PC-SPEZIALIST – Preliminary Results for the First Nine Months of 2003: Double-
Digit Revenue and EBIT Growth
Bielefeld, 30 October 2003: PC-SPEZIALIST Franchise AG recorded substantial
growth in operating results during the first nine months of 2003. Based on
preliminary figures, earnings before taxes and minority interests increased by
18.8% to approx. EUR 3.8 million (same period last year: EUR 3.2 million).
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) increased by 17.2% to approx. EUR 3.4
million (same period last year: EUR 2.9 million).
As outlined in the two preceding quarterly reports, the company’s results have
been impacted by considerable extraordinary tax effects due to new tax-related
legislation implemented in Germany in 2003. Consequently, as at 30 September
2003 consolidated net profit for the Group, amounting to approx. EUR 1.9
million, was restricted to the level posted for the same period last year,
despite the substantial increase in operating income. Earnings per share
amounted to approx. EUR 0.51 (same period last year: EUR 0.52). Adjusted for the
above-mentioned tax effects, EPS would have been approx. EUR 0.58, a year-on-
year increase of 11.5%.
Revenues increased considerably by 35.3%, thus totalling approx. EUR 11.5
million (same period last year: EUR 8.5 million). The revenue figure includes
centralised merchandise sales of approx. EUR 2.3 million. The operational
increase in revenues, excluding the company’s centralised merchandise business,
was roughly 8.2%.
The PC-SPEZIALIST Group succeeded in further expanding its partner business in
the period just ended. The number of partners grew by 23.2% compared with last
year’s total, taking the overall figure to 1,223 (same period last year: 993
partners).
The new earnings forecast for the current financial year will be published on 25
November 2003 in conjunction with the definitive interim report for the first
nine months of 2003.
