Q1-3/2012 – LMH Segment

LMH Segment: Revenue

In Q1-3/2012, the LMH segment grew its revenue by 12% from €2,071 million in Q1-3/2011 to €2,323 million in Q1-3/2012. The segment considerably benefited from the high demand for LMH’s product and service offerings, especially from Germany, Western European countries and Asia.

LMH Segment: EBIT, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA

The EBIT in the LMH segment increased from €198 million in Q1-3/2011 by €42 million to €240 million in Q1-3/2012. In Q1-3/2012, EBIT was influenced by Non-recurring income of €10 million, primarily as a result of a €13 million one-time profit from the revaluation of the equity investment in Linde Creighton and the remeasurement of the purchase price obligations in connection with the acquisition of the remainder of outstanding shares. Additionally, a €3 million profit was generated in Q1/2012 through property sales in connection with the closure of the plant in Basingstoke. These positive effects were partly compensated by follow-up costs due to footprint measures. In Q1-3/2011, Non-recurring income of €10 million had been due to remeasurements in connection with the Linde Sterling investment, effected in Q2/2011. KION acquisition items in Q1-3/2012 amounted to €21 million compared to €20 million in the previous year period.

Adjusted EBIT increased by €43 million to €251 million in Q1-3/2012 compared to €208 million in Q1-3/2011. Adjusted EBIT margin consequently rose from 10.0% in Q1-3/2011 to 10.8% in Q1-3/2012. The Adjusted EBITDA in the LMH segment amounted to €385 million and the Adjusted EBITDA margin to 16.6% in Q1-3/2012 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of €338 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.3% in Q1-3/2011.

Q3/2012 – STILL Segment

STILL Segment: Revenue

In Q3/2012, STILL generated slightly higher revenue of €404 million compared to €396 million in Q3/2011. This revenue increase mainly came from the Eastern European countries.

STILL Segment: EBIT, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA

The STILL segment’s EBIT increased by €2 million to €22 million in Q3/2012 due to efficiency gains and cost savings. In Q3/2012, EBIT was impacted by Non-recurring items of negative €8 million, mainly due to restructuring expenses and relocation costs in connection with the ceased production in Montataire and Bari. In Q3/2011, Non-recurring charges totalling €2 million had been related to relocation costs, severance payments and expenses with respect to the combination of STILL and OM. KION acquisition items amounted to €2 million in Q3/2012 compared to €1 million in the previous year period.
