Sales
EBITDA
Sales growth reflecting higher cork prices and increased sales activity, mostly driven by the Cork Stoppers BU;
EBITDA increased by 52.9% to 24.2 M€, benefiting from strong sales and high cork prices, as well as a strict cost control and efficiency gains;
Despite the yoy improvement, EBITDA margins fell 1.4 p.p. from 1H18, reflecting consumption of raw-materials purchased at higher prices;
Significant price increases in recent cork campaigns: +11% in 2017 and +17% in 2018;
25.0% Acquisition of Herdade da Baliza will be an important step towards the implementation of the Forestry Intervention Program; intensive cork oak plantations, using fertigation, should result in increased productivity and profitability the cork oak forests and, consequently, the continued production of quality cork in the future.
9M17 figures include Bourrassé (3 months); 9M18 figures include Bourrassé, Sodiliège and Elfverson. Values in million euros.

Sales
No major improvements in sales performance in the three markets that have been constraining sales growth: the US, Russia and Germany;

Hydrocork® continued to outpace overall sales growth, even if pace of growth has decelerated; Hydrocork® accounted for more than 20% of this BU's sales;
EBITDA fell to 2.7 M€ on the back of lower activity levels, increased raw material prices, lower grinding yields, higher costs (sales force) and impairments; efficiency-oriented projects (Recork) showed good progresses;
New management team focused on launching sustainable flooring solutions, attaining manufacturing excellence and providing a reliable service; a new generation of sustainable products – SUBERTECH – water proof, PVC-free and carbon negative, to be presented at Domotex (January 2019);
Rationalization of product portfolio and measures to increase productivity and operational efficiency should support EBITDA margins improvements.
Sales
EBITDA

MDFachada's sales slightly below last year's, but expected to recover by the end of the year;
A weaker USD had a negative impact in the first nine months; at constant exchange rates, Insulation Cork Business Unit delivered a 10.3% increase in sales;
