The company attributed the increase to “industrial operations improvement, lower impact of non-recurrent income and higher financial income earned on invested liquid assets accounts”.
EBITDA climbed 9.4% to EUR163.3m. Sales grew 6.1% to reach EUR2.28bn.
“For 2012, at constant exchange rates, the growth estimate of 3% announced earlier both for net revenues and EBITDA is confirmed,” the company said.
