DGAP-News: CENTROTEC Sustainable AG / Key word(s): Preliminary Results CENTROTEC Sustainable AG: CENTROTEC with slight growth in revenue and earnings - outlook for 2016 cautiously optimistic 28.01.2016 / 07:30 The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Brilon, January 28, 2016: CENTROTEC Sustainable AG, Brilon, generated revenue of EUR 548 million in the 2015 financial year (unaudited, previous year EUR 530.5 million). This slightly betters the most recent forecast of a corridor of EUR 540 to 545 million. Based on the provisional unaudited calculations, the prior-year level of the operating result (EBIT) of EUR 31.0 million will likewise be just exceeded. CENTROTEC expects the mild growth trend to continue in the 2016 financial year. A steady development in the core market Germany and growth in most international markets in Europe are taking shape. We base this forecast on a fundamentally positive development of the overall economic and regulatory environment. The development in energy prices is difficult to forecast. A continuing low level will inhibit the propensity to invest in energy-saving heating and ventilation technology. A renewed flaring-up of the simmering conflicts in Russia and the Arab world as well as the latent problems in the eurozone could equally undermine the business performance in the current financial year. The audited 2015 financial statements and Annual Report for the 2015 financial year will be published on March 22, 2016. CENTROTEC Sustainable AG CENTROTEC Sustainable AG enjoys a presence in around 50 different countries through subsidiaries and sales partners. The principal group companies are Wolf, Brink Climate Systems and Ned Air in the Climate Systems segment, specialising in heating, climate control and ventilation technology e.g. in the form of solar thermal systems, CHP units and home ventilation systems with heat recovery, as well as Ubbink and Centrotherm in the Gas Flue Systems segment, with their focus on gas flue and air piping systems.
