PC-SPEZIALIST: Best first half-year in company history
Consolidated net profit +66%, Group sales +76%
Bielefeld, August 29, 2001: In the first half-year 2001 the provider of
franchise and cooperation systems for the IT market PC-SPEZIALIST Franchise AG
(Neuer Markt, security code number 687380) reached the best half-year result in
the companys history.
Compared to previous years period consolidated net profit rose by 66% to 1.50
million Euro (previous year: 0.90 million Euro). This means that PC-SPEZIALIST
was already able to reach 49% of the targeted 3.06 million Euro net profit for
the complete year 2001 in the usually weaker first half. In comparison to the
first half of the successful year 2000, profitability of the group increased
again. At that time achievement of targeted net profit merely amounted to 45%.
Group sales climbed by 76% from 4.65 million Euro to 8.21 million Euro. Earnings
per share also showed positive growth.They rose by 65% from 0.24 Euro (split
adjusted) in the relevant period of the previous year to 0.39 Euro in this year.
EBIT went up by 29% from 1.73 million Euro to 2.23 million Euro.
The consequent abandonment of central stock-keeping as well as the focus on
self-employed entrepreneurs proved to be competitive advantages, particularly in
a weak market surrounding.
In the first half of 2001 the group used the extra scope of investment provided
by the german fiscal reform for the acceleration of growth. As of June 30, 2001
altogether 862 partners belonged to the brands PC-SPEZIALIST and MICROTREND.
That was already 96% of the planned 896 partners for the complete year 2001. In
2001 group external sales are to rise up to 1 billion Euro.
PC-SPEZIALIST is expecting a continuing positive growth and a disproportionate
sales increase due to rising transaction volumes of the order system virtual
distribution. Consolidated net profit should step up to 3.06 million euro in
2001.
