  • For the nine months to 30 September 2019, the Instone Group significantly increased its year on year revenues to €296.4 million (previous year: €210.2 million). New sales contracts concluded in the nine-months to September 2019 as well as construction progress related to projects in revenue recognition led to a year on year increase in revenues of €86.2 million versus the previous year period. 1
  • Cost of materials increased to €286.1 million (previous year: €185.2 million) reflecting land price payments in relation to new as well as previously secured projects and increased construction activities. 2
  • Staff costs in the first nine month of 2019 amounted to €25.4 million (previous year: €22,6 million) reflecting the increase in FTEs to 293.0 (previous year: 258.6). 3
  • The increase of financing costs compared to the same period of last year, is related to the increase in gross debt. 4
  • Income taxes for the first nine months of the current year are about €-0.6 million (previous year: €-11.6 million). The favorable development and corresponding IFRS tax rate reflects the first time recognition of tax loss carry-forwards in fiscal year 2019. 5
