secunet Security Networks AG: preliminary figures for the 2013 financial year
[Essen, 23 January 2014] secunet Security Networks AG (ISIN DE0007276503, WKN 727650), a leading German supplier of high-quality IT security and an IT security partner of the Federal Republic of Germany, published its preliminary figures for its 2013 Annual Financial Statements today. The company reached its projected figures for both revenue and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT). The order book at the end of the year was above the previous year's level, and accordingly, secunet's growth forecast for the current 2014 financial year is good.
As forecast in October, in the 2013 financial year the secunet Group achieved revenue of Euro 63.9m (compared with Euro 67.2m in the previous year), as well as earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of Euro 3.7m (Euro 5.7m in the previous year).
'2013 was characterised by high expenditure for winning and implementing major projects, which is why our revenue and EBIT results are lower than last year,' commented Dr Rainer Baumgart, Chairman of the Management Board of secunet Security Networks AG.
As at 31 December 2013, the order book was worth Euro 40.3m, which represents a 7% increase compared with the figure at the end of 2012 (Euro 37.6m).
'We are starting the new year with an excellent order book. We also significantly optimised our products and customer support in 2013. secunet is a trusted supplier of high-quality security solutions, and in light of the current debate on information and data security, we expect demand to increase further,' explained Dr Rainer Baumgart. 'We are very confident that we will be able to continue the growth trend seen in previous years in the current financial year.'

President Barack Obama signs the $1.1 trillion spending bill that funds the federal government through the end of September, in Washington, Friday, Jan. 17, 2014 at Jackson Place, a conference center near the White House. Obama signed the measure the day before federal funding was set to run out.
Jacquelyn Martin, Associated Press
Seth Borenstein at The Associated Press crunched some different numbers about the new Federal Budget signed on Friday by President Barack Obama. The $1.1 trillion in spending is authorized by a bill that is 1,582 pages long and 370,445 words, numbers and symbols.
"So simple math comes up with $2.9 million per word average and $695 million per page average," Borenstein says, "though different parts of the budget package spend more than others sections."
A more concerning aspect of the bill's passage comes from how much time the senators spent on it.
"Taxpayers for Common Sense, a Washington spending watchdog, figured that senators spent slightly more than 69 hours before passing the bill," Borenstein says, "giving them just under two minutes per page to read it."
Borenstein couldn't resist applying the $2.9 million-a-word cost to his own 162-word AP story.
"At $2.9 million per word that comes to $470 million," he says. "A bargain."
Applying that cost to other documents has other interesting results.
"War and Peace," at that price per each of its 587,287 words, would cost $1.7 trillion.

- VTG subsidiary VOTG now certified to transport feedingstuffs
- The tank container logistics sector portfolio further strengthened and extended
Hamburg, 22 January, 2014. VTG Aktiengesellschaft (WKN: VTG999), one of the leading wagon hire and rail logistics companies in Europe, has expanded its business operations through its subsidiary VOTG. The company is now authorized to transport feedingstuffs, and has thereby succeeded in positioning itself on an even broader basis in the market. The GMP+ B4 certification ensures full compliance with the strict requirements associated with the transportation of these sensitive goods.
'The transport of feedingstuffs has been growing continuously over recent years. To this end, stringent demands have been placed on transport containers in terms of cleanliness to ensure that products do not suffer any damage. The certification shows that we fulfil these requirements to the fullest extent and that we are also able to respond to ever-increasing customer demands in matters of product cleanliness', says a delighted Heike Clausen, the Managing Director of VOTG. 'We have set up a tank container fleet specifically for this purpose and adapted our quality and transport documentation.'
Transporting products in accordance with the GMP+ guidelines for feedingstuffs has enabled VOTG to extend its product portfolio and reduce the company's dependency on individual product groups. The focus of the business shall remain on the transport of chemical and petroleum products. Instituting the GMP+ systems demonstrates that the company is open to new product types.

Seattle Seahawks player Richard Sherman held a press conference today in Seattle where he compared being called a "thug" to being called the "N-Word."
After Sunday's NFC Championship game against San Francisco, Sherman gave a brief, but memorable interview in which he razzed 49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree. Critics of Sherman repeatedly called him a "thug," notes Salon.com.
The only reason it bothers me is because it seems like its the accepted way of calling somebody the N-word nowadays, stated Sherman (video below).
Its like everybody else said the N-word, and then they say thug' and thats fine," added Sherman. "Thats where its kind of, you know, it kind of takes me aback. And its kind of disappointing, because they know. Whats the definition of a thug, really?
Ive fought that my whole life just coming from where I come from, stated Sherman. Just because you hear Compton, you hear Watts, you hear cities like that, you just think thug, hes a gangster, hes this, that, and the other."
Deadspin.com reported that following Shermans post-game interview, the word thug was used on television news broadcasts a whopping 625 times on Monday.
