Feldkirchen, 4 August 2009
The first six months of fiscal year 2009 is characterized by the cyclical downturn of the overall economy. Group-wide order intake is about 30% below the previous year's level. Particularly affected are the market segments automotive and Formula-1. In the field of medical technology the order intake was above last year - also due to new acquired customers. - At €4,748,000, revenues in the second quarter of 2009 are down 13.6% on the corresponding prior-year figure of €5,495,000. Revenues for the period from 1 January to 30 June decrease by €513,000 or 4.8%, from €10,769,000 in 2008 to €10,256,000 in 2009. - The Group’s booked business amounts to €1.9 million as of 30 June 2009 (previous year: €1.4 million) – both figures without MediMet GmbH. - EBITDA decrease from €509,000 in the second quarter of 2008 to minus €58,000 in the second quarter of 2009. In the period from 1 January to 30 June EBITDA decrease from €1,075,000 in 2008 to minus €286,000 in 2009. - Consolidated net income after interest and taxes decline year-on-year by €1,014,000, from €282,000 in the second quarter of 2008 to minus €732,000 in the second quarter of 2009. For the period from 1 January to 30 June, consolidated net income after interest and taxes decline by €2,204,000, from €600,000 in 2008 to minus €1,604.000 in 2009. In the first half year of 2009 special charges incurred due to additional depreciation implicated by the purchase of MediMet worth of €540,000. - Net cash from operating activities were down by €4,350,000 to minus €5,016,000 in the first six months of 2009 compared to minus €666,000 in the first six months of 2008 (thereof minus € 4.292.000 in connection with the acquisition of MediMet). - The number of employees on the reporting date 30 June 2009 is 209 (previous year: 146 employees without MediMet GmbH). 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 slight improvements in the 2nd half of our fiscal year. The entire interim report on Q2 2009 will be published on 14 August 2009 and will be available on our website www.alphaform.de - rubric IR/Reports.
