Ceconomy AG (CEC.XE) expects first-quarter earnings to decline,
despite higher sales, the company said Friday.
The German retailer of electrical consumer goods said it expects
earnings before interest and taxes of about 260 million euros
($317.8 million) in the first quarter of its financial year, down
from EUR308 million a year earlier.
Sales are likely to increase 0.5% to EUR6.94 billion on a
like-for-like basis, the company said.
Ceconomy said it attributes the lower earnings to Black Friday
price reductions, which pushed December sales into November, and
costs stemming from building up its holding, after the company spun
off from Metro AG (B4B.XE) in July.
