DGAP-Ad-hoc: NANOGATE SE / Key word(s): Forecast Göttelborn, January 25, 2018 - Nanogate SE, a leading global specialist for design-oriented, high-tech surfaces and components, publishes its earnings forecast for 2018 following the successful acquisition of the plastics division of HTI High Tech Industries AG. According to the forecast, the operating result (EBITDA) should reach more than EUR 24 million, despite seven-figure transaction and integration costs. As announced above, the Group expects sales to increase to more than EUR 220 million. In parallel, Nanogate is planning on investments in the significant double-digit million range in 2018 for the implementation of the announced innovation program and the expansion of capacities. Because of this, increased depreciation and finance costs will affect the consolidated net income. The Group reached its forecast of more than EUR 170 million in sales with an operating result (EBITDA) of at least EUR 20 million in the 2017 fiscal year. With the now completed acquisition, Nanogate is expanding its market position in the area of high-quality plastic components and surfaces. Internationalization is also being strengthened. As part of the transaction agreed on in November 2017, the companies HTP Slovakia (Vráble, Slovakia) and HTP Electronics (Neudörfl, Austria) will be completely integrated into the Nanogate Group. The companies will be traded under the names Nanogate Slovakia s.r.o. and Nanogate Electronic Systems GmbH, respectively. In addition, Nanogate has acquired a 50 % stake in HTP Austria (Fohnsdorf, Austria) as part of a strategic partnership (including a later purchase option). The non-cash capital increase to pay the purchase price should be carried out in the next few weeks. The purchase price is being paid exclusively in shares as part of a non-cash capital increase of 275,000 shares at the Xetra closing price as of January 24, 2018.
Information and Explanation of the Issuer to this News: NB: Further information can be found in the press release also published today. Nanogate will publish its annual report 2017 in April 2018.
