LOEBEN, AUSTRIA -- AT&S reported consolidated revenue increased 14% from a year ago in its fiscal first quarter to €399 million.
Adjusted for currency effects, consolidated revenue rose by 19%. Higher volume made for ongoing price pressure and negative exchange rate effects during the reporting period.
EBITDA rose 9% to €71 million, a margin of 17.7%.
The PCB fabricator offered a first-half revenue forecast of €820 million and EBITDA margin of 20%, and reaffirmed its full year outlook.
