ZEISS posted a modest 2% revenue gain in the financial year 2013/2014, notwithstanding unfavourable currency effects and competitive pressures.
Sales totalled more than $6 billion CDN, a slight increase from the $5.885 billion in the prior year. Profits before taxes were up 14%, to $505 million CDN.
Sales of Carl Zeiss Vision declined 6%, from $1.181 billion CDN to $1.068 billion CDN.
According to Dr. Michael Kaschke, President and CEO of Carl Zeiss AG, the stagnation of the world economy could slow the Group’s global growth down in 2014/2015. Dr. Kaschke still expects an overall stable development in revenue and profits.
