Songwon Industrial Group announces Financial Results for Q1/2015
• Sales in Q1 totaled 157’045 Mil. KRW
• Gross profit amounted to 24’971 Mil. KRW
• The gross profit margin is at 15.9%
(firmenpresse) - Ulsan, Korea – May 15, 2015 – Songwon Industrial Group (www.songwon.com) today announced its financial results for Q1. The Group achieved sales of 157’045 Mil. KRW and a gross profit margin of 15.9% - an increase of 3.4% compared to the Q1/2014.
Songwon started well into the year 2015, following a difficult 2014 (particularly Q1/2014) and despite challenging market conditions.
Global currency issues combined with sales price pressure resulting from continuously decreasing raw material costs, customers purchasing with shorter lead times and events such as the West Coast shut downs in the U.S. have all contributed to a slight decrease in consolidated sales.
However, Songwon’s production sites ran steadily without any disruptions during Q1/2015 which led to a significantly improved gross profit margin of 15.9%.
Despite the ongoing uncertainty relating to foreign exchange rates, political instabilities and unpredictable regional economic developments, we expect to see a positive increase in demand in the coming months from customers who previously postponed orders to profit from the decreased raw material prices.
