EPS was reported at 9.5 euro cents.
MAI’s sales fell by 1.4% yoy to EUR 63.8 mln in 2008 from EUR 64.7 mln in 2007 mainly due to lower European export sales, whilst EBIT was recorded 1.3% lower at EUR 12.2 mln.
The Board of Directors issued a dismal forecast for 2009, predicting that profitability will be lower than the 2008 performance.
