Bechtle Reports Excellent Start into the Year
- Revenue up 13.2 per cent
- EBT climbs almost 20 per cent
- Headcount grows to 7,269
Neckarsulm, 13 May 2016 - Bechtle AG has made an excellent start into the
fiscal year 2016. From January to March, revenue grew 13.2 per cent to
EUR704.9 million. The IT solutions offered in the fields of mobility,
modern data centre architectures and IT security were among the growth
drivers. In the first quarter, EBT amounted to EUR26.9 million, a year-on-
year increase of almost 20 per cent. The EBT margin climbed to 3.8 per
cent, a very high figure for the beginning of the year. As of 31 March
2016, the headcount increased to 7,269, which is 598 employees or 9.0 per
cent more than in the prior year.
"Bechtle AG has started the year with an excellent first quarter. Our
competences in the field of sustainable IT architectures provides the
business with noticeable stimuli. Our customers want to have a strong
partner who can competently assist them in all technology areas of modern
IT solutions - and that is exactly what they appreciate about Bechtle,"
says Dr. Thomas Olemotz, Chairman of the Executive Board of Bechtle AG.
Solution Portfolio Strengthens Domestic System House Business
The IT system house & managed services segment stepped up its revenue 16.8
per cent to EUR470.4 million. The domestic system houses, whose revenue
climbed 19.5 per cent to EUR423.6 million, were the growth drivers. With
its comprehensive IT solution and managed services portfolio, this Bechtle
segment effectively addresses the needs of its customers. In the reporting
quarter, the segment operating earnings went up to EUR18.3 million (prior
year: EUR16.5 million).Though the EBIT margin had benefited from special
effects in the corresponding prior-year quarter, it managed to reach a
level of 3.9 per cent, a figure very close to the prior-year figure of 4.1
per cent.
Efficient Processes in the Trading Business
In the reporting period, the revenue in the IT e-commerce segment went up
6.7 per cent to EUR234.5 million. The domestic and foreign operations each
accounted for an almost equal share of the dynamics. The growth was
especially significant in the field of servers and mobile devices such as
