• Turnover significantly exceeds expectations
• Positive company result, again
• Positive outlook for the second half-year
JoWooD Productions Software AG, listed on the Vienna stock exchange
market, surpassed the quarterly turnover as announced in this year’s
sharholders’ meeting of July 6, 2006 by more than 10%. The Company’s
result exceeds expectations and is repeatedly positive.
The turnover of the first half-year has been effectively increased by
67% (TEUR 7,606) compared to last year’s reference period. The
operating result of TEUR 1,055 is clearly positive, with an
accumulated group result amounting to TEUR 885.
"We are already looking forward to the company’s results of the third
and fourth quarter of 2006. The strongest titles of this year will be
released within the next few weeks. The pre-order of Gothic 3 has
begun, and we expect a very promising launch of this product. We are
already working on add-on packages of JoWooD’s SpellForce- and Gothic
3 series, which will partially be launched in 2007 already" says
Albert Seidl, CEO of JoWooD Productions Software AG.
Quantic Lab, a 100% subsidiary of JoWooD with registered office in
Romania, started its operating business activities in April and is
already integrated into the quality assurance process of JoWooD.
Besides that, Quantic Lab’s endeavours to offer its services to third
parties on the market and their efforts already scored some promising
hits. First signed contracts are expected this year.
According to Albert Seidl, "We think that we set a milestone in the
history of JoWooD with such managerial performances and business
developments of our company. This progression demonstrates the
effects of our ongoing restructuring processes and we intent to keep
track." An increased shareholders’ equity of TEUR 8,588 and an equity
ratio of 47% confirms this statement and illustrates a sustainable
and solid balance.
