figures
Allgeier surpasses revised forecast
Restructuring measures are taking effect
Bremen, Germany, 27 March 2001. Allgeier Computer AG has surpassed its forecast
figures for the business year 2000 which had been revised in October 2000.
According to preliminary figures, the IT company shows better results than
expected, both in the field of turnover with 9.7 million Euro (forecast: 9.2
million Euro) and in the field of earnings before taxes (EBT) with -2.2 million
Euro (forecast: -2.55 million Euro). These earnings include nonrecurring
extraordinary expenses in the amount of 845,000 Euro incurring, among other
things, for the restructuring program which has meanwhile been launched.
Allgeier plans to further strengthen those areas where the company’s competence
and competitiveness are greatest – firstly, in the market for integrated system
solutions (ERP) and, secondly, in the market for Document Management Systems
(DMS). As forecasted in October 2000, both areas will provide for considerable
growth in the business year 2001. For the following year as well, the Board of
Directors expects a clearly positive development of sales and earnings in these
two areas.
