3-month report
07.05.2007
Business developments show further stabilisation Turnover and gross profit up over last year's figures EBIT and consolidated return already positive after three months
IVU Traffic Technologies AG was able to further stabilise its position in the first three months of the current financial year in comparison with the same period last year. All performance figures are positive, and in particular the EBIT and the consolidated re-turn have improved markedly.
Turnover has increased by 3% in comparison with the same period last year, totalling EUR 6.3 million. The gross profit could be increased by 5%; for the first three months of 2007 it is about EUR 5.7 million.
Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) showed a considerable improvement. Whereas the figure after the first three months of the previous year was - EUR 0.1 million, this year it was a positive EUR 0.1 million. The group result has risen by about EUR 240 000 to EUR 53 000. At the same time in the previous year it was still negative at - EUR 0.2 million.
The order book situation is also very good. At the start of the second quarter orders already cover 80% of the planned turnover and the gross profit for 2007.
That means that IVU is on course to return a profit for the current financial year. The goals of the company for 2007 are a turnover comparable with 2006 of something in excess of EUR 30 million, a gross profit of EUR 25 million, and along with this another good EBIT and a fur-ther growth in equity.
