*) The disclosure of the previous year's figures for 2014 has been revised as necessitated by the readjustment of segment reporting.
Revenues The Rosenbauer Group continued its growth in the first three quarters of 2015. Consolidated revenues increased to EUR 627.5 million (1-9/2014: EUR 562.0 million). The Group's revenues were up 12%, due chiefly to increased deliveries to Arabic countries and North America as well as to positive currency effects. The disclosure of the revenues figures for 2014 was also adjusted due to the review of the criteria for segment reporting.
Result of operations EBIT was lower than last year at EUR 27.6 million (1-9/2014: EUR 31.6 million). The decline in earnings was influenced mainly by the expenses for the launch of new products and the Group's appearance at the world's largest trade fair, which caused other expenses to rise by 20% to EUR 78.8 million. The intra-year EBIT margin of 4.4% (1-9/2014: 5.6%) therefore fell short of the long-term target.
Outlook Even though the situation on the fire equipment markets is not the same all over the world, a slight recovery in overall demand is nonetheless anticipated. Given the solid development in incoming orders in recent months and the expanded production capacity, management is assuming that the current growth will continue. Rosenbauer still expects to generate a 10% increase in revenues in 2015. However, as a result of the expenses for the launch of new products and postponed deliveries, operating earnings will not change to the same extent and an EBIT margin of lower than 6% is anticipated.
