Westag & Getalit AG reported unaudited consolidated earnings results for the fiscal year 2017. For the period, the company’s sales revenues were EUR 234.4 million against EUR 233.0 million a year ago. The moderate year-on-year increase in revenues is attributable to the fact that business picked up in the fourth quarter of 2017. This was mainly due to the 8.8% rise in export revenues to EUR 54.6 million. Earnings before taxes amounted to EUR 9.1 million against EUR 10.5 million a year ago. Apart from an increase in several expense types, earnings declined also because of the comprehensive reorganisation of the product range in 2017. Net profit moved in sync with earnings before taxes and reached EUR 6.5 million against EUR 7.6 million a year ago.
