ELMOS 1999 - the most successful
year in the history of the company
During a balance press conference, the Dortmund company ELMOS
Semiconductor AG presented its most successful financial year so far.
At the general meeting in May, ELMOS will suggest payment of
dividends of DM 0,90 per share according the "pay- out & take-back"
principle.
Turnover in 1999 was increased to 169,3 million from 139,3 million
the year before. With the constant growth in turnover, the gross
margin is also increased, reaching 50,4% of turnover in the last
financial year. The aim for the year 2000 is a turnover of 200
million DM.
In particular the growing internationalisation is responsible for
this. In 1999 42% of turnover was achieved in the EU market, the
highest turnover potential for ELMOS is still in the USA. The stable
price situation for customer- and application specific integrated
circuits (ASICs) as well as cost decreasing measures took
considerable effect in 1999. As already defined in 1998 the trend
toward cost decrease relative to the turnover was continued in 1999.
The EBIT (result before interest and tax) was 45,5 million DM in 1999
following 17,7 million DM the previous year. This result is expected
to be expanded to 58 million DM in the current financial year.
ELMOS has thus proven itself to be independent of the conjuncture
cycles of the semiconductor market and the automotive industry. The
success of 1999 secures the turnover for well past the year 2005.
