The Rosenbauer Group got off to a good start in 2006, with
comparatively high capacity utilisation. 2006 will be characterised
once again by the dynamic development of the Group’s US companies and
by rising demand in international export business.

Owing to deferred shipments, the Group’ first-quarter revenues and
result were below the level for last year. As shipments in the
fire-equipment sector tend to be made in the second half of the year,
this seasonal pattern is entirely usual.
New logistics centre in Leonding. The substantial increases in
capacity utilisation at the plant in Leonding in recent years have
made it necessary to enlarge the production facilities at the
Leonding site. The new logistics centre, on which work started in
2005, was completed earlier this year. Work is now in progress on
relocating all the warehousing areas and adapting the freed-up
production space for new uses; this is to be completed in the third
quarter of 2006.
REVENUE AND RESULTS TRENDS The Rosenbauer Group posted revenues of
EUR 61.8 m in the first quarter of 2006 (1-3/2005: EUR 64.2 m). Due
to stepped-up shipments of export orders by the US companies,
revenues in the US segment rose by around 13% to EUR 25.3 m
(1-3/2005: EUR 22.3 m). At EUR 32.3 m (1-3/2005: EUR 35.0 m), the
Austrian companies’ revenues fell short of planned levels, owing to
the deferral of certain shipments.
Owing to the drop in revenues, the operating result (EBIT) fell back
to EUR 1.1 m (1-3/2005: EUR 2.0 m). EBT came to EUR 0.3 m (1-3/2005:
EUR 1.3 m).
ORDERS Order intake in the Group reached an absolute record level of
EUR 109.5 m in the first three months of the year (1-3/2005: EUR 65.4
m). This rise is attributable to international project business.
Order-book levels at 31 March 2006 increased to EUR 292.6 m (31 March
2005: EUR 208.9 m). This large reserve of unfilled orders assures a
very high level of capacity utilisation at the production facilities.
OUTLOOK In view of the continued growth of the Group’s business in
the USA and the high level of demand on international markets,
Management expects the 2006 financial year to see the Group
continuing to grow, with an accompanying increase in its revenues and
earnings.
