Trading update 3Q13

Kortrijk, Belgium, 23 October 2013 - Barco expects low single digit growth for 2013

Today Barco released selected financial results for the third quarter ended 30 September 2013.

During the third quarter of 2013 Barco booked 288.4 million euro of incoming orders, which is in line with last year's order intake. Year to date orders were 844.1 million euro versus 834.1 million euro in 2012.

Barco's order book as of 30 September 2013 stood at 463.4 million euro, up 23.4 million euro compared to 30 June 2013 and 39.9 million euro down versus September 2012.

Barco's sales were 255.7 million euro, a decrease of 10.3% compared to the third quarter of 2012. For the first nine months of 2013, sales were 853.6 million euro, up 4.6% compared to the same period last year.

Quote of the CEO

"Barco's third quarter was robust in orders but weak in shipments," said Eric Van Zele, President and CEO. "This was particularly true in Advanced Visualization and Defense & Aerospace. Declining shipments for Digital Cinema however were fully compensated for by gains in Corporate AV."

"Given the third quarter's performance and the strength of the euro, our outlook for the full year is more cautious. Barco now expects to report low single digit growth with an absolute EBITDA contribution similar to that of last year."
