quarterly report
02.05.2012
Karlsruhe, 2 May 2012. init innovation in traffic systems AG has started the
2012 financial year with growth in revenue and profits. According to the
preliminary figures now available, the global system house for telematics,
planning and electronic payment systems generated income of EUR 19.6m in the
first quarter. This corresponds to growth of over 40 per cent compared to the
previous year (EUR 14.0m) and therefore clearly exceeds planning.
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) also increased to EUR 2.8m (previous
year: EUR 2.6m). It should be taken into account in a year-on-year comparison
that in the first quarter of 2011 the partial release of risk provisions for
Dubai influenced the result as a special effect.
The group result after taxes increased over 20 per cent to EUR 1.8m in the first
quarter of 2012 (previous year EUR 1.5m). This corresponds to a profit per share
of EUR 0.20 (previous year: EUR 0.15). Operational cash flow was also positive
once again in the first quarter at EUR 4.4m (previous year: EUR 8.9m). This
means the liquid funds, including securities saleable in the short term,
increased in the reporting period to EUR 27.5m (end of 2011: EUR 23.7m).
After this dynamic start, init sees itself well equipped to be able to achieve
the growth targets of EUR 95m set for the entire year of 2012 with an EBIT of
EUR 19m. Together with the current orders on hand of EUR 124m, more than 90 per
cent of the turnover expected for 2012 is covered.
init is currently involved in numerous public tenders in Germany and abroad.
Many of these tenders will be decided in the next few months, so we can expect
additional high volumes of new orders in terms of amount in 2012.
The detailed report on the first quarter of the financial year will be published
on 10 May 2012.
