Earnings Release • Jul 29, 2019

29 JULY 2019

Half-yearly revenue for 2019: €18 million

Consolidated data (in millions of euro)	S1 2019	S1 2018
Revenue	18.0	21.5

Revenue for Baikowski, a global specialist in the manufacture of ultra-pure alumina powders and formulations as well as of other high quality oxides and composites, has amounted to €18 million for the first half of 2019.

The level of half-yearly billings has little significance (since the Group's activity is subject to long-term cycles) and is only partly comparable to the same period of 2018 which had the benefit of a somewhat exceptional pattern of sales.

During the period, the Group's activity has nevertheless been marked by an excellent level of business in its markets for polishing and very technical applications (ceramics…), which has compensated for the general slowdown in the automotive and electronic markets and the expected contraction of the market for traditional lighting.
