Achim Mansen, CEO of Essanelle Hair Group AG: 'It is impossible to be more specific about the earnings projections for the whole of 2013. On the one hand, this is due to the traditionally high significance of Christmas sales, on the other hand, the effects of the minimum wage and corresponding price increases introduced in the past months turned out in very different ways. This makes a precise estimation for the year-end business difficult. But we do consider the current range of EUR 5.0 million to EUR 6.0 million to be very reasonable.'
