PSB Industries reported consolidated earnings results for the first half ended June 30, 2015. For the period, the company reported revenue of EUR 168 million against EUR 130.7 million a year ago. Consolidated net income was EUR 11.3 million against EUR 5.8 million a year ago. The group's earnings before interest, taxes, and goodwill amortization (EBITA) were EUR 16.4 million, and represented 9.7% of revenues (EUR 14.7 million and 10.2% on a like-for-like basis), an increase of 60%. EUR 2.5 million of this improved result is owed to better management of cyclical factors (exchange rates, materials, energy), while the balance stems from careful management of the group's industrial performance.

For 2015, the company expects to post gains over the previous year and achieve an EBITA of about 9% at the real exchange rate.
