Again improvement in revenues in the Digital Mammography segment
Bremen, May 24, 2016 – MeVis Medical Solutions AG [ISIN: DE000A0LBFE4], a leading provider of medical imaging software, today announced its figures for the first quarter in 2016.
Sales in the first quarter of 2016 came to EUR 3,876 k, up 14 % on the first quarter of 2015 (prev. year EUR 3,408 k). The sales growth of EUR 468 k is largely due to maintenance revenues which have increased since mid-2015. Sales in the new license business improved by a satisfactory 9 % to EUR 1,701 k, while sales in the maintenance business increased by 27 % to EUR 1,889 k, now accounting for 49 % of total sales. Sales in the Digital Mammography segment were up by 16 % to EUR 3,145 k (prev. year: EUR 2,721 k), while sales in the Other Diagnostics segment improved slightly by 6 % to EUR 731 k (prev. year: EUR 687 k).
Operating costs in the first quarter of 2016 fell slightly due to a slight drop in staff costs and on the back of other operating expenses. Staff costs decreased by 2 % in the first quarter. Other operating expenses in the first quarter declined to EUR 529 k compared to the previous year’s quarter (prev. year: EUR 549 k).
After depreciation and amortization of EUR 448 k (down 21 % year on year primarily due to lower scheduled amortization of capitalized development costs), EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) amounted to EUR 1,183 k in the period under review (up a significant 118 % on the previous year’s figure of EUR 542 k) and an EBIT margin of 31 % (prev. year: 16 %).
The financial result deteriorated by EUR -997 k year on year to EUR -859 k. Negative effects from the US dollar exchange rate combined with a higher share of liquidity in US dollars were largely responsible for this.
Due to the fiscal unity which became effective as of January 1, 2016, the tax result amounted to EUR 0 k (prev. year: expense of EUR 42 k).
After-tax earnings consequently fell by EUR 315 k to EUR 324 k, which is equivalent to undiluted earnings per share of EUR 0.18 (prev. year: EUR 0.37).
