First quarter 2015-2016 trading update

28 August 2015

(Turnover of continued operations for the 3 months ended 30 June 2015)

  • 4,4% year-over-year turnover decrease compared to the first quarter of last year
  • Hiring of 43 new young graduates to start early September

Marc De Keersmaecker, General Manager of RealDolmen, commented:
“Infrastructure Products turnover is resilient with increased workplace and volume sales offset by reducing datacenter sales, as a consequence of the cloud evolution. Application Services Business, part of Professional Services, is growing steadily. Transformation of Infrastructure Services Business is slower than planned. In Business Solutions we approach business in a more selective manner to improve margin, which has a negative impact on turnover.

I am confident for the future, and recruitment remains our absolute priority. Therefore, I am excited to welcome the forty-three young graduates who start their career at RealDolmen early September.”
