finances/Financial Report
SinnerSchrader started the
2007/2008 financial year as planned, with revenue growth of nearly 14
per cent and an operating margin of 6.2 per cent in the first quarter
(1 September to 30 November 2007). Moreover, incoming orders which 
were 30 per cent above the previous year's level have helped lay a 
solid foundation for future business.
In the first quarter of 2007/2008, SinnerSchrader achieved revenues 
of EUR 5.4 million. The growth in revenues was fuelled by the dynamic
development of the media business. Strong growth in the German market
for online advertising had an impact also on the media budgets 
managed by SinnerSchrader, which rose 45 per cent compared to the 
previous year. Existing customers were very important to the 
development of revenues in the first quarter, among them those 
customers that SinnerSchrader had acquired as new customers in the 
past financial year. In addition, SinnerSchrader began work on a 
project for a renowned German company in the logistics industry.
The operating result (EBITA) amounted to EUR 0.3 million in the first
quarter, thus reaching the level of the previous year despite the 
final charges associated with the introduction of a new 
organisational model. The consolidated income came to EUR 0.3 
million, which was nearly 34 per cent above the previous year. The 
consolidated income per share was EUR 0.03, or EUR 0.01 higher than 
the year before.
As of 30 November 2007, SinnerSchrader had a liquidity reserve of EUR
11.0 million, which was EUR 0.5 million higher than on 31 August 
2007. The equity ratio amounted to 73 per cent in the first quarter.
SinnerSchrader views its business development in the first quarter as
a good starting point for achieving its goals for the year as a 
whole: revenue growth of 15 per cent to reach over EUR 21 million and
an EBITA of EUR 1.8 to EUR 1.9 million. A dividend in the amount of 
EUR 0.12 per share, which was paid for the first time in December 
2007, can therefore also be expected for the 2007/2008 financial 
year. Based on the current state of knowledge, such a dividend 
payment would once again be paid from the tax-recognised contribution
account.
