Outlook Komax Group

The current macroeconomic environment remains characterized by wide-ranging

uncertainty. Against this backdrop, Komax is focusing on the factors that it can directly

influence itself, and is therefore looking to its clear strengths such as its innovative

drive and customer orientation. Based on these foundations, Komax will further

enhance its profile and continue to seize – after careful scrutiny – opportunities to

further advance the company. From today's standpoint, another good result is

envisaged for 2016.

Outlook Komax Wire

Supported by the dynamic momentum of the automotive industry, as well as the

ongoing global trend towards the further automation of manual processes in wire

processing and increased processing quality, we expect demand to remain strong from

today’s perspective. Komax Wire has started the year with a strong order book. Given

this backdrop, the business unit can be expected to post another good result for the

first half of 2016.

Outlook Komax Medtech

The commercial environment facing Komax Medtech remains challenging. However,

given its strong order book at the start of the year, with its numerous repeat projects

and highly promising orders from new customers, Komax Medtech is confident that net

sales will increase in 2016 on the back of better balanced capacity utilization and that

profitability will increase beyond the target range.
