The S&P Global Poland Manufacturing PMI dropped to 48.2 in December 2024, down from 48.9 in November, marking the sharpest decline in manufacturing conditions since August. The deeper downturn was driven by steeper drops in output and input inventories. New orders also continued to contract, extending the record downturn that began in March 2022, though the rate of decline slowed to its weakest pace in over a year, as domestic demand showed signs of recovery. Export orders fell at the fastest rate in three months, with Germany identified as a key source of weakness. On a positive note, employment rose for the third consecutive month, reflecting optimism for higher future output. Price pressures remained subdued, with average input prices falling at the second-fastest rate of the year, while output prices were cut for the seventh consecutive month. Looking ahead, business confidence rebounded, but challenges remain, including ongoing supply chain pressures and weak external demand. source: S&P Global

Poland Manufacturing PMI
The S&P Global Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index measures the performance of the manufacturing sector and is derived from a survey of 200 manufacturing companies. The Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index is based on five individual indexes with the following weights: New Orders (30 percent), Output (25 percent), Employment (20 percent), Suppliers’ Delivery Times (15 percent) and Stock of Items Purchased (10 percent), with the Delivery Times index inverted so that it moves in a comparable direction. A reading above 50 indicates an expansion of the manufacturing sector compared to the previous month; below 50 represents a contraction; while 50 indicates no change.

Polish Manufacturing Contraction Deepens
The S&P Global Poland Manufacturing PMI fell to 48.9 in November 2024, down from 49.2 in October and below the expected 49. This decline reflected sharper drops in new orders, the steepest in three months, while export orders also continued to fall due to weak European demand, particularly from Germany. Similarly, output declined again, reversing the brief increase seen in October. Consequently, firms continued to reduce purchasing activity, extending the survey-record downturn to two and a half years. Despite these challenges, employment rose for the second consecutive month, with job creation at its strongest since February 2022. On the pricing front, input costs fell at their fastest rate since October 2023, and output prices saw the steepest cut this year due to intense price competition. Looking ahead, business confidence weakened, with the 12-month outlook reaching its lowest point since December 2022 amid geopolitical and economic concerns.

Polish Manufacturing Nears Stabilization
The S&P Global Poland Manufacturing PMI rose to 49.2 in October 2024, up from 48.6 in September and exceeding forecasts of 48.4. This reading marked the fourth consecutive month of improvement and the highest level since April 2022, indicating a near-stabilization in the sector. This shift was driven by renewed growth in output, ending a record 29-month decline. Employment also grew for the first time in over two and a half years, following the longest stretch of job shedding since 2004. However, new orders continued to fall, extending a 32-month contraction trend, with the pace of decline accelerating for the first time in five months. On the price front, October saw the sharpest drop in input costs since October 2023, while output charges declined at the fastest pace in seven months. Looking forward, manufacturers remain cautious, with 12-month outlook optimism below the long-term trend, largely due to concerns over weaknesses in the German economy and the automotive sector.
