Significant events
- “During the year, the Company experienced a decline in turnover primarily due to reduced sales of Acetamiprid based products. Increased competition from generic products across many of our local operating companies significantly impacted sales of Mospilan SP and Inazuma (both containing Acetamiprid and manufactured by SAE), with turnover decreasing by ",”
- “Additionally, the termination of our back-to-back relationship with Nichino Europe led to a reduction in turnover of €12,200,000.”
- “Market conditions also deteriorated, necessitating a reduction in gross profit margins on our own S-Line products.”
- “On 7th June 2024, Sumitomo Corporation (the Parent) made an investment in S.C. Alcedo S.R.L, increasing its shareholding from 1.73% to 6.39%. As a result, Sumi Agro Europe Limited (the Company) recognised a dilution in its investment of S.C. Alcedo S.R., reducing its shareholding from 98.27% to 93.61%.”
- “On 19th June 2024, S.C. Alcedo S.R.L acquired 100% of Naturevo SRL for a purchase price of €10 million.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
