Order intake is up 7.3%, from a high Q1/2015 base that counted two exceptional orders worth almost EUR 5 million, despite the restructuring of the production centres in France slowing down order intake and invoicing.
This situation should improve in the last quarter of this year. In addition the exceptional 2015 order in the USA should be invoiced in 2016.
agta record confirms its growth perspective of 8 to 9%.
First half-year EBITA will be affected by the delayed invoicing at record France.
In the second half, if the British Pound stays at the present level, EBITA could be reduced by EUR 0.6 million and non-cash forex losses could be EUR 0.6 million (estimates).
