Westag & Getalit AG announced preliminary earnings results for the year 2014. At EUR 223.1 million, sales revenues were down by 0.5% on the previous year's EUR 224.2 million. This primarily reflects the strong influence of the weak final quarter of 2014, in which revenues were down by 5.5% on the same period of the previous year.

Earnings before taxes amounted to EUR 8.9 million compared to EUR 9.1 million a year ago. The moderate 2.8% decline is attributable to the reduction in revenues in the final quarter. Net profit moved in sync with earnings before taxes and came in at EUR 6.4 million.

Earnings per share amounted to EUR 1.15 compared to EUR 1.16 a year ago per ordinary share, and EUR 1.21 per preference share compared to EUR 1.22 a year ago.
