Grammer AG provided earnings guidance for the year 2019. For the year, the company forecasts a modest increase in revenue in core business areas and expects revenue growth for the group, so including TMD, in the area of EUR 2.1 billion. The company expects the earnings before interest and tax to arise clearly above the figure for the fiscal year of 2018. That can be mainly driven by the lower exceptional expenses, obviously, the integration of TMD and its contribution to the P&L as well as the better cost base and performance of the entire group. The company also forecast operating EBIT to exceed the level of fiscal year 2018.
