Mar. absolute 2013 2012 Group sales 256 289 - 33 thereof division Germany / Western Europe 124 154 - 30 thereof division Eastern Europe 92 95 - 3 thereof division USA 40 40 - EBITDA - 9 0 - 9 EBIT (operating result) - 40 - 33 - 7 Result before income taxes - 46 - 45 - 1 Result after income taxes - 35 - 32 - 3 In the first quarter 2013 the harsh winter led to significant volume declines. Exceptions were Russia and the USA: In the USA volume remained almost stable, and in Russia volume increased in the first quarter 2013. Group sales declined by 11%. Group EBITDA decreased by a total of EUR 9 million. This includes negative one-time effects of EUR 2 million. The remaining decrease of EUR 7 million mainly resulted from weather conditions. Depreciation and amortization declined by EUR 2 million, therefore, EBIT decreased by EUR 7 million. Net investment income and net interest improved. There was no change in other financial results. The result before income taxes therefore only fell by EUR 1 million. The result after income taxes was EUR -35 million. For fiscal year 2013, Dyckerhoff expects Group sales and EBITDA to remain at a similar level to 2012. This is based on the assumption that the weather-related volume decreases of the first quarter can be caught up. Results before and after taxes will show a positive development as a result of the nonrecurrence of the extraordinary write-downs of 2012. The complete Interim Report will be released on May 3, 2013 at noon. 03.05.2013 DGAP's Distribution Services include Regulatory Announcements, Financial/Corporate News and Press Releases.
