technotrans AG / Key word(s): Quarter Results 08.11.2011 06:56 Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted by DGAP - a company of EquityStory AG. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The technotrans Group maintained the recent trend in generating slightly more revenue in the third quarter of the financial year than in the two preceding quarters. Revenue rose by 20.1 percent to EUR 25.8 million (prior-year quarter EUR 21.4 million). After nine months, revenue therefore reached EUR 74.1 million, a gain of 19.0 percent. The acquisition of Termotek AG once more accounted for slightly more than half of growth, but core business in the printing industry and services also progressed well. Despite adverse exchange rate movements the operating result (EBIT) reached EUR 1.9 million for Q3 2011 (prior-year quarter EUR 0.9 million), an increase of 112.3 percent. This represents an EBIT margin of 7.5 percent as against 4.2 percent in the prior-year quarter and 6.0 percent in the preceding quarter. EBIT at the nine-month mark amounted to EUR 4.6 million (previous year EUR 2.5 million, including benefits from short-time, +87.4 percent). The effective tax rate remained virtually unchanged at 40.8 percent for the three quarters because the profit contributions of certain international subsidiaries were low. Net income for the first nine months reached EUR 2.4 million (previous year EUR 1.5 million, +60.9 percent). This corresponds to earnings per share of EUR 0.37 (previous year EUR 0.23) for shares outstanding.
