Euromicron AG announced consolidated earnings results for the first quarter of 2012. For the quarter, the company reported consolidated sales of around EUR 80.5 million against EUR 57.5 million for the same period a year ago. This positive trend is due not only to organic growth, but also the contribution made to consolidated sales by telent GmbH, which was acquired on June 7, 2011. The company's total operating performance rose from EUR 58.4 million to EUR 83.8 million year-on-year. EBIT was around EUR 5.7 million against EUR 4.1 million for the same period a year ago. EBITDA rose by just under 45% from EUR 5.2 million to EUR 7.5 million. Net profit for the period was EUR 3.4 million against EUR 2.4 million a year ago, giving undiluted earnings per share of EUR 0.50 compared with EUR 0.46 in the same period of the previous year. The company announced that the increase in net sales in the first quarter has laid the foundation for achieving the operational target of EUR 330 to EUR 345 million in 2012. The continuing high demand for infrastructure solutions in Germany also indicates that the company will perform well in 2012.
