Company Information
12.09.2011
Cloppenburg, September 12, 2011 - According to current pre-order figures from
specialist bicycle retailers, Derby Cycle AG (ISIN DE000A1H6HN1) has exceeded
the previous year's pre-order volume of September 30, 2010 by 25% after
completion of all of the year´s key bicycle trade fairs. Usually, Derby Cycle AG
publishes the pre-order volume for the coming bike season after completing the
financial year on September 30. However, as the Management Board anticipates
that the final increase in pre-order volumes on September 30, 2011 will be
approximately on par with the current level, the company is already prepared to
release its first revenues forecast for the financial year 2011/12. On the back
of the positive development, the Management Board is currently anticipating
double-digit revenues growth year-on-year for the financial year 2011/12. This
development is primarily attributable to the strong demand among specialist
retailers for electric bikes and sports bicycles from Derby Cycle brands.
