SOFTING today announced that based on its excellent sales and earnings
performance in the fourth quarter it expects earnings before interest and
taxes (EBIT) for the current year to come in at around EUR 4 million. Since
this significantly exceeds our previous guidance, we hereby comply with our
duty to provide the respective information. Compared to 2010, in which we
posted EBIT of EUR 1.53 million, this year's EBIT will increase by
approximately 260 percent. As a result, 2011 will be yet another record
year in terms of both sales and earnings.
We expect sales and earnings to continue to grow considerably in 2012.
