BUSINESS
For the equivalent scope, business in the first quarter has been a tale of contrasts: January was very dynamic, February and March rather morose. Thermador International's turnover increased by 19.7%, while that achieved in France by our biggest subsidiaries was similar to 2017. Consolidated organic growth came out at 3.2% with exactly the same number of business days. Despite this, we are satisfied with what is a better level than the first quarter of 2017 when we reported exceptional growth of 13.7%.
This moderate performance has been achieved in a distinctly inflationist context, caused by an increase in raw material prices and also by under-capacities in production for certain industrial valve products manufactured in China. Local authorities have introduced very radical anti-pollution measures which have resulted in a large number of factory closures.
During this first quarter, subsidiaries acquired in 2017 contributed to Ä11.6m which enabled us to achieve a global growth of more than 20%. We are, of course, highly committed to making a success of their integration.
PROSPECTS
The halt in growth observed over the past two months means that we are more cautious. However, we are very confident with an improving economic climate.
EXTRAORDINARY AND ORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF APRIL 9
