Geographical breakdown of sales(continuing operations) 3Q06 3Q07
Key figures Balance Sheet * Only including continuing operations
Expectations 2007 • Highest order book ever increases sales growth targets for 2007 to 7% and 9%, higher than our target of 6% to 9%, despite the strong dollar decline • Strong profit increase for 2007 confirmed versus 2006, despite the weak dollar • We expect an EBIT margin of up to 9% for the reported operations and slightly lower in the continuing operations, due to a higher negative currency impact and the internal profit of the mechanical subcontracting unit, which is no longer included
New Capital Structure • We are expected to receive the proceeds from the sales of BarcoVision upon closing, which will create a cash surplus • The Board of Directors will propose to the shareholders to return around € 70 million from the divestiture to the shareholders by a capital reduction • Even after the capital reduction, Barco will still have a strong balance sheet, to support external and internal growth and to create higher shareholder return • Timeline around mid 2008
