Walldorf, October 22, 2012: According to provisional
figures for the first nine months of 2012, REALTECH AG
recorded a 2 % increase in group revenue at EUR 29.1
million (first nine months of 2011: EUR 28.6 million).
Revenue in the Consulting business area increased by 5 % to
EUR 20.2 million (EUR 19.3 million). Software revenue
decreased by 4 % to EUR 8.9 million (EUR 9.2 million).
Operating profit (EBIT) improved to EUR 0.0 million
compared to minus EUR 0.4 million in the previous year.
This was due, in particular, to increased operating profit
in Japan, Germany and New Zealand, linked to improved
perfor-mance in the Consulting segment. A reduction in
software sales year-on-year counteracted this positive
development.
Profit for the year decreased from EUR 0.3 million to
minus EUR 0.7 million, cor-responding to earnings per share
of minus EUR 0.13 compared to EUR 0.05 in the previous
year. Net liquidity was EUR 10.4 million at the end of
Septem-ber 2012, compared to EUR 11.5 million at the end of
last September.
3rd Quarter 2012:
Group revenue was on a par with the previous year at EUR
10.2 million (third quarter of 2011: EUR 10.2 million).
This included a 6 % increase in Consulting revenue to EUR
7.4 million (EUR 7.0 million). Software revenue decreased
by 11 % to EUR 2.8 million (EUR 3.2 million).
At the same time, operating profit increased year-on-year
to EUR 0.9 million (EUR 0.3 million). Profit for the year
rose to EUR 0.8 million (EUR minus 0.1 million), resulting
in earnings per share of EUR 0.15 (minus EUR 0.02).
The Executive Board confirms its assessment of July 2012
and anticipates posi-tive operating profit for the current
fiscal year.
REALTECH will be publishing its quarterly report for
Q3/2012 on November 6, 2012.
