Incap Group’s net turnover in January–September was 64.4 million euro and operating profit for the reporting period 1.2 million euro. The growth of net turnover in 2000 is expected to reach the forecast level, which is higher by about one quarter than a year previously. The group’s operating profit will be at the same level as last year.
Profitability during the last quarter will probably be affected, even more than estimated, by problems in the availability of components at the different stages of the subcontracting chain in electronics business. Part of the deliveries scheduled for this year will have to be postponed to early 2001. The growth and profitability of furniture business will develop as planned.
