LUDWIG BECK Group concludes 2016 fiscal year on a satisfactory note
Munich, January 9, 2017 - The Munich Fashion Group LUDWIG BECK (ISIN DE
0005199905) has concluded the 2016 fiscal year with an increase in sales
over the
previous year. The Group generated gross sales in the aggregate amount of
EUR 177.1m, thus clearly exceeding the sales targets adjusted to EUR 174m
last October. Seasonally appropriate weather conditions provided the basis
for the success achieved in the traditionally strong-selling fourth
quarter.
Sales in the previous year had amounted to EUR 158.6m. The increase in 2016
was due to the fact that the WORMLAND segment newly acquired in May 2015
contributed to Group sales on a full-year basis for the first time in 2016.
The share contributed by WORMLAND was EUR 76.0m (previous year: EUR 54.7m).
On a like-for-like basis, the LUDWIG BECK segment stood its ground in the
face of highly challenging conditions and attained sales in the amount of
EUR 101.1m (previous year: EUR 104.0m). The decline in sales was in line
with the general development of the brick-and-mortar fashion trade which
recorded a 2% loss in the reporting year 2016 (source: TextilWirtschaft).
"In our view, business performance in the fourth quarter surpassed
expectations and put us in the position to conclude the 2016 overall year
with conciliatory results", Dieter Münch, member of the Executive Board of
LUDWIG BECK AG said.
The detailed figures for 2016 as well as the expectations for the new
fiscal year 2017 will be disclosed at the balance sheet press conference in
Munich on March 28, 2017. For more information on all aspects of the
company and its share please refer to the corporate website at http://
