DGAP-News: RATIONAL AG / Key word(s): 9-month figures RATIONAL AG: Growth continues 04.11.2015 / 07:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Press release RATIONAL AG: Growth continues - Sales up 14 percent in the first nine months - EBIT increased by 17 percent - Success in the American growth market - Forecast confirmed Landsberg, 4 November 2015. Professional-kitchen specialist RATIONAL continued on its successful growth path in the third quarter. Sales revenues rose by 10 percent to 143.0 million euros in the quarter (previous year: 129.5 million euros). Sales revenues for the nine-month period were up 14 percent on the previous year, at 403.5 million euros (previous year: 352.7 million euros), after exchange rate adjustments, the increase is 11 percent. Success in the American growth market A particularly large contribution to growth came from the Americas Region, where sales revenues expanded by 39 percent. In addition to good business performance in general, this was also due to positive currency effects. After exchange rate adjustments, the increase comes to 25 percent. Sales growth in the well-developed German market was particularly encouraging. Driven by the positive performance of the field business, sales revenues rose by 13 percent here. Rest of Europe expanded by 6 percent in the first nine months. The main reasons for rather below-average growth are the comparatively poor business performance in Russia and the particularly strong prior-year quarter, during which many school kitchens in the UK were equipped with RATIONAL appliances. In Asia, sales revenues increased by 24 percent year-on-year in the first nine months. One of the main contributing factors was the positive business performance in China. Sales revenues in the "Rest of the world" region also grew by 12 percent year-on-year in the nine-month period. The RATIONAL segment increased its sales revenues by 14 percent in the first nine months. The FRIMA segment also performed in line with our expectations, generating growth of 14 percent. FRIMA's year-on-year increase in sales revenue was particularly strong in the third quarter, at 19 percent. 29 percent EBIT margin Operating costs rose by 14.7 million euros compared with the first nine months of 2014, to 134.7 million euros (previous year: 120.0 million euros). The biggest rise was attributable to the sales and service divisions, where further investments were made in expanding sales capacities. Research and development expenses also increased sharply. "In order to secure the sustained success of our company, we have already spent a total of 18.2 million euros on research and development this year" explains Dr Peter Stadelmann, CEO of RATIONAL AG. RATIONAL's EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) after nine months increased by 17 percent year-on-year, to 116.1 million euros (previous year: 99.2 million euros). The nine-month EBIT margin was 29 percent (previous year: 28 percent). After exchange rate adjustments, EBIT was 14.4 million euros (or 15 percent) higher than in the previous year, with an EBIT margin of 28 percent (previous year: 26 percent). EBIT was impacted by translation effects on foreign currency positions on the balance sheet, which are reported under other operating expenses and income. In the first nine months of the previous year, the corresponding effect had been 6.0 million euros. The sharp increase in the value of the euro wiped out all the positive effects from the first half of 2015 (+4.6 million euros) in the third quarter. This led to a decrease from pure translation effects of 0.3 million euros in balance in nine-month earnings. 93 new jobs in 2015 At 30 September 2015, RATIONAL employed 1,517 people worldwide, 857 of whom were in Germany. A total of 93 new jobs have been created in 2015 to date, primarily in sales and marketing. 47 of these are in Germany. Outlook confirmed "Based on the positive business performance in the first nine months, we can again confirm our outlook for continued positive sales and earnings performance in financial year 2015", says Dr Stadelmann.
