Net cash (EUR 74.5 million) is considerably higher than 12 months ago (EUR 64.1 million) despite the first-time inclusion of EUR 14.2 million of leasing liabilities as financial debt due to the implementation of IFRS 16 and the payment of a EUR 13.4 million dividend.
Based on the strong order intake of the recent months the expected sales growth of 4 to 5 % could be surpassed on a full-year basis at constant exchange rates.
