ROSENBAUER GROUP:
The Executive Board of the listed company Rosenbauer International AG presented
the Group’s 2000 figures at a press conference held today.
Thanks to special projects for the delivery of fire-fighting vehicles to China
and South America, Group revenues rose to EUR 287.7 m in 2000, from EUR 241.0 m
in 1999. The “Profit before tax” rose from EUR 1.7 m to EUR 2.7 m, in line with
the increase in the “Profit from operations” (according to the International
Accounting Standards).
The EUR 4.9 m of costs for restructuring (as against EUR 0.0 m in 1999) is
largely attributable to the costs of the reorganisation of the Metz Group that
was started in 2000. As the market cannot be expected to recover this year
either, an extensive reorganisation of the Karlsruhe site was commenced at the
beginning of 2001. This reorganisation aims to reduce all administrative costs
significantly, thereby lowering the break-even point.
At EUR 6.1 m (1999: 0.0 m), the “Discontinuing operations” relates principally
to the closure of the insolvent Dutch subsidiary Rosenbauer BV, based at Hedel
in the Netherlands.
The Executive Board of the Rosenbauer Group intends to propose to the General
Meeting that a dividend of EUR 0.60 per share should be distributed (1999: EUR
1.16 per share).
