Consolidated revenues of the UET Group amounted to EUR 39.026 million in the financial year 2018. (Previous year: EUR 47.635 million). The decline resulted from the sale of the MANUFACTURING division as of May 2018 and the reduction of product areas in the core business of SYSTEMS. SERVICE and ENGINEERING were able to increase sales slightly.

For the 2018 financial year, the UET Group reports EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) in the amount of EUR 6.522 million (Previous Year EUR 1.784 million). Earnings before interest and taxes EBIT amounted to EUR 4.574 million (previous year: EUR -0.270 million).
Starting in the financial year 2018, the UET Group will make use of the balance sheet option and will transfer part of its research and development to intangible assets. For 2018, EUR 3.545 million has been capitalised and will be depreciated in the following years. The result for the year includes one-time effects from the de-consolidation in the MANUFACTURING division.

The result attributable to the shareholders of UET - taking into account minority interests in consolidated net income in 2018 - amounts to EUR 0.29 per share (previous year: EUR -0.18).

UET's equity improved by EUR 10.211 million as of 31 December 2018 to EUR 1.161 million.
