OKMETIC REVISES UPWARDS ITS GUIDANCE FOR 2015
Okmetic revises its guidance on net sales and operating profit for 2015.
According to the revised guidance, net sales and operating profit for 2015 are
estimated to clearly exceed the level of 2014. According to the previous
guidance, net sales and operating profit for 2015 were estimated to exceed the
level of 2014.
Based on unaudited preliminary results, net sales of the first quarter 2015
amount to 21.6 million euro and operating profit to 2.9 million euro (Q1/2014:
17.4 and 0.9 million euro). Better-than-anticipated demand for sensor wafers
contributed to the strong development in the beginning of the year, as well as
strengthening of US dollar compared to euro.
Okmetic will publish its interim report for January-March 2015 on Wednesday 29
April 2015 approximately at 8 a.m. Finnish time (EEST). A briefing for
investors, analysts and media will take place on the same day. 29 April at 8.30
a.m. in Helsinki Stock Exchange building, Fabianinkatu 14, Helsinki (2nd floor,
entrance via Nasdaq's reception). The result will be presented by President Kai
Seikku.
