COMMENT Twelve-month Contractor Equipment sales were US$305.3 million, up 10% on 2004’s US$278.7 million. This rise was driven by higher sales in both the paint store and home center channels in the Americas and increased sales in Europe. In the Industrial/ Automotive Equipment Division, 2005 sales were US$367.1 million compared with US$274.6 million in 2004, a 34% increase. Acquired businesses contributed 25 percentage points of the increase while growth throughout most of the major product categories and all geographic regions contributed 9 percentage points. Lubrication Equipment Division sales were US$59.3 million versus US$51.7 million a year ago, a 15% rise.

This double-digit increase was primarily driven by higher sales in the Americas. Fourth quarter Contractor Equipment sales were US$72.6 million, up 4% from a year earlier.

Industrial/ Automotive Equipment’s fourth quarter sales were US$97.4 million versus US$77.5 million last year, a 26% increase. Acquired businesses contributed 24 percentage points of the rise. Lubrication Equipment sales in the fourth quarter were US$15.5 million, 13% up on last year’s US$13.8 million, reflecting strong sales in the Americas. ■
