Consolidated Financial Statements 1st Quarter of Fiscal Year 2006 (01.01. – 31.03.2006)

After three months of the fiscal year the Group has achieved consolidated sales revenues of EUR k 15.019 (prior year EUR K 11.133), an increase of 34,9 per cent. The first quarter had three additional chargeable days compared to the prior year's quarter.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS and show the following revenues in the different services:

  • Temporary staffing EUR k 9.215 (prior year EUR k 6.137); an increase of 50,2 per cent
  • Interim and project management EUR k 2.436 (prior year EUR k 2.288); an increase of 6,5 per cent
  • Recruitment/permanent placement EUR k 1.166 (prior year EUR k 1.157); an increase of 0,8 per cent
  • Training & education EUR k 2.202 (prior year EUR k 1.551); an increase of 41,9 per cent

The growth of temporary staffing services is based on a significant volume growth. Sales of interim-/project management services have increased by 6,5 per cent despite a strong prior year's quarter.

Recruitment/permanent placement services are slightly above prior year, although significant increases have been achieved in the German market.

Training and education sales of Steuer-Fachschule Dr. Endriss increased by 15,2 per cent. Including the Academy for International Accounting, acquired in 2005, training and education services grew by 42 per cent compared to prior year.

After the first three months of the fiscal year the Group achieves a gross profit of EUR k 6.043 (EUR k 4.127 in prior year's quarter). The gross profit margin was 40,2 per cent compared to 37,1 per cent in prior year.

The increase of the gross profit margin is the result of an increased temporary staffing margin as well as two additional chargeable days compared to prior year's quarter.

The increased share of training and education sales on total sales improved the margin further.

Selling and administrative expenses increased by 25 per cent to EUR k 4.838 compared to EUR k 3.870 in prior year.

The increase is mainly due to additional variable compensation for sales staff as well as selling and administrative expenses of the Academy for International Accounting.

The operating profit totals EUR k 1.226, more than quadrupling prior year's EUR k 291. The EBITA margin for the first three months is 8,2 per cent (prior year 2,6 per cent). The planned result for the first quarter was exceeded.

The net income before minority interests for the first quarter totals EUR k 751 after EUR k 194 in the prior year.

The undiluted earnings per share according to IFRS amount to EUR 0,14 (prior year EUR 0,04).

Financial Situation

In the 1st quarter the cash flows from operating activities add up to EUR k 68 (prior year EUR k 194). The decrease of cash flows is mainly due to an increased working capital. This is caused by higher receivables due to the sales growth, additional prepayments and a decline of liabilities triggered by a change of payment dates for social security in Germany being effective January 1, 2006.

Net capital expenditure after three months amounts to EUR k 131 (prior year EUR k 136). Dividends of EUR k 773 have been paid to minority shareholders of Steuer-Fachschule Dr. Endriss and the Academy of International Accounting. Cash outlow for own stock repurchases was EUR k 439.

At March 31, 2006 the cash position totals to EUR k 11.601.

Prospects

Despite the less chargeable days in the current quarter compared to prior year it is expected to achieve a result on prior year's level.
