HÖRMANN Industries GmbH (corporate bond, German Securities Code Number (WKN): A2TSCH) today published its consolidated interim report for the first nine months of 2020.

As part of the project for installing ETCS equipment, HÖRMANN Kommunikation & Netze has taken on the construction work involved in implementing cable routing systems and power supply equipment on the route from Duisburg to Freiburg.

This involved a lot of work with road-rail vehicles while the track was closed. As well as installing cable troughing alongside the railway, the company’s specialists excavated troughs crossing from one side of the track to the other, both open and in the form of buried pipes.

HÖRMANN Gruppe veröffentlicht Geschäftsbericht 2019

Die HÖRMANN Industries GmbH (Unternehmensanleihe, WKN: A2TSCH) hat heute ihren Jahresabschluss 2019 veröffentlicht. Im Geschäftsjahr 2019 wurde mit 622,2 Mio. € ein Umsatz auf Vorjahresniveau erwirtschaftet (Vorjahr: 624,1 Mio. €). Die Gesamtleistung verringerte sich von 675,1 Mio. € in 2018 um 33,9 Mio. € oder 5,0 % auf 641,2 Mio. €, was vor allem durch die zum 1. April 2019 erfolgte Entkonsolidierung der HÖRMANN Automotive Penzberg GmbH und einem gegenüber 2018 geringeren Bestandsaufbau bedingt ist. Das Ergebnis vor Zinsen, Steuern und Abschreibungen (EBITDA) lag bei 35,6 Mio. € (Vorjahr: 41,8 Mio. €), das operative Ergebnis vor Zinsen und Steuern (EBIT) belief sich auf 28,3 Mio. € (Vorjahr: 30,5 Mio. €), das EBIT einschließlich Sondereffekte erreichte 23,7 Mio. € (Vorjahr: 25,1 Mio. €). Das Geschäftsjahr 2019 schloss mit einem Konzernjahresüberschuss von 9,9 Mio. € (Vorjahr: 14,6 Mio. €). Die Umsatzprognose wurde damit übertroffen, das Ergebnis liegt im Rahmen der Planung.

Light commercial vehicles can vary widely owing to the extremely broad range of applications for which they are used, which currently means costly conversion processes requiring a lot of tools. In addition, mass-produced electric light commercial vehicles are often based on conventional platforms designed for internal combustion engines. This wastes precious space because these vehicles are not systematically designed with the use of alternative drive systems in mind.
