Heidelberg, May 7: : the division's preliminary sales, incoming orders and operating result falling below the previous year's level. Preliminary sales amounted to EUR 427 million (previous year: EUR 445 million), preliminary incoming orders were EUR 419 million (previous year: EUR 449 million), and the preliminary operating result EUR -7 million (previous year: EUR 7 million).
In the EMEA, North America, Latin America, and Asia/Pacific regions, sales and incoming orders either matched the previous year's level or fell below it. Sales and incoming orders only climbed significantly in the Eastern Europe region. Growth was particularly strong in Russia in the year under review. It was a different story for the Asia/Pacific region where, despite the recovery in the Chinese market, the figures fell below the previous year due to the extremely unfavorable currency situation for European suppliers in Japan. Incoming orders slackened off in the North America region, in particular in the second half of the year.
At March 31, 2008, the Heidelberg Group had a workforce of 19,596 worldwide (previous year: 19,171). Most of the new appointments were in the field of production and global sales.
Other dates:
The scheduled publication date for the Annual Report 2007/2008 is June 10, 2008. As this coincides with the drupa trade show, a press release will replace the usual press conference.
