Neways sees stabilisation of turnover in third quarter driven by improved market sector spread

SON, 3 NOVEMBER 2015 - NEWAYS ELECTRONICS INTERNATIONAL N.V. (Neways) (Euronext: NEWAY) booked turnover of EUR 96.5 million in the third quarter of 2015, an increase of 7% compared to the same period of last year (EUR 89.9 million). This increase was largely due to a recovery in demand from clients in the semiconductor and automotive sector.

Compared to the first half year the revenue stabilizes in the third quarter of 2015. This is partly due to the decrease in the predictability of customers, whereby customers from different market sectors conduct a more tightening inventory policy towards the end of the year.

Outlook
In recent months, Neways has started the implementation of its group-wide improvement programme 'Up to the next level', which will further reinforce Neways' positioning as a one-stop provider in the Electronic Manufacturing Services (EMS) market. We expect that the results of the improvement programme will be visible next year. Based on an analysis of those results, we will assess which potential improvements and efficiency measures we can realise for each operating company.

Given the continued integration of the BuS Group and the resultant improved spread across market sectors, Neways is now in a better position to respond effectively to fluctuations in demand.

Based on our current information and assuming no major inventory corrections will take place at our customers in the coming months, it is expected that sales will stabilize in the second half of 2015 compared to the first half year.

Neways will publish its 2015 full year results on 23 February 2016 before the opening of the stock exchange.
