Sales
The positive momentum of the Cork Stoppers BU drove sales growth;
EBITDA reached 22.4 M€, an increase of 22% vs. 2016. Profitability benefited from higher operational efficiency, better yields and lower staff costs. Raw material prices increased in the 2017 campaign (+11%), other raw materials (cork waste and virgin cork) followed this trend;
Increased operational efficiency, the better use of cork, developing solutions to improve the sensorial quality of discs; exploring alternative sources of raw materials are key challenges for the future;

Sales
Sales momentum reflecting a weaker USD and lower activity levels, specifically in the Furnishing and Sport Surfaces segments;

Sales to Europe and Asia performed well;
EBITDA decreased to 15.0 M $\epsilon$ (-12%), impacted by the USD, lower activity levels, increased raw material (cork and non-cork) and operating costs, higher impairments and a less favorable product mix;
New Innovation Cork Plant to support the development of a portfolio of new products, using alternative raw materials and testing new technologies. Product re-engineering, raw materials and resource optimization will also be essential in 2018.
Sales
Sales negatively impacted by the stoppage of supplies of granulated cork to the Composite Cork BU (excluding this, sales increased 4.7%);
MDFachada and re-granulated cork for sport stadiums were the main engines of sales growth. Major sales decrease in the Middle East, while Europe and Asia showed positive sales growth;
EBITDA stood at 1.7 M $\epsilon$ (-22%), on lower activity and increased raw material prices, despite higher efficiency gains and lower operating costs;
Expanded insulation corkboard is a 100% natural product, using only cork as a raw material, and highly sensitive to changes in the prices and yields of specific raw material lots;
Activity in 2018 should be driven by the development of new products and alternative applications for façades and insulation solutions, supported by a growing awareness of and demand for ecologically-friendly products.
