| Mid-year Report (26/08/2003 ) |
|
Sulzer Chemtech's order for the first half year rose to CHF 170 million (+4%, adjusted +14%). Sales per mid-year increased to CHF 147 million (+9%, adjusted +21%). Thanks to this volume growth and the positive effect of cost saving measures, EBITA greatly improved from CHF 5 million in the previous year to CHF 10 million per mid 2003. The impressive growth is mainly attributable to projects in Europe, the Near East, China, and some South East Asian countries while the market situation in North America remains unsatisfactory. For the whole year, Sulzer Chemtech expects a continuation of the strong overall trend and, in particular, a substantial improvement in operation income compared with 2002.
