Germany, led to cautious expectations for first quarter 2012 results. After
a weak start in January, orders stabilized throughout the period. The
result: sales of 20,761,000 EUR - the highest in the history of the
company.
Despite the fact that the new production facilities opened in late 2011 had
not yet reached full capacity, revenue in the first quarter 2012 was the
second highest ever. The record figures for the first quarter of 2011, a
boom time for the machinery and automotive industry, were not quite
achieved, making it even more remarkable that revenue rose 70% as compared
to the fourth quarter of last year.
Although production for the first of the announced major projects was begun
in March, management is not anticipating start of production for the second
project until late summer. The same applies to production tests for the
ChromOptics project, which should begin generating revenue in the fourth
quarter of this year. Before the production of biological waste air
purification systems can begin at the Zwickau plant in the fourth quarter,
about 1.2 million EUR will have to be invested in plant and equipment for
the new product line 'Impreglon BioTec'.
Management expects the economy to remain weak in non-German European
countries throughout 2012, with a recovery in 2013. The new major projects
starting in 2012 will boost sales in Germany. The same can be said for the
new acquisitions in the US and Asia in 2011 and 2012 which should lead
steady revenue figures and an increase in sales of approx. 20% in 2012.
With 22 plants in 11 countries around the world, Impreglon is a global
leader in surface technology.
