2015-08-11 07:47Würzburg, 11.08.2015 – In the second quarter of 2015 Koenig & Bauer (KBA) came significantly closer to achieving its target of positive results in all business segments. In the first six months the printing press manufacturer was able to greatly increase its order intake with a plus of 33.2% year-on-year to €607.5m. At €597.9m group order backlog on 30 June was around 43% higher than at the beginning of the year. In contrast, at €426.9m sales at the mid-year mark were below the previous year (€517.8m) and thus proportionally behind the group’s annual target of over €1bn. The disproportionate distribution of sales to the second half-year was previously announced by the management board. Although KBA’s cost base has been substantially reduced by Fit@All, the lag in sales impacted on earnings. President and CEO Claus Bolza-Schünemann: “Group profit before taxes of €6.9m in the second quarter led to an improvement in our EBT from –€17.7m after three months to –€10.8m mid-year. We are particularly pleased with the major improvements in earnings in Sheetfed and Digital & Web. Despite this half-time shortfall, with catching-up in mind we continue to target an EBT margin of up to 2% of sales for 2015.” Read more ... -

Bereits zum 13. Mal gab KBA in der ersten Sommerferienwoche jungen Mädchen einen praxisnahen Einblick in die technische Berufswelt im Hightech-Maschinen-bau. „Mit der schon langjährigen Beteiligung wollen wir das Berufsspektrum der Mädchen erweitern, ihnen Chancen und Anforderungen von technischen Berufen aufzeigen und sie für diese Berufsfelder begeistern,“ so der Leiter der KBA-Werkberufsschule Reinhard Munz. „Und auch dem hartnäckigen Klischee entgegenwirken, dass technische Berufe eher für Jungs geeignet seien.“ Read more ... -
