Youbisheng Green Paper AG, the German holding company of a Chinese manufacturer of environmentally friendly linerboard for the growing Chinese consumer goods industry, outperformed its ambitious targets in the first nine months 2011 due to strong revenue growth in Q3 2011. Despite the company's limited capacities, revenues increased by 13.8% to EUR 68.0 million in the first nine months of 2011. Due to a strong third quarter, sales growth picked up compared to H1 2011. Quarter on quarter alone, revenues were up 15.1% compared to Q3 2010. For the first nine months 2011, EBIT increased by 8% to EUR 16.1 million. This represents an EBIT margin of 23.6%. 'Through a higher outsourcing volume and a shift to unique high-value products we were able to reach such a strong result,' states Haiming Huang, CEO of Youbisheng Green Paper AG. Youbisheng's double-sided testliner, made of 100% recycled paper, continues to dominate the growth. The positive sales development of the double-sided testliner will contribute to the company's profitability in the future. In the past months, Youbisheng's R&D team has developed a new heavy single-sided testliner with a higher basic weight of 400 g/m2. It was successfully introduced into the market in October. The company is still moving in line with its goal to increase sales in other provinces of China. In the reporting period, the company has raised its sales to outside Fujian and Quangdong province, selling the products to the provinces Anhui, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Hunan and Hubei. Group equity increased from EUR 26.1 million as of 31 December 2010 to EUR 40.9 million as of 30 September 2011. This increase is due to the profit generated from operations as well as an increase in new shares and capital contribution. The equity ratio was approx. 64% at the end of the reporting period. Net cash generated from operations was up from EUR 8.3 million in the first nine months of 2010 to EUR 13.5 million in the respective period 2011.
