COMMENT
COMMENT At DKr12 186 million, Minerals’ order intake in the first nine months of 2008 was up 100% on the first three quarters of 2007, reflecting in part organic growth and the acquisition of GL&V Process in August 2007 (see Pump Industry Analyst, August 2007). 8
Pump Industry Analyst
Minerals’ turnover in the first three quarters of 2008 came in at DKr7056 million, 72% up on the same period in 2007. The higher turnover reflects increased order backlog at the beginning of the year, in part reflecting the acquisition of GL&V Process. ■ www.flsmidth.com
Interpump Group’s third quarter 2008 sales of 101.5 million were in line with a year ago. While sales in the Hydraulic sector were down slightly overall, Hydraulic’s European companies saw sales rise 2.0%. After six quarters of declines, sales for the US subsidiary Muncie rose by 4.1% in dollar terms. When translated into euros however, Muncie’s sales decreased 4.5%. Turnover in the Industrial sector increased 1.1% to 54 million. At 7.3 million, Electric Motors’ sales were down 14.8% on the third quarter of 2007, reflecting lower sales
to an Italian manufacturer of high-pressuire washers who has moved some manufacturing to the Far East. For the nine months ended 30 September 2008, Hydraulic sales were down 0.4% on the first nine months of 2007. The European companies’ sales rose 9.1%. Muncie sales fell 4.8% in dollar terms and by 15.9% in euros. Turnover in the Industrial sector reached 167.9 million, up 5.4%, while Electric Motors sales were down 19% to 27.9 million. ■ www.interpumpgroup.it
