The development of sales and earnings of Geratherm Medical was weaker compared to the same quarter last year. The reasons for that include a strong first quarter in the prior year and loss of sales during the first three months of this year on the market in South America. These two factors have a significant influence on the reported earnings. When viewed separately, the first quarter of 2014 was considerably stronger in terms of earnings compared to the past three quarters.
With an EBITDA margin of 13.0% and an EBIT margin of 9.0% during the first quarter, we were operationally stronger than during the previous quarters.
The sales decreased by -12.0% to EUR 3.8 million in the first quarter of 2014 for the aforementioned reasons. The decrease in sales was mainly attributed to Brazil (-429 kEUR). The company's export share was 84.9% (2013: 86.7%).
The gross profit was at about the same level as in the previous year (-1.4%) with 2,278 kEUR. That means the company's total gross profit margin for the first three months is 59.2% (2013: 52.8%).
The operating result (EBIT) was during the 1st. quarter 346 kEUR (2013: 422 kEUR). The result from ordinary activities amounted to 300 kEUR (2013: 371 kEUR). The shareholders' result after taxes was 190 kEUR (2013: 255 kEUR) or EUR 0.04 per share (2013: EUR 0.05 per share).
| I/14 | IV/13 | III/13 | II/13 | I/13 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sales | 3,847 | 3,909 | 4,220 | 4,324 | 4,374 |
| EBITDA | 13.0% | 5.8% | 8.7% | 8.9% | 14.2% |
| EBIT | 346 | 30 | 161 | 180 | 422 |
| EPS (EUR) | 0.04 | 0.14 | 0.01 | 0.07 | 0.05 |
| Cash flow | 479 | 179 | 266 | 216 | 611 |
The sales development varied greatly in the individual regions. The relevance with regard to the regional sales development is limited due to the relatively brief threemonth reporting period. The sales in Europe experienced a slight decrease of 2.1%. As already mentioned, the market in South America, Brazil in particular here, reported the largest decrease in sales of -41.7%. The sales in Germany did not change for the first three months. Market development in the Middle East was positive. Here the company was able to report a 35.3% increase in sales. The sales in the USA declined by -40.3%. This can essentially be attributed to a postponing of orders and will be offset in the next quarters. The sales in Other countries enjoyed an increase of 7.0%.
Sales by regions 01.01. - 31.03.2014
Sales by segments also provide a varied picture compared to the previous quarters. The sales revenues of the Healthcare Diagnostic segment declined by 11.8% due to the decrease in sales on the Brazilian market. The largest share of sales, the sales of gallium-filled thermometer, was slightly positive with a 42.1% share of the overall sales with a 1.7% growth.
The Respiratory segment, in which we offer products for testing pulmonary function, reported a 12.0% decline in sales during the first three months. We assume that we can more than compensate the temporary drop in sales in the next few months.
By comparison, the sales reported by the Medical Warming Systems segment were 32.7% lower for the first three months of this year due to the delivery of a larger order during the first quarter of last year. Even in this regard, we are expecting a prompt recovery of the decreased sales in the next few months.
The Cardio/Stroke segment was able to expand its quarterly sales again by +64.7%. The growth of this segment is expected to continue into the next quarters.
The operating result exhibited a negative development during the first quarter in light of the decline in sales. However, the gross profit remained with EUR 2.3 million almost on the same level as last year.
Higher personnel expenses did put a strain of the operating result compared to the prior year. With an EBIT of 346 kEUR and an EBIT margin of 9.0% we were still able to generate a good operating result for the quarter in spite of the decline in sales.
The financial result amounted to -46 kEUR, of which -54 kEUR (2013: -57 kEUR) accounted for interests and similar expenses. Here the interest charges of the subsidiary Geratherm do Brasil represented a burden with 36 kEUR. Income from dividends and securities were not reported during the first quarter. The result from ordinary activities for the first three months of the current fiscal year was 300 kEUR (2013: 372 kEUR).
Taxes on profit amounted to 120 kEUR (2013: 124 kEUR). The effective taxes amounted, however, to only 1 kEUR. The remaining amount of 119 kEUR accounted for the reduction of non-cash effective deferred tax assets due to the use of losses carried forward. All in all, a consolidated net profit for the first three months of 180 kEUR (2013: 247 kEUR) was reported.
During the first three months of the current fiscal year, a net result was generated for shareholders of the parent company in the amount of 190 kEUR (2013: 255 kEUR). The result per share for the first quarter of 2013 was EUR 0.04 (2013: EUR 0.05).
The financial base of Geratherm Medical is stable. The balance sheet total of EUR 28.9 million is essentially formed by equity capital in the amount of EUR 20.3 million. The equity-to-assets ratio was 70.4% as of the reporting date (2013: 69.1%).
As of 31 March 2014 the company had cash, cash equivalents and securities in the amount of EUR 15.2 million (2013: EUR 13.5 million). Thus, the company's financial situation is above-average.
There were no significant changes with regard to long-term assets. On the whole, this position was reported with EUR 5.0 million (-3.9%).
The intangible assets were with 702 kEUR slightly above the prior year's level. The tangible assets declined by 2.7% to EUR 3.2 million. The deferred taxes decreased by the use of the losses carried forward by 11.0% to 964 kEUR.
With regard to short-term assets, there was an increase in supplies by 12.8% to EUR 5.1 million. Due to the postponement of deliveries at the end of the quarter, the finished goods and products item increased by 26.9% to EUR 2.7 million.
The level of the receivables and other assets changed only slightly during the last three months by +2.4% and amounted to EUR 3.6 million as of 31 March 2014.
At the end of the quarter, the company held securities worth EUR 4.4 million (+1.6%). The cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 10.7 million (-3.3%)
The gross cash flow for the first three months of the current fiscal year was 479 kEUR (2013: 611 kEUR). The cash flow from operations was -233 kEUR (2013: 1,154 kEUR). The cash flow from investments amounted to -85 kEUR (2013: -383 kEUR).
The focal points of our research and development efforts have not changed and primarily involved the business segments Medical Warming Systems, Respiratory and Cardio/Stroke. After completing the licensing stage for our new women care products at the start of the fiscal year, we are currently focusing our activities on the marketing of these products.
Geratherm's overall strategy is to establish for the future good distinguishing characteristics with highly innovative products that are associated with complex regulatory hurdles in order to allow us to hold our own in competition with significant product advantages.
The Geratherm Group had a staff of 119 in total as of 31 March 2014 (2013: 116). 94 employees are in Germany.
For the second quarter, we are anticipating considerable growth from operations in terms of sales and earnings. The formation of Geratherm's new wholly owned subsidiary Sensor Systems GmbH is expected to have a positive impact. The company was founded at the end of the first quarter and aims to focus on sensor and filter production for the Respiratory segment.
We are looking forward to meeting with our shareholders at this year's annual general meeting on 27 May 2014, at 1:30 PM in "Hotel Tanne" in Ilmenau.

The interim consolidated financial statements of Geratherm Medical AG were prepared for the first three months of the 2014 fiscal year in accordance with the rules of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) valid on the date of the financial statements and in consideration of the guidance provided by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as is mandatory in the European Union.
The accounting, evaluation and consolidation principles were maintained, as shown in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the 2013 Fiscal Year.
The valuation of assets and liabilities is based in part on estimates and/or assumptions about future developments. For instance, the statements on economic useful life for long-term assets are based on estimates and assumptions. In addition, the assessment of the intrinsic value of deferred taxation allocated to the losses carried forward and the impairment tests of the cash-generating units and the assets is based on the corporate planning, which of course involves uncertainties such that the actual values may deviate from the made assumptions and estimates in individual cases. Estimates and the underlying assumptions are regularly checked and evaluated with regard to possible impact on accounting.
