Intershop publishes figures for first three months of 2015 - Seite 2
sharply from 32% to 39%. Operating expenses dropped by 24% to EUR 4.3
million. At EUR 0.7 million, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortisation (EBITDA) were positive (previous year: EUR -0.7 million).
Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) also improved significantly from
EUR -1.7 million to EUR -0.4 million. Intershop's net result for the first
quarter of 2015 totalled EUR -0.5 million (previous year: EUR -1.8
million). Earnings per share stood at EUR -0.02, compared to EUR -0.06 in
the previous year.
The liquidity situation has also improved notably since the end of 2014.
Liquid funds climbed from EUR 6.4 million to EUR 7.3 million. Operating
cash flow increased from EUR 0.7 million in the prior year period to EUR
1.5 million.
Jochen Moll, Board Spokesman of Intershop Communications AG said: "A large
number of new customers and the sharp rise in both product revenues and
adjusted service revenues in the typically weaker first quarter show that
Intershop set the right course last year to achieve growing revenues in all
business segments again in the medium term. We also improved our earnings
and have our costs firmly under control. In the medium run, we will further
reduce our dependence on individual large customers and return to
profitable growth on the basis of a strong increase in the number of new
customers."
The positive business trend will additionally be supported by the
commitment for a EUR 6 million financing package received a few days ago.
The package comprises a loan from Sparkasse Jena-Saale-Holzland which is
secured by a guaranty from the Federal State of Thuringia.
Ludwig Lutter, Chief Financial Officer of Intershop Communications AG said:
"The financing package will substantially increase our financial scope in
the medium term and will allow us to push ahead our ambitious product
innovations in the B2B segment and in the field of SaaS solutions."
