Interim report for Q3 2000 - euromicron AG exceeds operational
forecasts
euromicron AG, Frankfurt/Main, an international supplier in the
fiber optics and energy management sectors, continued its outstanding
business development during the first nine months of fiscal year
2000. Sales in particular increased by 29.4% on the same period of
the previous year to DM 241.5 million (previous year: DM 186.6
million). The company increased its income from operations by 80.5%
on 1999 to DM 22.2 million.
This positive operational development has enabled the company to
cover the costs of ongoing restructuring and the investments made in
the course of the company's strategic reorientation. These costs
caused a 8.9% reduction in EBIT as of September 30, 2000 to DM 15.4
million (previous year: DM 16.9 million). The US GAAP consolidated
earnings before income tax (EBT) totaled DM 10.7 million (previous
year: DM 12.3 million). The earnings per share were adjusted in line
with these figures to DM 0.87 (previous year: DM 1.10).
According to euromicron's Managing Board, all of the one-time
charges resulting from the restructuring measures are non-recurring
and will contribute to the company's success in light of the sale of
the energy management companies and interests.
The company's operating earnings in 2000 will be used for this
purpose, allowing the company to push ahead with its aggressive
growth strategy in the fiber optics business area in its three
business units - Components and Assembly, Project Business and Trade
and Services - without this strategy being negatively affected by any
one-time charges.
euromicron AG's customers and shareholders in particular will gain
long-term benefit from the company's transformation from an
all-encompassing industrial holding company to a future-oriented
technology group.
