annual report
14.03.2007
Situation stabilised
Marked increase in gross profits
EBIT doubled - Group result positive
Good prospects for 2007
IVU Traffic Technologies AG has further stabilised its situation.
This is shown by the Annual Report 2006 which the Supervisory Board
has approved today. This is the second positive annual result in
series and is a confirmation of the work of the company in recent
years. Sales were actually down by about 3.8% from the previous year
at EUR 30.1 million. But the key point is that the gross profit, i.e.
the value creation of the company, rose to EUR 24.6 million, an
increase of EUR 1.4 million in comparison to 2005. This meant that
EBIT could be more than doubled to EUR 2.1 million. The operating
result was EUR 3.0 million, which represents an improvement of EUR
1.7 million. And IVU is also optimistic for the current year. The
company reckons with a further stabilisation and a continuation of
the positive trends.
The costs for the financial year 2006 remained generally stable. The
other operational costs, adjusted for neutral effects, remained more
or less constant. Depreciation was lower once again. The positive
annual result improved the equity situation in the financial year by
EUR 1.4 million. Debts could be repaid as planned. This has further
stabilised the assets situation.
Personnel expenses rose in 2006, and were EUR 645 000 higher than in
the previous year. This is due to the further restructuring of the
company towards increased value creation and higher quality. At the
Berlin and Aachen locations alone, 27 new employees were recruited in
2006, most of them highly-qualified computer scientists and software
engineers. This means that the team has been further strengthened as
a result, providing the basis for the growth planned for the coming
years.  IVU also expects to return positive results for the financial
year 2007. The order situation is good, and a considerable portion of
the turnover planned for 2007 has already been secured in March.
Sales will be about as high as in 2006, that is above EUR 30 million.
And the planned gross profit of EUR 25 million is about the same
level as in the previous year. That will once again lead to a good
EBIT and to a further growth in equity. And if one or another of the
major projects currently in the acquisition phase comes to
finalisation, then an additional increase is possible.
IVU is now in a stable situation. Growth of the company is planned,
particularly in international operations.
The complete text of the Annual Report will be available from
Wednesday, 14 March 2007, approx. 18.00 CET, under www.ivu.de.
