Update: Q3 results win on bottom-line growth

Cenit has reported Q3 results showing 12.8% y-o-y growth in EBIT after a 2.9pp gross margin gain that offset the impact of a 4.5% sales decline. The results support the company’s full-year guidance of stable revenues and an 8-10% increase in EBIT, and have led us to increase our 2016 EBIT forecast by 1.5%. We believe that the recently announced acquisition of Coristo, a SAP product structure management specialist, should add value to the group by strengthening Cenit’s product offering and potentially leading to the creation of new proprietary software.
