The consolidated turnover established in accordance with IFRS rose from EUR 123.0 million in 2006 to EUR 130.3 million in 2007.
Turnover growth was a little higher in the second half of the year (+6.6%) than in the first six months (+5.5%). This is due to a slight increase in secondary orders. Turnover growth was mainly achieved outside the eurozone (+22.3% in H2).
Full 2007 results and projections for 2008 will be announced on the morning of Friday 15 February 2008. A press and analysts meeting will follow the announcement of those results.
