Press Release Trading update 3th quarter 2017
Year-to-date revenues amount to 252.0 MEUR versus 238.9 MEUR in 2016, 5.5% above the comparable number for the same period in 2016.
Revenue during Q3 was 78.5 million euro, 5.3% higher compared to the same period in 2016.
The order backlog at the end of September 2017 was 14.8% higher than at the end of September 2016. Excluding orders that will not be delivered in 2018 and considering the finished goods and work in progress, production backlog is 17.1% higher than as at September 2016.
Based on the above, the JENSEN-GROUP expects 2017 revenue to be higher than last year. The most important risk factors remain rapid changes in demand, availability of financing to our customers, high exchange rate volatility and fluctuating raw material, energy and transport prices.
On February 1, 2017 JENSEN-GROUP decided to acquire one of its major German suppliers. This backward integration improves our ability to control the quality of the product and to react faster to market conditions. As this transaction represents only a change from third party supplier to internal supplier, it does not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated figures.
On May 11, 2017, the JENSEN-GROUP increased its shareholding in TOLON GLOBAL MAKINA Sanyi Ve Tikaret Sirketi A.S., Turkey, by 6.33% to 36.33%. The JENSEN-GROUP has the option to acquire up to 49% of the shares within a period of three years.
