Based on preliminary figures for the total year 2007, both sales and
profits exceeded management expectations. While sales rose by 125% from
TEUR 20,338 to TEUR 45,673, the EBIT climbed by 158% from TEUR 2,420 to
TEUR 6,234. It is noteworthy that these results were achieved despite of
negative currency exchange influences both for the US dollar and the
British pound as well as goodwill write-offs amounting to TEUR 800. Based
on these preliminary figures, management plans to recommend a 50% dividend
increase from EUR 0.20 to EUR 0.30 per share at the 2008 shareholder
meeting.
Also for 2008 management expects the positive trend both for sales and
profits to continue. Several measures such as new plants, increase of
production capacities in existing plants as well as solid acquisition plans
should lead to extraordinary growth.
