Preliminary sales of FACC AG increased in the 2016/17 business year by approx. 20.9 % to EUR 710.2 mill..

Because of the higher sales volume, preliminary net financial debt increased, after EUR 171.9 mill. in the previous year, moderate to EUR 197,0 mill. Compared the report figure at the end of the third quarter 2016/17, the net financial debt was reduced by more than EUR 40 mill.
