical context. Thanks to Plastic Omnium’s operating and financial profile, we were able to successfully implement our strategic roadmap, make a number of technological shifts and secure strong growth drivers and significant future value creation. The performance and leadership of our traditional activities remain the cornerstone enabling the diversification of Plastic Omnium’s portfolio. Supported by its historical position in exterior automotive parts and fuel systems, the Group now has three new activities (lighting, electrification and hydrogen), enabling it to meet the sector’s challenges, both in individual and heavy mobility. Some of this new expertise has come from the major acquisitions completed by our Group during the year. We have considerable experience in integrating new activities and will invest the necessary efforts to ensure these activities achieve profitability levels in line with those of the Group. Finally, with our new software entity (OP’nSoft) we are well positioned at the center of the challenges facing embedded software. All this would not have been possible without competent and committed teams and I would like to take this opportunity to warmly thank them. »
