Financial position
In the first three months, the cash flow provided by operating activities
amounted to - EUR 3.2 million and was thus lower than the level in the
previous year (EUR 5.7 million). This decrease is mainly attributable to
the EUR 7.3 million decrease in trade payables in the first quarter of
2013.

The financial liabilities of the Deufol Group increased in the first three
months of the fiscal year by EUR 4.5 million to EUR 75.4 million. As cash
and financial receivables simultaneously decreased (- EUR 1.1 million), the
net financial liabilities rose somewhat more strongly, by EUR 5.6 million
from EUR 55.0 million at the end of the year to EUR 60.6 million.
