Adler Modemärkte AG: EBITDA Expected to Rise to EUR 27-30 Million in 2017 Despite Slight Drop in Revenue
Adler Modemärkte AG / Key word(s): Forecast/Dividend Efficiency and Cost Saving Measures Increasingly Bear Fruit: Adler Modemärkte AG is confident of a significant rise in earnings for financial year 2017 despite the persistently difficult conditions. The Executive Board expects EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortisation) to increase to EUR 27-30 million. The figure for 2016 exceeded the Company’s own forecasts, reaching EUR 23.3 million on the back of a strong fourth quarter. The improvements expected in the new financial year stem from the increasingly positive effects of the cost saving and efficiency measures introduced in the previous year. On the heels of these measures, earnings will more than offset the slight drop in revenue as against 2016 (EUR 544.6 million) expected as a result of the challenging industry environment. The Executive Board and the Supervisory Board will propose that the Company’s Annual General Meeting on 24 May 2017 resolve not to distribute a dividend for the 2016 financial year (previous year: EUR 0.50); this decision follows the decrease in net profit for 2016 to EUR 0.4 million (previous year: EUR 7.9 million) and the Company’s focus on a conservative CAPEX strategy and cash flow management in light of the current conditions in 2017. The full annual financial statements and 2016 Annual Report will be published as announced on 16 March 2017.
