Q1-Q3

Burgenland Holding AG Q1-Q3 2010/11

  • • Dividends of BEGAS and Vienna Stock Exchange at last year's levels
  • • BEWAG payout at half of last year's level
  • • Interest income higher than last year
  • • Advertisement for a seat on the Management Board

Income situation

In addition to the prior distribution of BEGAS, the third quarter saw investment income from BEWAG and the Vienna Stock Exchange. While the payout of the Vienna Stock Exchange was the same as last year, the distribution from BEWAG, as had been agreed at the end of the second quarter already, reduced to half of last year's level. Therefore, overall investment income is about EUR2.7m lower than last year.

A slight increase in other operating expenses is matched by an increase in interest income. As a result of the decline in investment income, pre-tax profit is also about EUR2.7m below last year's results.

Balance sheet and capital structure

Due to the lower investment income, the company's equity capital has also decreased by approximately EUR2.7m compared to the last balance sheet date. Likewise, the balance sheet total declined. The equity ratio of 99.9%, however, is unchanged compared to the balance sheet date of the previous year.

Advertisement for a seat on the Management Board

Günther Ofner is taking over a Management Board position at Flughafen Wien AG and will therefore vacate his seat on the Management Board of Burgenland Holding AG as of September 2011. Therefore, the company has advertised the position of a member of the Management Board in accordance with the Austrian law governing the filling of positions. A decision on his successor will probably be taken in early September.

Outlook

The stable earnings structure of Burgenland Holding AG renders significant risks and uncertainties in the final quarter unlikely.
