Interim Group Management Report (unaudited)
1. Overall revenue and earnings development in the quarter
WashTec looks back on a strong first quarter. Revenue through to March 2017, at €101.2m (prior year: €76.8m), was 31.8% higher than in the weak first quarter of 2016. This growth was notably driven by Equipment and Service, while revenue performance in Chemicals was likewise very positive. Major customers contributed substantially to the revenue growth. Adjusted for exchange rate effects, revenue increased by 30.6% in the first quarter. As a result of the revenue growth, EBIT improved significantly to €12.1m (prior year: €3.7m). With the order backlog substantially larger at the end of the first quarter than a year earlier, the Company expects a strong second quarter. Revenue growth of 31.8%
On March 22, 2017, on publication of the Annual Report for fiscal year 2016, the annual press conference was held at the Augsburg head office along with a conference call. The Management Board presented the annual results 2016 to representatives of the local press, banks, investors and analysts.
WashTec exhibited at trade fairs in Austria, China and Spain. In Beijing, a fully equipped premium rollover was shown in live operation for the first time and sold. In North America, the first premium tunnel out of the European product line was sold and presented at the ICA in Las Vegas at the beginning of April.
After the sustained positive trend in order intake during the first quarter and the resulting large order backlog at the end of the first quarter, the Company is now aiming for double-digit revenue growth to at least €410m for the year as a whole, with an EBIT margin in excess of 12%. The strong growth relative to 2016 in the first half of the year is likely to slow down in the second half given the strong growth seen in the corresponding prior-year quarters.
2. Report on economic position
2.1 Economic and competitive environment
The economic and competitive environment largely corresponded to the situation described in the Group Management Report 2016. There were no significant changes in technology and none are foreseeable.
2.2 Dividend payment
The Management Board and Supervisory Board are proposing a dividend of €2.10 per eligible share for this year's Annual General Meeting on May 3, 2017. This corresponds to a dividend ratio for shareholders of some 92% of net income. 58.9% of the distribution is expected to be made out of the tax contribution account. Based on a share price of €56.90 on March 31, 2017, the dividend yield is 3.7%.

Revenue growth in Europe and North America
Revenue performance in the first quarter was driven by the sustained positive trend in Europe (with an increase of 25.8% or €16.1m) and strong revenue growth in North America (increase of 82.5% or €9.9m). The increase in North America relates to business with major customers. Revenue in the Asia/Pacific region decreased by 30.4% compared with the prior-year quarter. The decrease came in Australia due to less order intakes in the last few months. Revenue in China was higher than in the prior year and will also sustain a positive trend in the months ahead. The forecast for Asia/Pacific is reviewed at the middle of the year.
In US dollars, revenue in North America was USD 23.4m (prior year: USD 13.2m).
Group revenue increased by 31.8% in the first quarter (Q1 2017: €101.2m; Q1 2016: €76.8m).

| EBT | 12.0 | 3.6 | 8.4 | 233.3 |
* Revenues plus change in inventory minus cost of materials
High EBIT margin of 12% in Q1
The gross profit margin decreased due to the changed product and customer mix, to 57.9% compared with 59.7% in the prior year.
Personnel expenses went up compared with the prior-year quarter by €3.2m to €32.1m (prior year: €29.0) as a result of the larger workforce and wage increases. The Group had 58 more employees at the end of March than a year earlier. This reflects the positive development of the business and investment in further organic growth. A smaller increase in the workforce is planned for remainder of this year. The size of the workforce has held constant for the last four months.
Other operating expenses (including other taxes) increased by €2.2m to €14.0m (prior year: €11.8m).
The increase in other operating expenses notably reflected higher costs of contract workers due to higher capacity utilization. Costs in the first quarter were also higher due to participation in a number of local trade fairs and travel expenses. Currency gains and losses did not have a material net impact on Group earnings or the prior-year comparative figures.
EBITDA increased by €8.5m to €14.5m (prior year: €6.0m).

EBIT increased by €8.4m to €12.1m (prior year: €3.7m).
EBIT, Q1, in € m, IFRS
The EBIT increase in Europe and North America is mainly a result of the revenue growth. In the Asia/Pacific segment, the decrease in revenue and higher trade fair expenditure resulted in a lower EBIT. Movements in the US dollar-euro exchange rate had no material impact on the operating business. Measurement of foreign currencydenominated assets and liabilities as of the reporting date had a €–0.1m impact on earnings (prior year: €–0.1m).
Consolidated net income increased to €8.6m (prior year: €2.6m). The lower tax rate is primarily due to the use of tax loss carryforwards for which no deferred taxes were recognized.
Earnings per share (basic = diluted) increased to €0.64 (prior year: €0.19) due to the higher consolidated net income.

3. Outlook, opportunities and risk report
3.1 Outlook
Projects to boost sales activities and operational improvements continue as planned.
Following the end of the first quarter, the Company is targeting double-digit revenue growth to at least €410m in 2017, with an EBIT margin in excess of 12%.
The expectations analog to the forecast of the Annual Report for segmental performance are as follows:
- Europe: significant increase in revenues and earnings
- North America: significant increase in revenues and earnings
- Asia/Pacific: significant increase in revenues and earnings
The above forecast for Asia/Pacific from the Annual Report 2016 is currently being reviewed and will be adjusted if necessary at the end of the first half of the year. This has no effect on the forecasts for the Group as a whole.
The outlook is subject to uncertainties.
The outlook for the remaining specified key performance indicators given in the Annual Report 2016 likewise continues to apply.
3.2 Opportunities and risks for group development

Jan 01, 2018 | Oct 29, 2016 | IFRS 15 replaces all existing revenue recognition standards – notably IAS 18 Revenue and IAS 11 Construction Contracts.

Information on its impacts will be provided by WashTec in the next nine months. |
| IFRS 9 | Financial Instruments | Jan 01, 2018 | Nov 29, 2016 | IFRS 9 addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities while introducing new rules for hedge accounting and a new im pairment model. Additional designation options are provided for hedge accounting. The new standard also simplifies effec tiveness testing and requires additional notes disclosures. It is not yet possible to assess the impacts of the new standard on the WashTec Group. Information on its impacts will be provided by WashTec in the next nine months. |

3. Segment reporting
Segmentation using the management approach at the WashTec Group is by sales territories. The sales territories are defined as the regions Europe, North America and Asia/Pacific.

In fiscal year 2016, Eastern Europe was included for reporting purposes in the Europe segment. The Core Europe segment was renamed the Europe segment as of the year-end 2016. The structure of the North America and Asia/ Pacific segments is unchanged.

Due to their short terms, the fair values of trade receivables, trade payables and cash and cash equivalents as well as other financial liabilities generally match their carrying amounts. The fair value of finance lease and loan liabilities is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at current market interest rates.
Foreign exchange forwards are measured at fair value using expected exchange rates quoted on a regulated market.
The fair value of these derivative financial instruments is classified by maturity as follows:
| in €k | Mar 31, 2017 Dec 31, 2016 | |
|---|---|---|
| Current | 31 | 55 |
| Total | 31 | 55 |
