VERBIO INCREASES 2013/2014 PROFIT GUIDANCE
Zörbig/Leipzig, 4 November 2013 - According to preliminary financial
figures as of 30 September 2013, VERBIO Vereinigte BioEnergie AG has
significantly increased EBITDA of continuing and discontinued operations to
appr. EUR 11.0 million (Q1 2012/2013: EUR 1.6 million) with net sales of
appr. EUR 212.0 million (Q1 2012/2013: EUR 191.4 million). This prompted
the Management Board to increase the earnings guidance for financial year
2013/2014. From the current perspective, EBITDA is expected to be in the
order of EUR 25.0 million (up from previously EUR 17 million) and the
operating result (EBIT) to be largely balanced (up from previously EUR -5.0
million) for financial year 2013/2014.
Financial results as of 30 September 2013 and the interim report for the
1st quarter 2013/2014 will be published on 7 November 2013.
