DGAP-News: IMPREGLON SE / Key word(s): Quarter Results IMPREGLON SE: Impreglon to continue strong growth / New record sales and profits in 1st quarter 2014 25.04.2014 / 07:40 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Impreglon to continue strong growth New record sales and profits in 1st quarter 2014 The high speed of acquisitions in recent years begins to bear fruit. Most of the companies acquired in 2010 - 2012 are now successfully integrated in the Impreglon group and contribute to the 1st quarter result with strongly improved profit margins. Most remarkable is the increase of earings before taxes by over 400% in comparison to the 1st quarter 2013. This may also be attributed to better sales and plant utilization for the whole group, while there are still sufficient reserves for future growth. Assuming a stable world economy for the full year management is optimistic to reach the projected goals of EUR 140 MM in sales and EUR 20 MM EBITDA in 2014. With 34 plants in 15 countries on 4 continents Impreglon is a worldwide leader in surface technology.
