Buttenwiesen-Pfaffenhofen, 11 November 2011 - SURTECO SE generated sales of EUR 312.9 million in the first three quarters of 2011. The leading manufacturer of surface technologies based on plastics and technical papers for the international construction and furnishing industry thereby increased the sales volume by 7 % compared with the equivalent year-earlier period. An increase of 6 % was posted on the German market while foreign sales rose by 8 %.
The Strategic Business Unit Plastics closed the first nine months of the year with sales of EUR 180.0 million (+5 %). The paper segment generated EUR 132.9 million (+11 %). Growth in the Strategic Business Unit Plastics was achieved overwhelmingly in foreign markets whereas growth in the Strategic Business Unit Paper was shared equally between the domestic and foreign markets.
During the first three quarters of 2011, the operating result (EBITDA) of the SURTECO Group amounted to EUR 45.0 million (-8 %). Earnings before tax (EBT) fell from EUR 26.4 to EUR 18.5 million. This was caused in part by the impairments amounting to EUR 3.2 million during the first half-year on the package of shares in Pfleiderer AG, Neumarkt, held by SURTECO, high purchasing prices, and one-off effects amounting to EUR 2 million arising from preparations for an acquisition that has meanwhile been abandoned. Consolidated net profit amounted to EUR 12.0 million (previous year: EUR 19.4 million) after the first nine months of the reporting year. 11,075,522 no-par-value shares yield earnings per share of EUR 1.09 (previous year: EUR 1.75).
