Regulatory press release

Bulten Q1 operating earnings burdened by anti-dumping duties, a decision the company intends to appeal

Bulten’s operating earnings for Q1 2025 are negatively affected by costs of SEK 45 million. These are linked to a decision by the Swedish Customs Service regarding anti-dumping duties on fasteners/fastener materials imported from China to the EU between 2022 and 2024. However, Bulten intends to appeal the Customs Service decision relating to SEK 35 million of the SEK 45 million through the Administrative Court.

Bulten and the company’s lawyers believe there is a strong likelihood of having the decision on the anti-dumping duty of SEK 35 million reviewed and overturned by the Administrative Court, and thus potentially of having the amount refunded after the current calendar year. This is based on Bulten’s claim that these imports do not concern finished fasteners, but items with low added value that should not be classified as fasteners subject to EU customs duties on imported fasteners from China.

Note that the above mentioned imports are related to previous flows that Bulten had between 2022 and 2024, when the company had major temporary capacity disruptions.

The SEK 45 million will impact cash flow for the second quarter.

Bulten will release its full Q1 interim report on April 28.
