全球最大的雪茄公司之一，斯堪的纳维亚烟草集团第二季度的营收有所增加，利润同比保持不变。

日前，STG发布了第二季度财报。营业收入为24亿丹麦克朗，折合3.523亿美元。而2023年同期是22亿丹麦克朗，营收同比增长了9.1%。

二季度净利润为2.97亿丹麦克朗，折合4420万美元，和去年二季度的3.04亿丹麦克朗几乎持平。

该公司在一份声明中表示，手工雪茄业务的增长是公司营收增加的关键因素之一。STG旗下的手工雪茄品牌很多，比较知名的包括麦克纽杜、CAO以及非古版本的帕特加斯、好友、古巴荣耀、潘趣。

集团首席执行官Niels Frederiksen在声明中表示，二季度的财务表现有力的支持了我们对全年的预期。过去几个月，我们采取了实质性措施来执行我们的战略，并在充满挑战的市场里保护我们的财务业绩。

Sales were up and profits were largely unchanged in the second quarter for Scandinavian Tobacco Group, one of the world’s largest cigar companies. STG reported net sales of 2.4 billion Danish kroner ($352.3 million) in the second quarter of 2024, up 9.1 percent from the 2.2 billion kroner ($331.3 million) in the same period for 2023.

Net profits for the second quarter of 2024 were 297 million kroner ($44.2 million), almost identical to the 304 million ($45.3 million) earned in Q2 of 2023.

Handmade cigars were one of the key factors driving the growth, the company said in a statement. STG’s handmade library is extensive, including such well-known brands as Macanudo, CAO and the non-Cuban versions of Partagas, Hoyo de Monterrey, La Gloria Cubana and Punch. 

“The second quarter financial performance supports our expectation for the full year,” said CEO Niels Frederiksen in a statement. “During the past months, we have taken material steps in executing our strategy and to safeguard our financial performance in challenging markets.”
