Wacker Neuson on the path to success despite weak market

Preliminary figures for 2013 - Annual Report to be published on March 31, 2014

(Munich, March 3, 2014) Preliminary figures show that the Wacker Neuson Group increased 2013 revenue and earnings relative to the previous year and achieved its goals for 2013. The Group remains optimistic about 2014.

Based on preliminary figures, Group revenue rose by 6 percent in fiscal 2013 to EUR 1,160 million (2012: 1,092 million). This figure was dampened by exchange rate fluctuations, however. Adjusted to discount these effects, revenue rose 8 percent. Wacker Neuson expanded its market share at national and international level, even managing to grow in certain markets that showed signs of contracting. All three business fields ( light equipment, compact equipment and services ( reported a rise in revenue relative to the previous year. Revenue also increased in Europe and the Americas. The Asia-Pacific region, however, performed slightly below the previous year's level due to a market downturn in Australia and New Zealand and exchange rate fluctuations.

With preliminary profit before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of around EUR 153 million and an EBITDA margin of 13.2 percent, the Group was able to further increase profitability in 2013 despite the highly competitive market backdrop (EBITDA 2012: EUR 142 million; EBITDA margin: 13.0 percent). Revenue and profit thus align with the Group's forecast from March 2013 (revenue of around EUR 1.2 billion; EBITDA margin in excess of 13.0 percent).

Profit before interest and tax (EBIT) increased by 12 percent to EUR 95 million (EBIT 2012: EUR 85 million) and thus twice as much as revenues. The EBIT margin thus rose to 8.2 percent (2012: 7.8 percent).

Eckert & Ziegler Awards Travel Grants to Young Scientists in Nuclear Medicine

Berlin, March 3, 2014. The Eckert & Ziegler Abstract Award is entering its seventh year. Young scientists can enter the competition with their innovative scientific research in the field of nuclear medicine. The deadline for submission is April 28, 2014. Each year, the Eckert & Ziegler Abstract Award supports young scientists and PhD students who would like to present their findings to a wider audience at the annual congress of the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM) in October 2014. Five travel grants of EUR 1,000 each will be awarded by Eckert & Ziegler, one of the leading manufacturers of isotope products in Europe, and the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM). The jury consists of a panel of independent, unbiased EANM experts. The five winners will receive their awards on October 22, 2014 at the EANM Annual Congress in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Not only are the awards entering their seventh year, they are also gaining increasing popularity in the industry. Last year, almost 600 young scientists from all over the world entered the competition in the hope of winning the coveted award.

"Nuclear medicine has huge potential as it can be used to diagnose diseases non-invasively, which would be impossible or very difficult to detect with other methods. It helps patients in terms of early diagnosis and in deciding on a targeted therapy. This is why we hope to help ensure with these awards that the substantial progress in medical imaging can soon be transformed into more precise, faster or less expensive methods of diagnosis and therapy," commented Karolin Riehle, spokeswoman for Eckert & Ziegler AG.

Eligibility for Participation All EANM members who are not older than 38 years of age at the time of submission are eligible to participate. Applications can be submitted electronically at http://eanm14.eanm.org. The submission deadline is April 28, 2014.

Meet Nikki Beach Corporate Executive Chef Brian Malloy

Q: Describe your cuisine? A: The cuisine at Nikki Beach is, in part, inspired by our locations around the world. Many of our locations have a very rich and distinct culinary tradition, such as Spain and Thailand, so it is very important that we pay homage to those locations at our flagship Miami venue. While we are not afraid to take risks with exotic, culturally rich food, our tenet has always been simple, pure flavors and high quality ingredients. Most of our produce is flown in from our farm in North Carolina and all of our seafood is extremely fresh as we take advantage of our South Florida surroundings and the variety of fresh fish and crustaceans that are available to us here.

Q: What makes your restaurant stand out among the res t ? A: Nikki Beach is not only about fresh and delicious food.we are about a way of life. What we offer here is something rarely found in our constantly on the go world a chance to get a taste of the sweet life, a place where you can go and be with friends and family surrounded by an atmosphere that is exquisite and relaxing. We also have a world renowned reputation for throwing amazing parties and events. Nikki Beach is the sort of place where you can come in for lunch and end up staying until the wee hours of the night, finally leaving with a smile on your face and likely a few new friends. Nikki Beach Miami is also Known for One of the Best Sunday Brunches around, with over eight live show-cooking stations and a dozen self-serve stations. After 4pm when the brunch is over, we kick straight into party mode until 5am, its called Amazing Sundays for a reason.
