'With the first-time consolidation of our US-subsidiary Self Industries, Ringmetall Group grew into a whole new dimension', Christoph Petri, spokesperson of the Managing Board of Ringmetall Group, emphasizes. 'Furthermore despite decreasing steel prices, we managed to increase our revenues in our existing business in comparison to previous year's quarter.'

The EBITDA of the segment rose by 72.2 percent to EUR 3.2 million (Q1 2015: EUR 1.8 million).
The revenues of the Industrial Handling business segment amounted to EUR 3.9 million and thus 7.3 percent below previous year's level (Q1 2015: EUR 4.2 million). Due to a higher gross margin and cost savings, the EBITDA amounting to EUR 0.25 million was 11.2 percent above previous year (Q1 2015: EUR 0.22 million).
Against the background of increased interest of capital market participants in Ringmetall Group, the company will now professionalize its communication with investors and build-up an internal Investor Relations department. The company assigned experienced interim manager Ingo Middelmenne, MD of the management consultancy Middelmenne & Cie., to initially set-up the department. 'Ringmetall will continue to grow. A regular and transparent communication with our investors is thus very important to us', spokesperson Petri underlines. 'With Mr. Middelmenne, an experienced manager joins our team, who will position our company even better in the markets. In his position as Head of Investor Relations he will support us in building up the necessary internal and external structures and accompany us on our path into the regulated market of Deutsche Börse, which is planned mid-term.'
Furthermore the Managing Board see positive effects of the current market environment on further acquisitions of smaller scale. 'We will continue to use our predominant market position in the area of clamping rings production and the stable and sustained cash flows resulting from this, to strengthen our group's product pipeline with attractive acquisitions', Konstantin Winterstein, Chief Officer Operations & Technology, explains. 'We are currently in advanced discussions with a couple of interesting companies and are evaluating the economic and technologic attractivity of further M&A deals.'
