SGS 2016 HALF YEAR RESULTS

SGS Half Year Results 2016
SGS Half Year Results 2016

The SGS Group posted strong performance in the first semester with revenue growth of 7.0% on a constant currency basis to CHF 2.9 billion, nearly equally split between organic revenue growth of 3.4% and 3.6% contributed by recently acquired companies. On a historical reported basis, Group revenues increased by 5.4%.

Trading conditions remained challenging due principally to reductions and delays in expenditures by our clients in the Energy and Mining industries which impacted our Oil, Gas & Chemicals, Industrial and Minerals businesses. Yet, the achievement of solid growth during this challenging period demonstrates the strength of the Group`s strategy, the ongoing focus on operating efficiency and the resilience of its diversified portfolio.
