SMT Scharf AG (WKN 575198, ISIN DE0005751986) is reporting a considerable improvement in its operating results during the first time months of the current fiscal year. The declining revenue trend at the start of the year stabilised in the third quarter, reflecting robust service business offsetting reductions in new equipment business.
As Chief Executive Officer Hans Joachim Theiss comments on current business trends: "Although our customers in our target markets continue to invest very defensively, prospects in the mining sector and among its suppliers have improved markedly. There is much that would suggest that the cyclical low has been traversed.
