Mortsel (Belgium), May 14, 2013 - Agfa-Gevaert today announced its first quarter 2013 results.

"Agfa HealthCare's growth engines performed well, whereas Agfa Graphics' top line was affected by the uncertain and weak economic situation. The gross profit margin continued to improve year-on-year, driven by the effects of our efficiency programs.
