Above-average earnings growth in 2013
In the 2013 financial year, the Nemetschek Group achieved revenues amounting to EUR 185.9 million, an increase of 6.2% over the previous year (EUR 175.1 million). The earnings from operating activities before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) rose more strongly than revenues. With EUR 46.3 million, the EBITDA increased by 13.0% compared to the previous year (EUR 40.9 million). Thus, Nemetschek was able to improve the EBITDA margin by 1.5 percentage points from 23.4% to 24.9% within a single year. The positive earnings development is also reflected in the net income for the year. With a rise of 23.0%, the net income for the year (group shares) rose to EUR 24.0 million (previous year: EUR 19.5 million). As a result, the earnings per share were EUR 2.49.
"We look back on a successful 2013 financial year and were able to significantly improve all major key figures compared to the previous year," says Patrik Heider, CFOO of Nemetschek AG. "In 2013 we succeeded in the continued implementation of our global growth strategy and made advances in major areas such as internationalization, acquisition, innovations and the integration of technological trends in our own solution portfolio. We have thus set the cornerstone for further profitable growth," Heider continues.
