Manfred Bender, CEO of Pfeiffer Vacuum, remains optimistic for the current year: “Order intake in the year to date has been at a similar level as in the previous year. Since some larger projects should materialize in the second half of the year, we expect FY 2016 sales of approximately 470 million euros. This should coincide with an improvement of operating profit (EBIT). We regard this as a conservative assessment which could be influenced by positive project decisions of our customers.” Order intake in the 1st quarter of 2016 amounted to EUR 117.4 million.
