As expected, the economy in the main markets China, Europe and NAFTA developed in a slightly positive way, while raw-material oriented countries such as Russia and Brazil suffered further setbacks. Worldwide car production showed growth of only 1% compared to previous year.
In a slow global economy, EMS was able to generate new business worldwide, realise new applications and successfully expand business with innovative speciality products. Sales prices in relation to raw material cost were slightly lower than in the same period of the previous year. Currency changes had only a minor effect.
For 2016, EMS continues to expect net sales and net operating income (EBIT) slightly above the previous year.
