Zeiss has announced that in the past fiscal year, it increased both revenue and earnings to a record level. Revenue rose by 10% to €5.348 billion. At €770 million, earnings before interest and tax were significantly above the level of the previous year, the company said.
“All four segments – Research & Quality Technology, Medical Technology, Vision Care/Consumer Products and Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology – are either at or above their target returns,” said Professor Michael Kaschke, President and CEO of Carl Zeiss AG.
“This development was not and is not just a matter of course. Rather, it is the result of the tremendous efforts made by all employees and partners over a long period of time,” said Prof Kaschke. www.zeiss.com
