1.b. Last Insights on MXHN

The recent 3-month performance of MAX Automation SE was negatively impacted by a decline in revenue, with a 7.9% year-over-year decrease in full-year 2024 results. The company's revenue fell to €367.4m, likely due to market pressures and a slowdown in demand. Additionally, the European market's volatility, triggered by higher-than-expected U.S. trade tariffs, has led to a sharp decline in major stock indexes, including an 8.44% drop in the STOXX Europe 600 Index. This broader market uncertainty has likely contributed to MAX Automation's recent performance.
