Heidelberg Releases Final Half-Year Figures, Including Stable Sales

The free cash flow for the first half-year was negative at €-19 million. This was partly due to the outflow of funds resulting from the plant expansion in China. The net financial debt for the first six months was comparatively low at €279 million. At the beginning of the previous financial year, this debt was still as high as €695 million. The equity ratio remained stable at around 30 percent during the period under review.
