Financial Figures/Balance Sheet/3-month report
05.08.2014
Despite slightly decreasing sales revenues, voestalpine Group was able to
marginally increase the operating result (EBITDA), respectively to keep the
profit from operations (EBIT) largely stable. Earnings before and after tax
increased significantly.
The general economic trends, in place since the beginning of 2014, continued in
the first quarter of the business year 2014/15: Europe recovers steadily but at
slow pace, the solid economic trend in North America persists, the growth rates
in Brazil stay depressed and the economy in China returns to more robust levels
after a weak start of the year.
Against this background, the four divisions of voestalpine Group showed a solid
development: The Steel Division was able to keep the operating result (EBITDA)
stable despite somewhat decreasing revenues due to deflationary raw material
trends, the Special Steel Division showed a slight decline in revenues as well
as earnings, the Metal Engineering Division was able to improve the margins
above last year's level at significantly lower revenues because of the closure
of the standard rails production in Duisburg and the Metal Forming Division
succeeded in slightly increasing revenues as well as the operating result
(EBITDA).
The outlook for the business year 2014/15 remains unchanged: From the current
point of view, it can be anticipated that the operating result (EBITDA) and
profit from operations (EBIT) of the voestalpine Group will be somewhat higher
than the figures of the past business year.
