The Supervisory Board today approved the Company's annual financial
statements for the fiscal year 2009/2010 provided with an audit
certificate.
In the fiscal year (April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010) the Group registered
sales of EUR 158.2 million (previous year: EUR 134.2 million). EBIT rose to
EUR 7.4 million (previous year: EUR -1.3 million). Group net income
amounted to EUR 3.2 million (previous year: net loss of EUR -5.2 million).
Thus the positive development of the third quarter has been confirmed and
strengthened in the fourth quarter.
The development is essentially the result of the introduction of new
products in the Photo product group and of the successful implementation of
an integrated restructuring project. The new S2, M9 and X1 cameras have met
with very positive market reception. In the Sport optics product group too,
the Company has been able to assert its market position. The restructuring
project comprised, inter alia, the reduction of purchasing cost and of
other operating expenses, as well as the implementation of modified
distribution structures.
The report on fiscal year 2009/2010 will be online for download as from
July 31, 2010 at the Company's Web site (www.leica-corporate.com) under
'Investor Relations'.
