Unadjusted EBIT for the first nine months of 2014 amounted to EUR 17.0 million; the corresponding EBIT margin amounted to 16.2%, consolidated net income to EUR 14.2 million and earnings per share to EUR 1.20. The actual amount of the aforementioned expense item may differ at the time of payment from the amounts presented here. Financial performance STRATEC Biomedical AG reported a positive business performance for the first nine months of 2015 characterized by disparate developments in individual business segments. Group sales increased by 1.8% to EUR 107.2 million and the EBIT margin rose from 16.8% (previous year's adjusted figure) to 17.9% in the first nine months of 2015. Group performance was driven by a positive product mix and efficiency enhancements. Service parts continued to account for a proportionately high share of sales. This was due to a rise in demand for service materials as a result of continued expansion in the global base of installed analyzer systems. Also, the ratio of instruments sold to the growing share of service parts lead to positive margin development on a group level. Individual customers have reported weaker sales figures in various regions within Asia in recent months. The Group's tax rate amounted to 18.1% for the first nine months of 2015. As a result, consolidated net income was EUR 15.9 million, corresponding to an increase of 8.8% compared to the figure for the first nine months of the previous year (+12.5% on unadjusted 2014 figure). Earnings per share increased by EUR 0.11 to EUR 1.35 (+8.9% / +12.5% on unadjusted 2014 figure). Free cash flow amounted to EUR 16.1 million after nine months 2015. The decline in comparison to last year was mainly due to higher preliminary tax payments. Cash and cash equivalents rose to EUR 54.7 million at the reporting date on September 30, 2015 and the equity ratio amounted to 80.4%. Development in personnel The total number of employees at the STRATEC Group, including personnel hired from temporary employment agencies and trainees, rose year-on-year by 3.4% from 554 to 573 as of September 30, 2015. Given ongoing demand from our partners for our research and development services and for the supply of analyzer systems, we continue to seek well-qualified personnel, especially in the development division. Projects and other developments STRATEC is focusing on achieving further key development milestones, further pending market launches, and finalizing negotiations for new development and production contracts. One focus here is on developing proprietary platform solutions, which should contribute to the company's further growth from 2017 onwards. The expansion in production and development capacities is set to play a major role in terms of planning the company's future growth. The move into new buildings at our site in Romania and in Switzerland is scheduled to take place in the first half of 2016. Financial forecast remains valid The Group's performance in the first nine months confirms the current forecast for 2015, according to which STRATEC expects to generate slight year-on-year sales growth at around the growth rates reported to date in 2015. As a result of the developments outlined above, the EBIT margin is expected to be above the level reported for the nine-month period. Although individual customers have slightly reduced their forecasts for the remainder of the financial year and for 2016 to account for the current dip in turnover figures in Asia, we can confirm our valid mid-term financial forecast. This provides for average annual sales growth of eight to twelve percent through to 2017 based on the figures for the 2013 financial year (EUR 128.0 million) and for this to be accompanied by increasing profitability. We expect figures to fall below or exceed this range in individual years. As well as pursuing the opportunities offered by organic growth, STRATEC is increasingly reviewing external opportunities which could enable the company to generate faster growth in key areas or access new niche markets. All activities serve to broaden the share of the value chain we can offer to our customers. One key priority is to avoid entering into any situation of competition with existing or potential partners.
