In 2006, init innovation in traffic systems AG attained the best results in terms sales and profitability in its entire history. According to preliminary figures (IFRS), the operating result before interest and taxes (EBIT) improved to 5.5 mill. Euro (2005: 4.2 mill. Euro). While exceeding the prior-year record by 30 percent, it also tops projections by approximately 20 percent (4.6 mill. Euro). The net profit increased even more significantly on the previous year, by approximately 31 percent to 3.4 mill. Euro (2005: 2.6 mill. Euro). This results in net earnings per share of 0.36 Euro (2005: 0.26 Euro). At 36.3 mill. Euro, the sales revenues also rose by 8,5 percent above the previous record in 2005 (33.4 mill. Euro). The Karlsruhe-based complete supplier of telematics and electronic fare collection systems for buses and trains thus managed to improve its EBIT margin to over 15 percent (2005: 12.6 percent). This improvement is due on the one hand to the equipping of vehicle fleets with related economies of scale, but is also the result of drastically tightened cost of production. The current fiscal year is expected to continue the impressive growth dynamics of init. At 61.1 mill. Euro, the cushion of existing orders as at the end of last year was still up by 12,3% on the previous year (54.4 mill. Euro). The final figures for the 2006 fiscal year, the complete annual report and the prospects for 2007 will be published at the press conference on financial statements on March 28.
