DATA MODUL AG provided earnings guidance for the financial year 2018. The company raises its EBIT-forecast for the current financial year. For the financial year 2018, the management board now expects EBIT to increase by 19% to 30% compared to the number of EUR 15.9 million for the financial year 2017. So far, an increase in EBIT of 4% to 16% compared to the previous year had been forecast. The background to the forecast adjustment is the surprisingly positive business development in the fourth quarter of 2018 compared with the same period of the previous year. The annual forecast for sales (increase by 5% to 15% compared to the number of EUR 218.3 for the previous year) remains unchanged.
