PSI with Strong New Orders and Stable EBIT in First Quarter - Seite 2
1.5 million Euros, was constant (31 March 2015: 1.5 million Euro). The
Mines&Roads business worked on maintenance transition of the mining system.
The Metals business, which is still slowed by the slump in the steel
industry in particular in Asia, was able to significantly increase its
volume of new orders. The automotive and industry business received a
license extension order from a major customer in rail vehicle production
and improved its result. Logistics reaffirmed its good results from the
previous year and increased its new orders.
In Infrastructure Management (transportation and security), sales decreased
by 8 % to 5.5 million Euros (31 March 2015: 6.0 million Euros), the EBIT
dropped to -0.4 million Euros (31 March 2015, adjusted: -0.2 million
Euros). In Southeast Asia, the revival of new orders continued, sales and
earnings were, however, encumbered by final work in a major market entry
project and capacity adjustments.
The number of employees in the group decreased to 1,645 on 31 March 2016
(31 March 2015: 1,718) due to capacity adjustments in exports. The cash
flow from normal operations was, as in the previous year, characterised by
maintenance payments and improved by over 90 % to 2.9 million Euros (31
March 2015: 1.5 million Euros). The liquidity increased to 41.2 million
Euros (31 March 2015: 31.6 million Euros) allowing the proposed dividend
payment, share buybacks, financing of sales in seasonal pattern and smaller
acquisitions.
PSI presented an Industriy 4.0 swarm manufacturing process with
Internet-of-Things chips at the Hanover Trade Fair. The process is led by
PSI software products, which are already migrated to the PSI Java platform,
for order management, optimisation, scheduling, data acquisition, control
system and logistics with automatic rescheduling in supply disruptions.
Compared to a conventional assembly line production, swarm production
allows for substantially higher production efficiency, flexibility and
reliability
PSI expects important contracts to be placed in Germany and for exports in
the coming quarters. Uncertainties continue to exist with regard to the
development of raw material prices and currency exchange rates so that
management maintains the cautious targets for 2016 set down in the 2015
annual report.
On the basis of its own software products, PSI AG develops and integrates
complete solutions for energy management (gas, oil, electricity, heat,
energy trading), production management (mining, metals, automotive,
mechanical engineering, logistics) and infrastructure management for
transport and safety. PSI was founded in 1969 and employs 1,650 persons
worldwide. www.psi.de
