Munich, April 30, 2014
At today's annual general meeting of ATOSS Software AG, the Management
Board reported on the continuing positive development of the company.
Following the end of the 2013 financial year, itself the company's eighth
record year in succession, the Munich-based specialist in workforce
management has stepped up the pace. In the first three months of the
current financial year, sales were up 11 percent at EUR 9.7 million,
including an exceptional 21 percent increase in software licenses. New
orders for software licenses more than doubled. This highly positive
development in sales in turn led to an increase of 22 percent in operating
profits (EBIT) which came in at EUR 2.5 million, with a margin on sales
(EBIT) of 26 percent, compared with 24 percent in the year before.
Shareholders at the AGM endorsed the management's proposals, with all
resolutions adopted by a large majority. The members of the Supervisory
Board were confirmed in office, and the proposed dividend of EUR 0.72 per
share was approved. ATOSS Software AG therefore remains true to its
dividend policy which provides for continuity and allows shareholders to
enjoy a generous share in the company's success. The dividend will be
disbursed to shareholders on May 2, 2014.
ATOSS continues to experience strong demand for its workforce management
solutions. The climate in this sector coupled with this high level of
interest together offer outstanding prospects for growth and therefore also
further potential for ATOSS stock. Against this background, the Management
Board once again expects to see new record results in the current financial
year 2014, with further growth in 2015.
