Berlin, January 28, 2014. Today's meeting of the Supervisory Board of Eckert & Ziegler Strahlen- und Medizintechnik AG (ISIN DE0005659700) discussed the preliminary results for fiscal year 2013. Despite previous expectations of a strong fourth quarter of 2013, initial analysis has revealed only slightly above-average performance.
As a result, a year-on-year drop in net income for the year of 15% to 20% (EUR 1.95 per share) is anticipated for fiscal year 2013. This also changes the basis of the forecast for 2014, which is, however, still following the pattern of long-term growth.
All figures are provisional and are subject to an audit and the approval of the financial statements by the Supervisory Board. The audited results will be published along with the annual financial statements on March 27, 2014.
