MPC Capital AG adjusts outlook for financial year 2018

Hamburg, 9 November 2018 - The Management Board of MPC Münchmeyer Petersen Capital AG (Deutsche Börse Scale, ISIN DE000A1TNWJ4) today decided to adjust the Group forecast for the financial year 2018. The Management Board now anticipates a decline in revenues from EUR 47.3 million in the previous year to EUR 40 million to EUR 42 million in the 2018 financial year (previously: revenue growth of at least 10%, corresponding to total revenues of at least EUR 52 million) with slightly positive earnings before taxes (EBT) (previously: disproportionate increase in EBT, corresponding to absolute EBT of at least EUR 19.3 million).

The forecast adjustment is caused by delays and the reassessment of the probability of project realizations, particularly the initiation of a large-volume infrastructure project. Due to current developments, the Management Board no longer expects to complete the projects this year and to generate corresponding revenues for the Company.

The Management Board emphasizes that it does not see the sustained development of the Company and the implementation of the growth strategy disturbed by the project delays and the corresponding adjustment of the forecast. 

Key financial figures: Explanations of the key financial figures used can be found in the Annual Report for the 2017 financial year published on the Company's website (see page 41) under the following link: https://www.mpc-capital.com/reports.
