Fiscal 2006/2007 figures and proposal for profit appropriation
The Supervisory Board of Bertrandt AG today adopted the AG’s annual
financial statements and approved the consolidated financial statements.
Furthermore, and based on the favourable earnings performance, the
Supervisory Board decided to follow the Management Board’s proposal for
profit appropriation. The boards will thus propose to the annual general
meeting on 13 February 2008 the payment of a dividend of 80 cents per share
(previous year: 30 cents).
The Bertrandt Group continued its dynamic growth in the 2006/2007 financial
year, increasing its revenues by 40.8 percent to EUR 339.5 million (from
EUR 241.1 million in the previous year). EBIT was up by EUR 18.0 million to
EUR 32.3 million (EUR 14.3 million in the previous year). Earnings after
income taxes came to EUR 22.2 million (EUR 7.8 million in the previous
year), equating to earnings of EUR 2.20 per share (78 cents one year
earlier).
