On Group revenues that were up by 12% at EUR 154.5 m (1-6/2002: EUR
137.7 m), EBT was boosted from EUR 7.0 m (1-6/2002) to EUR 9.9 m.
This atypically high half-year result is primarily attributable to
stepped-up shipments from the Spanish and American subsidiaries, as
well as to the consequences of the ongoing rationalisation projects
at the Leonding site. In the first half of 2003, for ex-ample, the
EBIT of Madrid-based Rosenbauer Española rose by around 50% to EUR
2.97 m. The same period saw results in the USA improve by 62% to EUR
3.85 m.
Outlook 2003
The healthy state of the Group's order books, and the high level of
capacity utilisation at its main production facilities, give
Management grounds for expecting revenues to grow to over EUR 300 m
(2002: EUR 286.5 m), with a result to match that posted for the 2002
Financial Year (EBT: EUR 15.7 m).
