In spite of sustained difficult framework conditions, Group sales adjusted by the US impregnating business divested in July 2019 rose by 2 %. After nine months, sales of EUR 519.3 million (9M 2018: EUR 534.2 million) were reported, although they were slightly below the previous year on an adjusted comparison. In view of falling cost of materials, and lower personnel expenses, the quarterly EBIT (earnings before financial result and income tax) improved by 36 % to EUR 11.4 million compared with the weak year-earlier quarter (EUR 8.4 million). However, after nine months EBIT at EUR 31.6 million was still slightly below the year-earlier value (EUR 31.9 million). Thanks to an improved financial result and income taxes, consolidated net profit at EUR 19.5 million (9M 2018: EUR 19.3 million) was slightly above the year-earlier value after nine months. The sales forecast for 2019 of between EUR 655 million and EUR 685 million appears attainable at the upper end. The same applies to the operating result of between EUR 38 million and EUR 40 million. However, owing to the sustained difficult economic environment, additional measures from the "Alpha" optimization programme may become necessary to safeguard earnings for the coming year and in order to significantly improve earnings over the medium term.
