拜耳作物科学表示，由于巴西作物保护产品的渠道库存水平意外偏高，该公司正在下调 2017 财年的利润预期。
“Despite an encouraging start to the year and continued good growth momentum, Bayer’s Crop Science Division will have to adjust its business forecast for fiscal 2017 … Bayer will be working with its customers to initiate measures aimed at normalizing the situation. This will have a one-time effect of EUR 300 million to EUR 400 million on earnings (EBITDA before special items) for the full year 2017. Appropriate accounting measures are already being taken in the second quarter.”
总部位于德国的拜耳还预计收益将受到不利货币发展的额外影响。
在此背景下，拜耳表示将调整其对作物科学和消费者健康部门的全年销售和收益预测。这也将导致对集团销售和盈利指标的预测进行调整。
