Publication of the Q1 Figures for 2016
- Order entry of EUR 30.1 million in line with guidance
- Sales at EUR 27.6 million
- Book-to-bill ratio at approximately 1.1
Garching, May 4, 2016 - SUSS MicroTec, a leading supplier of equipment and
process solutions for the semiconductor industry and related markets,
published its quarterly report for the 2016 fiscal year today.
The Company generated sales of EUR 27.6 million (previous year: EUR 26.9
million) in the first quarter 2016 and booked an order entry of EUR 30.1
million (previous year: EUR 28.5 million). The order backlog amounted to
EUR 118.8 million (03/31/2015: EUR 78.8 million).
Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) came in at EUR -2.0 million
(previous year: EUR -2.2 million). The EBIT-Margin for Q1 2016 reached
-7.2% (previous year: -8.2%). Earnings after taxes (EAT) amounted to EUR
-2.5 million, which is the same level as in the previous year. The basic
earnings per share (EPS) totaled EUR -0.13 (previous year: EUR -0.13).
The Free Cash Flow before any security transactions for the first quarter
2016 was EUR -12.9 million, compared to EUR -5.5 million in the previous
year. The main reason for the lower Free Cash Flow is the increase of the
inventory level due to the high order backlog following a record order
intake in Q4, 2015. Net liquidity decreased from EUR 31.6 million to EUR
26.9 million on March 31, 2016.
Outlook
Taking the high order backlog at the yearend 2015 and the expected order
entry for the first half of 2016 into account, the Company reiterates the
guides for sales for the fiscal year to come in between EUR 170 and 180
million. The operating result (EBIT) is expected to be in the bandwidth of
EUR 9 to 13 million. For the second quarter 2016 the management board
expects a higher order intake between EUR 30 and 40 million, compared with
the first quarter.
