Amadeus FiRe AG

First quarter results of fiscal year 2017 - Seite 2

Selling and administrative expenses amounted to EUR 12,529k in the reporting period (previous year: EUR 11,072k). The increase of 13.2% resulted primarily from higher staff costs due to the expansion of the sales organization, salary increases and higher performance-based bonuses in sales.


EBITA for the first quarter amounted to EUR 7,434k (previous year: EUR 5,629k), representing an increase of EUR 1,805k or 32.1%. However, comparability with the previous year is limited due to the high number of billable days in the quarter under review. EBITA margin rose by 2.4 percentage points to 16.6% (previous year: 14.0%).


Net profit for the period under review amounted to EUR 5,029k (previous year: EUR 3,794k). Earnings per share based on the net profit for the period attributable to the ordinary shareholders of the parent increased by 24 cents to EUR 0.96 in the first quarter (previous year: EUR 0.72).


Further details on the unchanged forecast can be found in the forecast section of the 2016 annual report.
