Sales and Earnings Continue to Improve

 

In fiscal year 2002/03, the MVV Energie Group raised its sales and its key economic indicators compared to last year’s relatively high levels. We consider this to be a remarkable success in light of the extremely difficult market climate and heavy investments in our renewable energy segment for our future growth. We will thus have an excellent starting position for the intensification in competition to be expected in the energy business.

 

With competition mounting in our sector, which was characterised by competitors both in Germany and abroad, and with the economy continuing to be weak in Germany, our sales increased by Euro 16 million or 1% compared to last year to Euro 1.7 billion. This rise mainly resulted from higher sales in our business segments for district heating, gas, water and value-added services. Our participations in Ingolstadt, Solingen, Brno and Bydgoszcz that were consolidated for the whole year for the first time achieved sales of Euro 237 million for fiscal year 2002/03 compared to Euro 164 million for 9 months last year. Our Polish participation in Szczecin, which has been proportionately consolidated for the first time since the beginning of this fiscal year, contributed Euro 11 million to total sales in 2002/03. Taking the international consulting business into account, the MVV Energie Group’s foreign sales went up by 27% from Euro 113 million last year to Euro 144 million in 2002/03. Foreign sales accounted for a 9% share of total sales (7% last year) during the past fiscal year.
