Revenues increased to EUR 195.1 million. EBIT increased to EUR 10.9 million, earnings per share moved to EUR 0.45 (previous year EUR 0.20). Occupancy rate rose to 88.9%. The core business "care for elderly and patients" in the segments inpatient and outpatient still shows high vacancies, although total occupancy rate has increased by almost 2% in the last business year. At this point the company still has significant potential which has not been made accessible yet. The general skills shortage in Germany hinders the company from rapidly improving capacity utilization in its facilities. Internal reorganization including decentralization of the operational business is not completed. With the appointment of Dieter Wopen as new member of the management board starting on 15 November 2012 the company shall insofar "gain speed". The contract with chairman Michael Thanheiser was prematurely prolonged until 31 March 2017. The annual report 2011/2012 will be published on Monday, 08 October 2012. end of ad-hoc-announcement ================================================================================ About Marseille-Kliniken AG: Marseille-Kliniken AG (ISIN DE0007783003, WKN 778300, MKA) with its 57 residential care facilities, three residential units for assisted living and about 4,700 employees is a market leading listed company on health care in Germany.
