Asslar (ots Ad hoc-Service) -
Pfeiffer Vacuum Technology AG reports record-breaking earnings.
Net income for the year 43.1 % more than last year. Earnings per
share EUR 2.24. Higher dividend. The leading producer of high-quality
vacuum pumps, measuring instruments and complete vacuum systems,
announces its full earnings for 2000.
Highlights at a glance:
1999 2000 Rise
Sales EUR 153.5 million EUR 184.7 million + 20.3 %
Orders received EUR 147.8 million EUR 196.8 million + 33.2 %
Operating profit (EBIT)
EUR 22.9 million EUR 35.5 million + 54.8 %
Net income for the year
EUR 13.3 million EUR 19.1 million + 43.1 %
Earnings per share EUR 1.54 EUR 2.24 + 45.5 %
The favorable trend of the first nine months continued in the
fourth quarter. Pfeiffer Vacuum's most important products,
turbomolecular pumps, made a decisive contribution to the successful
business results. Consistent cost management and a shift in product
mix to items with more productive margins yielded a disproportionally
higher result compared with 1999. The profit to sales ratio (before
tax) rose from 15.5 % in 1999 to 18.4 % in 2000. On the basis of the
outstanding business results the company will propose to the General
Meeting the distribution of a gross dividend of EUR 0.72 per share /
ADR(1999: EUR 0.56).
At today's financial press conference and at the following
analysts' conference in Frankfurt, President and CEO Wolfgang Dondorf
will also present a forecast for the current financial year. Once
again it was possible to increase orders received and turnover by
two-digit percentages in the first two months of the year.
