The Jungheinrich Group closed the 2016 financial year successfully, posting significant increases in all key performance indicators. The main growth drivers were new truck business and the ‘Logistics Systems’ division. New record highs were achieved in terms of incoming orders, net sales, production and all earnings figures. The key performance indicators were improved considerably in the first two months of the year, underway as well.
Hans-Georg Frey, Chairman of the Board of Management of Jungheinrich AG: “We stayed our strong course for growth in 2016. For the first time, we surpassed the €3 billion mark in terms of both net sales and incoming orders. We outgrew our peer group and expanded our share of the global market. Jungheinrich is right on track towards achieving its strategic goal for 2020.”
“In 2016, the Group’s earnings were boosted to €154 million. Jungheinrich has steadily increased its earnings for the benefit of its shareholders in recent years.
The good level of incoming orders by the end of last year has been maintained this year and gives us a positive outlook on the first six months underway. Based on the good figures posted in the first two months of the current year, if the developments witnessed in 2017 thus far continue, we should be able to achieve incoming orders of between €3.4 and €3.5 billion and consolidated net sales in the range of €3.3 to €3.4 billion. Based on our assessments, EBIT for the current fiscal year should total between €250 and €260 million.”
