Brilon, May 10, 2016: In the first three months of the 2016 financial year
the CENTROTEC Group increased its revenue by 4.0 % to EUR 125.8 million
(previous year EUR 120.9 million). All three segments contributed towards
this growth. Organic growth came to 0.9 %. The operating result (EBITDA)
for the group of EUR 8.8 million was 10 % below the elevated prior-year
figure (EUR 9.8 million), which had included EUR 1.3 million from foreign
exchange gains. The slight increase in depreciation and amortisation
produced an EBIT at group level of EUR 3.0 million (previous year EUR 4.2
million). Organically and before foreign exchange effects, EBIT came to EUR
2.7 million (previous year EUR 2.9 million). A slightly reduced interest
burden and a higher effective tax rate produced earnings per share of EUR
0.05 (previous year EUR 0.11).
The subdued start to the current financial year for the German heating
market, the continuing difficult environment for climate control and CHP
business plus a number of weak international markets such as France and
Spain had a negative effect. On the other hand the Europe-wide trend
towards condensing boiler technology, the steady business performance in
the Netherlands and growth for new products served as positive drivers in
the first quarter of the year.
CENTROTEC confirms its forecast and anticipates moderate growth in revenue
and earnings for 2016. For the full year, revenue is expected to reach EUR
550 to 570 million and the operating result EUR 32 to 35 million.
