In France, syzygy turned EBIT positive in September and maintained profitability through the remainder of the year.

Issuer`s information/explanation remarks concerning this ad hoc announcement:

Trading during 1st quarter 2001 According to provisional estimates, sales for the first quarter of 2001 will amount to EUR 4 million. This corresponds to a growth rate of around 8% over the first quarter of 2000. Management reports continued strong sales growth in Germany. The UK had a difficult January and February, although sales picked up in March. In France there has been a sharp downturn in Q1 revenues. For these reasons, the Group expects to post a loss of EUR 0.5 million for the first quarter of 2001. Through strong relationships with existing customers, the acquisition of new customers, the launch of a new licence fee based version of the SyCOMAX content management software and strict cost management, syzygy will continue to pursue profitable growth. For the year 2001 as a whole, syzygy AG expects sales to grow by around 20% to ca. EUR 21 million, with an EBITDA margin of approximately 6% and the strongest growth coming from Germany.

Nachtrag Q- Zahlen -SYZY macht Verlust


Stronger Cell is awaiting tougher times
 
Daniel Svensson, Dagens Industri, 2001-04-26
Cell Network`s interim report from yesterday has two faces. At the same time as the losses are decreasing, the company is warning for a tougher market. It is an agreeable piece of news that the sales increased by 11 percent to SEK407 million during the first quarter, and that the loss before goodwill depreciation was reduced to SEK25 million. But the CEO of the group, Niklas Flyborg, is awaiting tougher times.
"Especially in the light of Ericsson`s saving package, I think that we have to consider a harder market situation, even if I hold on to the goal that Cell will increase its turnover by 20 to 25 percent this year," says Flyborg.


Profitabel March
 
During the first quarter, Cell Network`s average utilisation rate was 66 percent. According to Niklas Flyborg, CEO of Cell Network, the utilisation rate has increased month by month. He says also that the group was profitable during March. To reach profitability for the whole year 2001, Cell will introduce a package of measures called `push for profit`, but no details are yet announced.
