Semperit: In view of the current developments surrounding the Corona/CoVid-19 virus, the publicly listed Semperit Group, in cooperation with the crisis management team of the Austrian federal government, delivers more than 60 million gloves to provide protective equipment for medical personnel in Austria. The examination and protective gloves, which are produced at the Sempermed production site in Kamunting, Malaysia, will be brought to Austria on four flights operated by Austrian Airlines until the end of April 2020; distribution will be handled by the Red Cross. "We are pleased that we are able to contribute to a better management of the Corona crisis in Austria with our medical protective gloves and we are proud of our employees, who are making this possible even in this difficult situation with their tireless efforts close to their limits," says Martin Füllenbach, Chief Executive Officer of Semperit AG Holding.

S&T: The technology group S&T AG presents record results for the ninth year in a row. The company recorded a 13% increase in sales over the previous year to Euro 1,122.9 mn (previous year: Euro 990.9 million), thus exceeding the billion-euro mark for the first time. The operating result before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) rose by 23% to Euro 111.7 mn (PY: Euro 90.5 mn). The order backlog and project pipeline also reached new record levels with increases of over 30%. The excellent financial situation also allows S&T AG to continue its annually increasing dividend policy despite the current "corona crisis": The Management Board of S&T AG will therefore propose a dividend of 19 cents (PY: 16 cents) for the past financial year to the Annual General Meeting. However, these excellent figures are dwarfed by the global spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the uncertainty that accompanies it. "We have closed the 2019 financial year with excellent figures and are very confident of continuing our success, even under the changed conditions. With our technical solutions and products, for example in the medical technology sector, and the record cash position of Euro 312 million, we are well positioned and will emerge from the crisis stronger than before." states Hannes Niederhauser, CEO of S&T AG.
S&T: weekly performance: 23.23%
