Feldkirchen, 8 May 2009
The first quarter of fiscal year 2009 is characterized by the cyclical downturn of the overall economy. Group-wide order intake is about 25% below the previous year's level. Particularly affected are the market segments automotive and Formula-1, whereas medical is about 10% above previous year. - With revenues of €5,508,000 the first quarter of 2009 were up by 4.4% compared to the corresponding prior-year figure of €5,274,000. - The Group’s booked business amounted to €1.9 million as of 31 March 2009 (previous year: €1.4 million without MediMet). - EBITDA decreased from €566,000 in the first quarter of 2008 to minus €228,000 the first quarter of 2009. - Consolidated net income after interest and taxes decreased year-on-year by €1,193,000 from €321,000 in the first quarter of 2008 to minus €872,000 in the first quarter of 2009. In the first quarter of 2009 special charges incurred due to additional depreciation implicated by the purchase of MediMet worth of €286,000. - Earnings per share decreased from €0.06 in the first quarter of 2008 to minus €0.16 in 2009. - Net cash from operating activities were down by €5,215,000 to €4,822,000 in the first three months of 2009 compared to plus €393,000 in the first three months of 2008. - The number of employees in full time equivalents on the reporting date 31 March 2009 was 210 (previous year: 141 employees without MediMet). We assume that investment activities of our customers in the traditional Alphaform business are at low level in 2009, analogous to the overall economic climate. We expect improvements in the 2nd half of our fiscal year. The entire interim report on Q1 2009 will be published on 15 May 2009 and will be available on our website www.alphaform.de - rubric IR/Reports.
