10.05.2005
The ElringKlinger Group generated in the first quarter 2005 net sales
of EUR117.0 million. Sales thus nearly equaled the figures of the
first quarter 2004. However, the group was not able to completely
elude the weakness affecting global automotive markets, and German
and North American manufacturers in particular. Furthermore, the fact
that the first quarter 2005 had fewer working days than the first
quarter 2004 also had an effect.
EBIT rose from EUR19.6 million to 20.0 million. EBT for the first
quarter were EUR18.5 million, up 2.8% on the compared quarter in the
previous year. The net income compared to the first quarter 2004 rose
by 2.7%, increasing from EUR11.3 million to EUR11.6 million.
The report on the First Quarter of 2005 marks the start of
ElringKlinger’s transition from HGB to IFRS accounting. This has not
resulted in major changes.
Over the year as a whole, ElringKlinger does not anticipate any
significant recovery of the automotive economy. Despite the rather
difficult economic situation, the ElringKlinger Group - also because
of the launch of new products - plans to increase sales and earnings
throughout the year compared to the previous year.

will be published on May, 11)
